Communities of Practice (CoPs) are organized groups of people with a common interest in a specific technical or business domain.
They regularly collaborate to share information, improve their skills, and actively work on advancing their knowledge of the domain.
Our purpose is to build a culture on professional networking, personal relationships, shared knowledge, and common skills on a specific topic. Here we're talking about Agility!
And you can always request specific "trainings" by proposing in our google space.
