Frequently Asked Questions
What is Agile Team Facilitation (ICP-ATF)? +
Agile Team Facilitation is the art of guiding teams through agile ceremonies, collaborative workshops, and complex decision-making processes. It ensures meetings achieve shared outcomes without the facilitator dictating the content.
Do I need to be a Scrum Master to take ICP-ATF? +
No. While it is highly beneficial for Scrum Masters, the ICP-ATF is also perfect for Project Managers, Delivery Leads, Product Owners, and any professional responsible for running high-stakes meetings and workshops.
Is there an exam for the ICAgile ICP-ATF certification? +
There is no traditional multiple-choice exam. The ICP-ATF certification is earned through active participation in live simulations, peer-to-peer facilitation practice, and a final practical assessment evaluated by our expert instructors.
How does ICP-ATF differ from ICP-ACC (Agile Coaching)? +
ICP-ATF focuses specifically on the mechanics of facilitating meetings, resolving immediate team conflict, and guiding ceremonies. ICP-ACC (Agile Coaching) is a broader discipline focused on long-term team maturity, mentoring, and professional coaching.
What facilitation techniques are taught in the ICP-ATF course? +
You will learn to design meeting purpose and outcomes, utilize divergent and convergent thinking models, facilitate remote teams, and navigate difficult behaviors or dysfunctions during retrospectives and planning sessions.
Does the ICP-ATF certification expire? +
No. Your ICAgile Certified Professional in Agile Team Facilitation credential is valid for life and never requires renewal fees or subscription maintenance.
How does agile facilitation improve team performance? +
Poor meetings drain corporate resources. Effective facilitation ensures psychological safety, guarantees all voices are heard, rapidly drives consensus, and turns abstract discussions into concrete, actionable delivery plans.
Can I take the ICP-ATF and ICP-ACC concurrently? +
Yes, many professionals take them back-to-back. The ICP-ATF provides the tactical meeting skills, while the ICP-ACC provides the overarching coaching mindset. Together, they form the complete Agile Coaching track.

Absolutely. ICAgile is a premier global accreditation body. Holding the ICP-ATF signals to global employers that you possess advanced soft skills and the ability to lead high-performing teams.
What is the format of the ICP-ATF live online training? +
