I actually agree that the Agile Manifesto is a good read. That's why I tend to use air quotes when discussing "Agile" at any shop, because I think it rarely resembles anything in the Manifesto. But I'm not sure one can sell certification courses as easily based on the elegant-yet-simple principles outlined in the Manifesto.

There's being "agile" as in flexible and outlined in the Agile Manifesto, and there's being "Agile" as in Scrum. I've found myself, and others, referring to the later verbally as "capital-A Agile" to distinguish the two.
