Agile Analysis and Story Writing

This hands-on workshop provides an in-depth understanding of user stories within an Agile context through both knowledge sharing and practical exercises.  We will explore the lifecycle of a story, from how it is created to how we know it is ‘done’. It is aimed at those with or without prior knowledge and/or experience of Agile.  You will leave the session with the tools you need to create, groom and manage excellent, appropriate user stories and use them effectively.This workshop is highly interactive and we actively encourage participants to bring along ‘troubled’ stories they might have, so that they can be discussed and improved.
