Applying Professional Scrum for Software Development

The Professional Scrum Developer (PSD) course is a 3-day course that teaches how to create great software using the Scrum framework. Working in a series of Sprints, teams of students collaborate, apply modern engineering practices, and use the Scrum framework to cope with changes. They learn how to develop increments of potentially releasable functionality from a realistic Product Backlog.

The course is based on .NET and using Visual Studio Team Services. The .NET version was developed in partnership with Microsoft® and is the official training solution for Microsoft Visual Studio.
