Salt Lake City, Utah - October 16, 2025 - In honor of Veterans Day and in continued support of America's service members, AgileDad, in partnership with Pivot Agility, is proud to offer a series of free, online training courses designed specifically for active-duty U.S. military personnel, reservists, and veterans. These courses help bridge the gap between military service and meaningful careers in Agile project management, product ownership, and product thinking.

This year marks the sixth consecutive year of AgileDad's free military training initiative, made possible by generous sponsorships covering 100% of course fees and materials.

📅 Veterans Week Training Schedule

Certified ScrumMaster: November 10-11, 2025

Certified Scrum Product Owner: November 12-13, 2025

Agile Implementation Accelerator: November 14, 2025

Product Thinking Fundamentals (with Pivot Agility): November 19, 2025

All courses are delivered live and online, led by certified instructors, and accessible to military personnel regardless of geographic location.

"Our veterans and service members already bring discipline, leadership, and collaboration to the table - the very qualities Agile is built upon," said V. Lee Henson, President and Founder of AgileDad. "This initiative is our way of giving back, helping these heroes transition into roles where they can continue to lead, adapt, and thrive."

"Veterans bring mission focus and humility; our job is to translate that into product outcomes and meaningful careers," added Roy Schilling, Founder of Pivot Agility and lead instructor for the Product Thinking course.

💬 A Veteran's Perspective

"I've taken quite a few courses through AgileDad and I keep coming back for more. I've used many different instructor-led trainings, but I've never experienced anything like this. Lee's ability to keep the entire audience engaged while respecting and energizing every participant is truly remarkable. You learn, you're heard, and you're part of something meaningful. I would take every course they offer if I could."
- Michael D., Tampa, FL - U.S. Marine Corps Veteran
