Teaching USW MSc students Agile Project Management

Laughlin Consultancy is delighted to announce our expanded partnership with the University of South Wales (USW). Paul Laughlin is now delivering two modules for two MSc programmes focussed on Agile Project Management.

This builds on the principles previously shared on Customer Insight Leader blog, in a series of two posts. Students are trained in the fundamentals of the AgilePM methodology from DSDM Consortium, as well as more commonly used Kanban, Scrum & Design Sprint methods.

These modules build on the existing partnership we announced with the MSc Data Science. Paul Laughlin now also delivers these Agile Project Management modules for both that qualification and MSc Financial Services Management. Students on both MSc programmes also benefit from commercial placements and a practical assignment to apply the knowledge gained.

Such cooperation between academic & commercial expertise is one of the reasons USW achieves 95% graduate employment (within 6 months). Laughlin Consultancy is proud to collaborate with such an approach.
