Great PSMII training
I really liked the class PSMII with Scrum Facilitators. Jasper and Chee-Hong did a great job facilitating the training online. A lot was discussed in breakout rooms, where we were able to discuss all kinds of agile topics. Because of the training, I really understood the essence of a professional scrumaster, so the exam was'nt too hard for me in the end!

A fantastic PSPO 2 day course!
I really enjoyed the 2-day course and found it a really beneficial couple of days.
Steve and Ziryan were fantastic trainers, providing a wealth of experience and knowledge.
I was concerned before the course, it would be just an extended session looking at how to pass the certification and was pleasantly surprised with how to course was interactive and gave actual tools and techniques to use in the future.
I loved the multi-culture feel of the group and spending time with people situated in different countries, making some new connections and friends for the future.

A fantastic course
A fantastic course, interactive and fun. I particularly loved having a mix of Dutch and British attendees led by Scrum Facilitators and Steve Trapps. The course was good value for money and the use of Mural and Zoom with remote rooms in addition to the format and planning was excellent. Great bunch of people too.

Leerzaam en nuttig!
Na 3 maanden gewerkt te hebben in een development team, zonder scrumkennis nu de scrummaster training gevolgd. Veel viel op zijn plek, het kwartje viel. Nog steeds veel te leren maar dankzij jullie ben ik heel wat stappen verder. Zin om meer te leren en te beginnen als scrummaster. Veel liever was ik fysiek in een trainingsruimte geweest, dat praat toch wat makkelijker maar in deze tijden kan het niet anders dan online. Knap hoe jullie een online training hebben gegeven!

A training without PowerPoint
A training without PowerPoint, I had never experienced that before. The energy with which Jasper and Chee-Hong move in the group ensures that the essence becomes and remains clear. Although I thought I had trouble with interactive training, this one made me realize that it is the best way to learn.

2 days of great interactive learning
2 days of great, interactive learning. Especially the alternation of exercises, video's presentation and Q&A made it a valuable experience. The facilitators are able to bring theory and relevant experience to the table and don't have a fixed mindset: good argumentation can change the answer within the tolerance of the scrum framework.

First virtual PSM II class... WELL DONE :-)
First time a PSM II clas in a virtual way. The Scrum Facilitators did a good job in facilitating this training to us all. Using the correct tooling, well prepared, and nice to see how they worked together during the training. I would say, a good alternative to the co located version where you have the true face to face conversations! Thanks !

Insightful 2 days with top of the bill trainers!
PSM2 training focuses on practical experience and the translation of it to theory. So on one hand you want to have an energetic, serious, knowledgeable and diverse group of participants to learn with/from. On the other hand you need trainers who possess all the above as well, to guide you through the program.
Lucky me I had both. The training was very well structured and with their enthusiasm Hong and Jasper flew us through the whole program. I say flew because time flew by.
The training made me realise even more that the role of Scrum Master is full of ambiguity and therefore to a large extent viable for own interpretation. Talking experiences with 12 other participants made me more confident about how to handle all this.

Fun but long
It was a nice break in the usual work week. There was a lot of repeating everything we learned so that was really helpful. We also had parts where we experienced working in scrum teams and that was very cool to do. I did think that the course could have been a bit shorter, I had the feeling that some things took too much time in my opinion. The message had come across but then we kept discussing about it. But maybe I'm the only one with that opinion because the other course members seemed to value those discussions.

If Scrum were to be reduced to one purpose and one only, it would be the creation of a "Done" increment. Although the DoD serves as a crucial part of Scrum, it is also often neglected by many Scrum teams. Try out the DoD EvoCycle, a simple technique to effectively manage your Definition of Done.

Scrum is simple to understand. The Scrum Guide is just 19 pages. Over the years, I've met many Scrum practitioners who have never read the Scrum Guide or they have read it once and once only. I believe there's something special about the Scrum Guide and because of this, it's important that we consider reading the Scrum Guide as an empirical process itself.
