Course Experience

In this two day class students are challenged to explore the Agile and Scrum principles so they can better  understand what to do when applying Scrum to support their teams and organizations. 

The course, developed by Scrum.org, uses a combination of instructor-led and activity-based learning where  students work together in teams. Professional Scrum Trainers (PSTs) bring their own Scrum Master experiences and stories to the class and use their skills as professional trainers to deliver the material using their own  unique delivery style. The result is an engaging, enjoyable learning experience where students gain a deep  understanding of Scrum theory and principles, the Scrum Master accountabilities and why each element of  the Scrum framework is important. 

Students leave this course with an appreciation for Professional Scrum, the agile mindset, and how to deal  with common myths and impediments to agility. They gain the knowledge and understanding about how to  choose and apply the appropriate practices and techniques that will be most beneficial for their Scrum Teams.
