Actineo provides a premium experience, more than just a training course.

With Actineo, you get more than just a training course. You get to work with world-class trainers who will help you explore the key learning outcomes and prepare you to apply them to your context. You will get tools and know-how to help you apply what you have learnt effectively and with confidence. Further, the course doesn’t finish at the end of the class. You will have access to ongoing support & advice from the team at Actineo and you will be welcomed to join an active Alumni community of practitioners that provides a great forum for questions and discussion.

We teach our courses in small groups to ensure every participant actively contributes, discusses their challenges and shares their stories. We deliver the class learning outcomes, but no class is the same.

If you want a snapshot of what it feels like to attend one of our courses and get a better understanding of why we believe your next course should be with Actineo, then don’t just take our word for it, this journal of a personal experience by one of our students is a must read.

Professional Scrum with Kanban (PSK) is designed to help Scrum Teams continue improving and strengthening their work without compromising the use of Scrum. Combining the power of Kanban and its Flow Metrics with Scrum can help Scrum teams achieve improved levels of self-organisation, quality of work and predictability.

The Live Virtual Professional Scrum with Kanban (vPSK) teaches Scrum practitioners how to apply Kanban practices to their work. Through theory, case studies, and hands-on exercises, participants will understand the importance of transparency and flow as it pertains to the Scrum framework.

This vPSK course has been specially designed by Actineo for an online environment. Made up of 4 sessions of virtual training spread over 5 days. Each session includes 3 hours of training plus up to 90 minutes of offline work. This delivery format is optimised to maximise learning, engagement and collaboration. We do this by incorporating advanced classroom techniques such as “Training From the BACK of the Room!”. (Read about how we have redesigned our courses to be optimised for a live virtual learning environment.)
