Applying Professional Scrum for Software Development

Columbus, March 27-29, 2018

Class Overview

Professional Scrum Developer (PSD) is an immersive 3-day course where students make up an entire Scrum Team that concurrently does requirements engineering, design, development, testing, integration and deployment within a single iteration. Agile engineering practices and supportive ALM tools are explored as ways to improve a team’s capabilities.

Students will work in self-organizing teams to turn requirements into high quality potentially shippable software using the Scrum framework and modern engineering practices.

Over the 3 days, students gain a real-world view of what it is like to build software with Scrum. Throughout the course, students collaborate as a team in a series of Sprints where they apply modern engineering practices and use the Scrum framework to cope with changes. There is a key focus on having students learn how to develop increments of potentially releasable functionality from a realistic Product Backlog.
