How do you implement SAFe in a pragmatic way? STI has years of a variety of agile scaling experiences – Since 2008 We’ve been helping organizations such as Intel, Siemens, HP, Philips achieve agility at scale.

In our 4-day Implementing SAFe 4.6 workshops, our SPCTs share their experience to help bring to life SAFe’s principles, roles, events, artifacts. NEW: As of Oct 2019, the classes also include a preview of SAFe 5.0 so participants are well prepared to upgrade their certification and their transformation to SAFe 5.0 when it is released in 2020. SPC5 upgrade will be provided free of charge to SPC4s in good standing.

Attendees of STI SPC workshops get access to on-demand mentoring on their journey to become an SPC and their first steps in the SAFe implementation trenches.

Following along the SAFe Implementation Roadmap you will learn:
