Impactful learning experiences require more than just theory & tools
Why Agilar is a reference in the Agile learning industry
Methodology & Quality
We continuously invest in learning and adopting the most modern principles and practices in the professional education industry. Our trainings follow the Training from the Back of the Room ® approach, which increases participants’ insights and learnings by allowing them to build connections with what they already know and how they could apply these new concepts or tools they are learning about. Specifically, our trainings are:
Engaging and collaborative - lots of practice and groups discussion
Practical and case-based - using real-life examples
Practice-oriented (how can I apply this?)
Highly valued (NPS > 65, Trustpilot rating > 4,9)

Thought Leadership
Agilar has been one of the world's leaders in providing exceptional training experiences. This is due to many reasons, including:
Our training practice was created by our Certified Scrum Trainers (CST), an exclusive credential given by the Scrum Alliance to trainers who demonstrate deep knowledge of Agile practices and frameworks, combined with excellence in training delivery. CSTs are capable of not just delivering engaging trainings, but also to adapt on-the-go based on participants’ context and level of knowledge. This creates uniquely valuable learning experiences.
We work with the leading certifying organizations such as the Scrum Alliance, Agile Leadership Journey, and IC Agile. Our trainers are active members of these training communities. This is one way we keep our training portfolio and learning methods up-to-date with the latest developments.
While we work closely with certifying organizations, our training portfolio is broader than that. Our practice leads take ownership of specific learning journeys and organizational needs to create a comprehensive training portfolio.
Given our expertise in leading change initiatives within organizations, we are capable of identifying the necessary skills or capabilities that need to be developed in specific contexts. This means we are able to create customized trainings based on specific needs.
Our experience in creating impactful trainings is partially based on the fact that we work with clear learning objectives that we are trying to deliver in a training. This improves our ability to customize training experiences (by aligning on expected outcomes), and also enables a clear assessment of skills learned. Ultimately enabling organizations to have a clearer view of the progress towards their learning & development goals.
Knowledge & Experience
With close to 20 years of experience in leading strategic change initiatives in organizations, Agilar is the training partner-of-choice for organizations looking to improve their understanding of business agility. Part of the reason for our trainings are so impactful is precisely that hands-on experience of leading change. We are not just going to go through theory and frameworks during the training, but rather we are using our experience in putting these concepts into practice in organizations of all shapes and sizes to ensure our trainings are able to connect the theory to the practice. We want to enable training participants to do or change things once they leave the training. And we can achieve this because:
We have 50+ years of combined training experience in-house
Our trainings are led by experts who know the topic and have experience putting it into practice
We use proprietary training content & tools we've developed over the years to help make learnings actionable
We were pioneers in applying Agile ways of working outside of software and training non-software teams in using Agile frameworks and practices
Our library of case studies and exercises provide examples to inspire ideas and actions
