Agile2024 – The European Experience brings together software developers, QA professionals, UX designers, infrastructure engineers, data scientists and more to learn from world-class experts and practice their craft together.

Connecting and sharing is at the heart of the conference. There is no substitute for face-to-face contact, and the event is designed to enhance networking opportunities between attendees, speakers, and sponsors. We feel that day passes detract from this high-quality experience, so we do not offer them.

If you’re interested in attending Agile2024 – The European Experience, but you aren't sure how to convince your organization or company to fund the trip, we’ve come up with a sample letter that you can use as a starting place for crafting your own request for attendance. Just copy, paste and edit the letter as needed. If you have questions about earning PDUs or SEUs, please scroll down to the end of this page. View the letter now >

By allowing your badge to be scanned at certain times during the event, such as at vendor displays, you are consenting to sharing your contact details with the specific Agile Alliance exhibitors who scan your badge. If you do not wish to be contacted by sponsors, do not allow your badge to be scanned.

If you have already registered as a group and would like to add one or more individuals, you can log back into your registration to do this.

To add another person to your group, please have the Primary Attendee (the person who made the registration) log back into their registration:

• Go to the Agile2024 – The European Experience registration page
• Select View or Change Your Existing Registration
• Provide the password you set when making the initial registration
• Once you are logged in, select Add Another Person
• You can then add additional attendees to your group. You are able use a different form of payment than the original group purchase.

Substitutions from the same organization are welcome with no additional fee, as long as the substitute qualifies for the same type of registration (member/regular). If the substitute attendee does not qualify for your rate, an additional fee may be required. If a substitution is necessary, please contact us.

Agile Alliance is not able to offer Letters of Invitation to attendees. It is solely at your discretion to obtain the necessary paperwork for your visa.

Past attendees have found that providing proof of registration and hotel confirmations have been sufficient documentation to acquire the necessary visa.

Agile Alliance is not able to assist with your visa process.

Agile Alliance is not a registered education provider (REP) with PMI. However, since Agile2024 – The European Experience is a conference supporting Agile education, you should be able to apply the hours you spend at Agile2024 – The European Experience toward PDUs. Submitting your registration confirmation should be sufficient documentation to have the hours accepted.

Visit Project Management Institute (PMI) to learn more

Please note: The decision to accept these hours is made by PMI, the certifying body. As Agile Alliance is not a registered education provider for the organization, we cannot guarantee PMI will accept the conference and award your PDUs.

Yes! Each hour of your continuing education — the time you spend reading articles, volunteering, attending Agile Alliance events, 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.

3. Look left! Click “Manage SEUs” under the calculator icon.

Since 2001, Agile Alliance has been informing and inspiring people and organizations as they explore, apply, and expand the values, principles, and practices outlined in the Agile Manifesto. Our ambition is to create spaces for people and organizations seeking to humanly, effectively, and sustainably discover and deliver outcomes that matter.

Agile Alliance’s priority for all meetings and events is the safety and welfare of our members, attendees, exhibitors, partners, and team. Effective March 15, 2023, all Agile Alliance events in the United States will follow the guidelines issued by the Centers for Disease Control (CDC) and/or those issued by state and local authorities. Those events held outside of the United States will follow guidelines established by the appropriate governing body.

Masking is strongly encouraged, but not required. Agile Alliance encourages all attendees to respect each individual’s choice regarding mask preference.

Agile Alliance’s Covid19 policy is designed to create an exceptional, safe experience for attendees and participants at our conferences and events. We will continue to monitor the COVID-19 pandemic, as well as local, state, and federal regulations, and will revise our policies as appropriate should conditions change. Thank you for your understanding and cooperation. We are all in this together.

If you have any COVID-19 symptoms within the 7 days prior to the beginning of the conference or event, please DO NOT ATTEND. We will give you a full refund (regardless of our standard fee policies) with proof of a positive COVID-19 test. If you start feeling sick during the conference or event, we ask that you see the on-site nurse, which is provided at the conference at no charge to attendees, and quarantine in your room.
