Attendees explore the skills needed to facilitate and enable end-to-end value delivery through Agile Release Trains (ARTs) — and learn how to build a high-performing ART through servant leadership and coaching — by becoming a SAFe® Release Train Engineer (RTE).
During this three-day course, you will gain an in-depth understanding of the role and responsibilities of an RTE in the SAFe enterprise. Through experiential learning, we will examine the RTE role in a Lean-Agile transformation.
You will learn how to facilitate ART processes and execution, coach leaders, teams, and Scrum Masters in new processes and mindsets. We will also examine and discuss how to prepare, plan and execute a PI planning event — the primary enabler of alignment throughout all levels of a SAFe organisation.
