Overview

Facilitating Lean-Agile Program Execution

Facilitate and enable end-to-end value delivery through Agile Release Trains (ARTs)—and learn how to build a high-performing ART by becoming a servant leader and coach—when you become a SAFe® Release Train Engineer and earn your SAFe® RTE certification.

During this three-day SAFe® Release Train Engineer certification course, gain an in-depth understanding of the role and responsibilities of an RTE in the SAFe® enterprise. Through experiential learning, examine the RTE role in a Lean-Agile transformation.
