Bosnia Agile has, for the first time in Bosnia and Herzegovina, organized a two PMI-ACP (Project Management Institute Agile Certified Practitioner) exam preparation training. Education took place in Academy387 in Sarajevo 10th - 13th of October. Participants could, during the two-day training discuss about Agile projects, agile approach in large and complex environments. Also, in the interactive setting, trainer Igor Parać, has exchanged experiences in multicultural environment, and good and bad things about agile transition.

Project management institute (PMI) is a leading project management institute in the world. And Bosnia Agile is proud that the participants were from Sarajevo, Banja Luka, Bijeljina and other cities in Bosnia and Herzegovina.

“Introduction to software development” with Third High School Students

On Thursday, May 5, 2016. in the amphitheater of the Third High School in Sarajevo, an educative meetup for students was held on the topic “Introduction into software development”. The content of the meetup was deliberately chosen so that students of the Third High School could learn more about our organization, agile methodologies and the wide area of opportunities that young people have in the field of software development.

Our colleges from Bosnia Agile could notice that students were focused and following the unique presentation from our college Jasmin Heljić. We were especially proud to see a great number of students attending this event. At the end of the presentation you could get the feeling that there is much more space for cooperation between Bosnia Agile and this school system, so that future generations could also learn and educate themselves about this topic.

We want to thank the Third gymnasium for being a wonderful host and we look forward for more cooperation in the near future.

Meetup presentation (in local language) is available here.
