Starting her learning journey

In 2020, Brit Murray embarked upon the journey of a lifetime. An avid traveler and explorer, she set out on a journey of a different kind—a learning journey. 

She’d recently joined the Nashville Agile Coaching Exchange (ACE) and couldn’t believe the level of coaching talent. Inspired and equipped with her CSM qualification, she looked for the next step to advance her career and seek a better way to serve her Scrum teams.

Seeking to advance her coaching nous, she enrolled in classes to earn ICAgile's Agile Coaching and Agile Team Facilitation certifications. “The Bootcamp was the next step for my career,” Brit explains. “Coaching was where I wanted to go, and there were new tools and techniques; I wanted to bolster my toolkit.” 

SoftEd was recommended to Brit by the ACE community, and she wasn't disappointed. “My experience with SoftEd was fantastic. Everyone I engaged with was so supportive and gracious. They made me feel like I was the only student.”

The experiential learning environment suited Brit perfectly. She relished the opportunity to learn alongside the program’s coach cohort and gain insight from shared experiences and applied practice.  

“The trainer was a high calibre coach who really modeled the behaviors I was seeking to apply.  She brought so much new knowledge and fresh ideas to try in a safe environment.  I appreciated the learning structure–there was plenty of time for reflection and collaboration and so much valuable material for me to take away. I continue to use the materials a year later.”

After completing both courses and gaining the ICP-ACC and ICP-ATF certifications, Brit recognizes ICAgile as an industry leader in agile qualifications.
