What is PRINCE2 Agile®?
PRINCE2® is a standard method for effective project management that is used all over the world and can be tailored to suit any project that you manage. PRINCE2 Agile® combines the flexibility and responsiveness of agile with the clearly defined framework of PRINCE2 and provides guidance on how to practically apply both so you benefit from the best of both worlds.
These globally recognised qualifications will teach the fundamental skills needed to be a successful project manager, improve your ability to tailor the PRINCE2 method to agile projects, and most importantly, also improve your employment prospects. They also give you flexibility - you're not tied to a single industry as the framework can be applied in any organisation in any project of any scale.

Is PRINCE2 Agile the same as Scrum Master?
No, PRINCE2 Agile and Scrum Master are two separate certifications designed to teach different approaches to project management.
PRINCE2 Agile blends the traditional methodology of PRINCE2 with agile approaches to provide a structured and scalable approach to project management. Whereas the other qualification teaches the role of a Scrum Master within the Scrum framework. Scrum encourages project teams to organise work into time-boxed iterations enabling them to deliver products that meet customer needs efficiently and effectively.
