Great Course with a humble and great Trainer
Alex is a great trainer! He applied a very interactive and informative structure to both days. Also learning from the different stories Alex could tell from his daily business was invaluable. Looking forward to more courses with Alex.

Dear Alex, dear Scrum.org-Team,
thanks for the great virtual experience. I have learned a lot.
I have an aspect that I would like to share with you. Maybe it is helpful:
The new Scrum Guide contains many new or changed terms and concepts. One thing that would help any student in this exciting transition would be more explicit references and end notes to these changes under blog posts, in the course, and other online materials that are not updated so far. Also reading the recommended books (I read Professional Product Owner) has challenges, too.
Some minor issues: I found some dead links on blog posts:

https : // burozeven.nl/ 2017/11/15/70-tips-for-product-owners-part-3-business-value/
(I put some space in the links that they are not clickable)
Warmest greetings!

PSM I training
Alex is a very knowledgeable trainer and the course was very engaging, with lots of exercises and topics that really made me ask myself what would I do in that situation. I have really enjoyed the training and it gave me a new perspective on things and how they should be properly done. Thank you!

Great training
Very knowledgeable trainer, diverse support materials which vary from paper to video (in an online setting) and very well facilitated. I would add a space, in each day, for open discussion on real life, participant driven experiences and questions. Great work!

I completed Applying Professional Scrum…
I completed Applying Professional Scrum with Alex Brown in a virtual training. Alex is an enthusiastic and knowledgeable trainer.
2 intense and challenging days having only theoretical knowledge of Scrum and had to immediately participate in a sprint. It was awesome! I enjoyed this way of training as you learn quickly.
I highly recommend the training and it would have been excellent if it was face to face (which was not possible due to the COVID-19 situation).

Great Course
This was one of the most interesting and applicable courses I have attended. The course was highly interactive and encouraged us to answer difficult questions without being spoon-fed answers. Alex delivered the course brilliantly and made the most of the online environment where it can be difficult to keep people engaged for a full day.

I found the class structured and well delivered
I found the class was very well structured. Alex used some great tools to help go through the material in a collaborative manner. Thats difficult to do in the new lockdown world, but was an effective way to cover the material.

One of the best online courses I have ever taken
One of the best online courses I have ever taken. Alex is an excellent facilitator and teacher allowing time for interaction and discussion whilst bringing course material to life with actual experiences and examples. Many thanks, it was a real positive experience, I learned a lot from yourself and from my fellow class mates.

Very insightful course greatly delivered by Alex Brown
The course content was very insightful and Alex made it very practical with plenty of real life examples. Discussions and experience sharing with other participants was also a big take away as everyone was very passionate expressing their own challenges. That was my second course with Alex and I strongly recommend him as a trainer!

A great course, highly recommend
A great course, professionally prepared, hands-on, very engaging and full of real life examples.
Alex is a wonderful trainer and every minute of the course was full of practical knowledge which I can implement in my daily work. Not only was Scrum presented in a lot of detail, but also many complementary DevOps practices which make agile collaboration and continuous delivery so much easier. Topics of code design/architecture and quality were also mentioned in a lot of detail.
During the course we worked on an example project and had a few full very short sprints to get a feel of how Scrum can be applied in practice.
Highly recommend this course both to people who are new to Scrum as well as developers experienced in agile practices who want to clear some things up for themselves.

The course was good
The course was good, the facilitator was very considerate, it was a good overview. It will be helpful to break it down in four days instead of two to ensure better learning process. All the best.

Really insightful course (from principles to practices)
The course was great!
- It changed my perspective on Kanban
- I've added several practices to my toolbox
- I'm energized and can't wait to put that stuff in practice
A good balance between theory and practice.

Great course for managers who would like to work with agile teams
How to lead agile team is difficult enough, be sure you have a basic understading of agile / scrum teams before you start this course:-)

Excellent PSF Course
I really enjoyed the course and it has inspired me to investigate more about Agile principles, especially Scrum. Alex did a great job of making us all feel at ease regardless of whether we had any Scrum experience or not. The class was really interactive and would recommend to anyone interested in Scrum to take part in. Debating which one to do next!

The PSM course
The PSM course, held online due to COVID-19, was really well organized. Alex was great! He offered very interesting case studies and excercises, and diligently answered all our numerous questions. We were a group of 8, which made it ideal to keep us all engaged and give us the chance to share our experiences and exchange ideas.

Great learning experience
The class was great. Very well organized, and the instructor used various tools and media to make this virtual session as lively as possible.
The pace was a bit fast for a "beginners class", but feedback was warmly welcomed.

Great course
Great course. Went into enough detail but still concise. Plenty of opportunity for getting a bit off topic and discussing implementation and issues within our own teams.
