Submissions are open now and will close on April 15th, 2021. More details on the submission process can be found here, details on what’s new for 2021 can be found here. 

We appreciate all the work that goes into submitting for the conference. However, you will be required to submit again to be considered for the Agile2021 program. You are welcome to submit a similar session as long as it fits within the new tracks and requirements. More information on the submission process can be found here. 

We have some exciting sponsorship opportunities and would be happy to discuss further with you, please email us.

No, unlike prior years you will not get a complementary membership.  We do encourage you to signup for membership prior to registration so you can save a minimum of $150 when you use the membership rate. For more information on membership click here.

Yes you can. If you hold a PMI certification, you can claim Professional Development Units (PDUs) for attending sessions at Agile2021 via the Continuing Certification Requirements System. 

Report each conference session separately under the Education category.
The content of the session must align with PMI’s Talent Triangle® in at least one of the following skills areas:

• Technical project management: Knowledge, skills and behaviors related to specific domains of Project, Program and Portfolio Management.
• Leadership: Knowledge, skills and behaviors specific to leadership-oriented, cross-cutting activities that help an organization achieve its business goals.
• Strategic and business management: Knowledge of and expertise in the industry or organization that enhances performance and better delivers business outcomes.

You can earn one (1) PDU for each hour of a session that relates to the PMI Talent Triangle. Because Agile2021 sessions are 50 minutes in length, you can earn up to .75 PDUs for attending a full session. You can submit PDUs in .25 increments.

If a session relates to multiple parts of PMI’s Talent Triangle® only a portion of a session relates to topics relevant to the PMI Talent Triangle skill areas, you should calculate PDUs by the percentage of the overall content focused on the applicable skill area.

If you are selected for audit of your PDU submission, your registration confirmation can be used as documentation of your attendance.

Keep in mind that you are required to complete a specific number of PDUs in each area of the PMI Talent Triangle each renewal cycle. The number of PDUs varies for each certification, so refer to the PMI Continuing Certification Requirements Handbook for specific requirements and additional information about claiming PDUs.

If you present a session at Agile2021, you can claim .75 PDU for every 50 minute session you present under the Giving Back category in the Continuing Certification Requirements System. There are limits on the numbers of Giving Back PDUs that can be claimed, so you should review the PMI Continuing Certification Requirements Handbook for specific details.

If you don’t find an answer to your questions in the handbook, you can also contact PMI’s customer care team.

Yes! Each hour of your continuing education — the time you spend reading articles, volunteering, attending events such as Agile2021, and taking courses — equals one “Scrum Education Unit,” or SEU. Presenting, coaching, and attending sessions all count as SEU-eligible activities. We ask that you add a certification-specific number of SEUs before you may renew your certification every two years. This maintains the credibility of your Scrum Alliance certification.

Learning, connecting and sharing is at the heart of the conference. There is no substitute for face-to-face contact, and in a virtual event is designed to enhance networking opportunities between attendees, speakers, and sponsors during one-on-one meetings and networking platforms. We feel day passes detract from this high-quality experience, so we do not offer them.

Ideally, reliable Internet connection, a webcam if you wish to have face – to – face interactions with participants, and a headset with microphone.

Agile2021 will use Swoogo as the virtual environment. Talks will be streamed through Vimeo and workshops will take place in Zoom.   

Swoogo’s preferred browser is Chrome or Firefox and can also be successfully used on Safari, Brave, or Microsoft Edge. We do not recommend using Internet Explorer because that browser isn’t actively updated anymore and therefore compatibility isn’t optimal with Swoogo.

For best experience we recommend the following:

• Confirm you have a reliable internet connection. At least 20 Mbps  is ideal for download. This can easily be determined by a quick speed test via google.
• Ensure you have the most updated version of your browser and test your sound/microphone quality ahead of time.

Business casual and comfortable. Make sure your background is not cluttered and you have good lighting on your face, not behind it for your one-on-one meetings.

There will be an opportunity to interact with attendees during workshops and in the Agile Alliance Lounge, 1-on-1 meetings and other social events. More opportunities to be announced closer to Agile2021

Yes- when you interact with sponsors and participate in sponsored areas you are giving consent to the sponsors to contact you for marketing purposes after the event and you are entitled after the fact to object to any further communication.
