Since 2016, the Lean-Agile Center of Excellence (LACE) has worked hand-in-hand with CCSQ's Information Services Group to guide, support, and foster the adoption of Agile, Scrum, Lean, and SAFe practices. By providing hands-on program and team level support and training to over 700 members of the CCSQ Community, we have supported and guided the CCSQ community to become committed Agile practitioners that value transparency and continuous improvement. 

We have worked closely with ISG program leadership to guide CCSQ’s transition to a product-driven software development approach, and provided direct coaching support for multiple ISG programs. Through portfolio assessment, training, and program/team level coaching, we have developed Lean-Agile change agents across the CCSQ community. The LACE provides:

  • Support of seven certified SAFe Program Consultants  

  • Experience guiding and optimizing Scrum, Kanban, and SAFe implementations 

  • Expertise in coaching and facilitating activities at the team and program level

The members of the LACE are experienced trainers who have collectively trained over 2000 learners in over 20 unique courses covering Lean/Agile ideas and practices organized into learning paths. In addition to traditional instructor led training, the LACE supports the community with open door "Bring Your Own" work sessions, where LACE Coaches will provide guidance on improving your techniques. See the full course catalog here.
