PSM II training very recommended
Thank you for the amazing training of PSM II.
Daria is clear with her ideas and facilitation techniques. Also, I felt very prepared for the certification because of the valuable insights she exposed to the group.
The whole training is very hands-on, which is different from formal presentations and workshops. 3 days of intense activities which pushed me further in the career path.
Thank you, Daria, and all the best on your way.

Strive to be better leaders that serves!
I attended PSM II course recently and really enjoyed those three days. This is a really well organized training, engaging, where we can deep-dive into our practice as Scrum Masters and share a lot of experiences with our peers. Daria our instructor gave us a lot of beneficial insights, she is very experiences and has really good communication and facilitation skills. She is asking the good questions to make us reflect on how we are handling difficult situations and how we can strive to be better leaders that serves!
I took this class online unlike the PSM I due to COVID and even though done through Zoom, we had really good interactions and exercices in breakout rooms and using Miro and I did not feel this was less effective than being in a room with all participants.
I came out of the course with some learnings I can apply in my day to day at work. I would have like to get more coaching tips out of it but this will probably be another certification I will take in a near future.
Overall, I really recommend both the class and the instructor Daria Bagina, if you want to improve your techniques, learn how to support better the whole organization, your Product Owner, your dev team in how to implement Scrum and get more understanding about your role while sharing some learning and experiences with others, this course is for you.

Great instructor
Great instructor! Daria knows her stuff :) Would have liked to see even more real world example of how to act as a scrum master and since I already learned by myself the basics of scrum prior to the formation, I would have appreciated to go a bit more in depth during those 2 days. The interactions using Miro and the breakout rooms were a nice way to interact while in global pandemic situation. Overall interesting course that gives a great Scrum overview and insight into the role of a scrum master

Thank you Daria!
I don't quite know how Pyxis Canada does it, they always have great trainers, who have a ton of experience in their respective field, and have a passion for transmitting their precious know-how. And that's exactly how I would describe Daria : experienced, passionate and an excellent trainer.
Thank you for the course, I just nailed the certification on top of it :)
Cheers,

Very happy with the training I have received. Training was time-boxed properly and the trainer had a very good knowledge of Scrum, had an ease teaching it and was well prepared.
The visual support and interactive exercises were compelling (something that is hard to do remotely so, well done).

A solid 5 stars
The PSM II course was excellent. It was a 3-day course filled with group exercises that teach us how to effectively apply Scrum within a team and within an organization. It goes beyond the basics of what is in the Scrum guide by focusing on the Scrum values, the Scrum Master as a servant leader to the team, to the product owner and to the organization, the Scrum Master stances, etc. What I liked the most about the group exercises was sharing our experiences with Scrum, the challenges we face and how we overcome those challenges.

This class was simply amazing! My instructor, Daria Bagina, really mastered the material and most importantly, her experience in the industry allowed her to provide excellent answers to any "real-life" questions.
Due to COVID, I took the class online. The material was clearly presented, the interactions, even though done through Zoom, were very good (the instructor used Miro, an online whiteboard, very effectively and it was easy for everyone to use it as well)
On the overall, I strongly recommend both the class and the instructor.

Excellent course delivered virtually
The PSM II course delivered by Daria was fabulous! The class consisted of students across multiple time zones and around the globe including Canada, UK, and China.
Other than a few technical hiccups over the course of 3-days, learning virtually was a great experience as it allowed collaboration from individuals experiences that you would not have gotten in a physical classroom. I love learning virtually; so many more doors open with this delivery.
Kudos to Daria who was professional, knowledgeable and thought provoking.
Highly recommend virtual training and of course Daria!

Much deeper understanding of Scrum
I gained a much deeper understanding of Scrum from this class and some critical insights on how to apply it in real life. I especially appreciated the way Daria asks "why" - why is that the right / wrong answer. Even though participants were scattered across multiple time zones with the usual frustrations of dropped connections and unreliable audio, Daria remained totally calm and professional throughout and taught a remote class that I'd certainly choose again over some in-person classes I've attended.

Daria's Bio
My focus is to help teams and organizations to create better working environments. The kind of workplaces where self-organizing self-motivated teams build awesome products.
I have a wide-angle view on the common challenges thanks to my diverse experience. My journey led me from Russia to France and now to Canada. Along the way, I worked with organizations in a variety of industries such as fintech, network security, cloud engineering, video game production and more.
Not only that, but I also had a chance to work with top leaders in huge corporations with more than 60k employees, medium-sized companies of 500 employees as well as start-ups of 15 people.
One of my strengths is my creativity. Thanks to the creative approach teams I work with discover new ways to look at old problems and find new solutions. I adapt my teachings and practices to each situation I encounter to increase engagement and empower people to make decisions.
My passion lies in mentoring Scrum Masters by providing them with the knowledge and skills they need to succeed. As a practicing Scrum Master myself, I know what the role entails on a daily basis. As a Professional Scrum Trainer I can help bridge the knowledge gap through high-quality Scrum training materials. But I don’t stop there.
To foster higher collaboration in the community, provide practical tools and inspire others I founded ScrumMastered. This is where I share even more knowledge and skills that can help Scrum Masters grow in their role the same as I did throughout the years.
