June 3-6, 2025
Enter a Magical World…
...where vikings rock the CMMI® in the workplace, pirates use it to be (measurably) nicer, and aliens wield it to plan their next invasion.
Plus, did somebody say
dragons?
Seriously?
Yes, seriously.* Our industry-leading
Foundations of Capability class plunges you into a sci-fi fantasy world of vikings, pirates, aliens, and more. You'll learn CMMI by tackling
mini-scenarios as you journey through our magical world of
Fantastica.
Prefer the real world? Fear not. We also toss in dozens of exercises that stick to
reality.
We make CMMI fun and practical.
AI-assisted image generation, high-quality video snippets, and licensed music combine to ensure that
this class is like no other. You'll stay wide awake and have so much fun that you'll
learn much more effectively than in those soulless death-by-PowerPoint classes you're used to.
Still doubting it? Take a look at these
25 sample slides. Then scroll down to the bottom of this page and enroll now, while you can.
Our Foundations of Capability classes sell out months in advance.
* And yes, these are actual ISACA / CMMI Institute-certified classes -- with our unique touches.
