I don't know about O'Reilly but I have a course on Coursera called: Introduction to Agile Development and Scrum that results in a certificate of completion. It is designed for everyone in a company to take because it is important that management understand what it means to become agile as well as the teams. I share my experience of 10 years of working on agile teams implementing scrum and I try to add stories about what has worked well and not so well for me along the way. It is not scrum master training or anything like that. It is a practical guide to becoming agile and implementing scrum for everyone.

Sorry for the shameless plug but when you said, "I want to recommend this course to my company", this is the reason I created the course; to bring everyone including management on board with the cultural change that is required to become and agile organization. If you don't have support from above, your efforts to become agile will fail.

BTW, this course is about to be part of a larger professional certification in DevOps if you are interested in that. Full disclosure, I teach a graduate course on DevOps and Agile Methodologies at New York University in addition to working in the computer industry for 37 years. I just thought you might want to take a look. :-)
