Scott is one of the best instructor I had
Scott was a very dynamic instructor. He took the time to be sure we understood the concepts and materials and if a doubt still remains, he pivot the delivery of the knowledge with other examples.
One thing I can say is that his class was NOT boring. Lots of practical example and real life experiences were discussed, which helped with the understanding of the material. Overall an A+++++ experience.

Become a change agent
Scott's class was much more valuable than just exam preparation. The focus was on finding true successes for our organizations.
I passed the PSM 1 exam the day after the course and am excited to teach, facilitate, coach, and mentor scrum teams.

Scott was engaging and used stories/narratives to explain Scrum values, which I thought was effective for this content and in preparing for the certification.

Super awesome class, Amazing professors
Without exaggeration, Scott is one of my best professors on my road to learning project management ( Agile Methodology) and one of the best human beings I've had a chance to deal with in my lifetime... Thank God for that. In fact, I am his first student from Iran who was honored to attend the classes of one of the best teachers in scrum.org. I strongly recommend participating in Scott's extraordinary classes to all those who want to learn the concepts and concepts of the methodology of Agile in the simplest way possible and with pleasure.

Meets the Definition of Done and More
Meets the Definition of Done and More
Scott is a seasoned instructor that not only brings an understanding of the written aspects of the Scrum Guide, but uses real world examples and engaging practices to instill the spirit and philosophy of the Scrum Guide in students. I found his course very informative for the sake of testing, but also personally affirming. I do believe I got coached and instructed all at once, and that’s pretty dang awesome.
I especially appreciated the pitfall exercise. Experiencing that feeling of discomfort in a low risk setting will inform me for years to come.

Awesome Scrum Course
Scott was truly an engaging and fun teacher. I thoroughly enjoyed Scott's teaching style and the way everything was explained. I also really enjoyed the breakout exercises and actively implementing Scrum throughout the course. I believe my way of thinking really started to gravitate more towards Scrum as the course went on. Thank you Scott.

Scrum Master Issac Scott Adams
Scrum Master Scott by far is theeeeee best mentor, servant leader, I've come across. He has a true gift in teaching and explaining to student the course material that makes learning and understanding so much easier. He is extremely thorough and will go the extra mile to ensure that his students understand the material. Not only has he guided me to become PSM 1 certified, he has opened my eyes to a brand new career path. Thank you so much for this opportunity to meet such an amazing leader! I would not have been able to come this far without his guidance! thank you!

Down and Dirty Scrum Mastering
Scott was very animated and actively involved with the class. He understands the topic very well and was able to break down the subject matter in to relatable, real-world examples. He used tools and activities that made the class very interactive. This is not a course for the faint-at-heart, but neither is the subject matter. I entered this course with nearly no knowledge of what Scrum was or the role of a Scrum Master. Now I am confident after only two days that I have a good knowledge of my purpose in helping bring my teams back in to be more productive. I would highly recommend this course and certification to my colleagues and look forward to taking additional courses with Scott.

Grand Scrum Master (Scott Adams)
Grand Scrum Master (Scott Adams) is a Phenomenal Instructor! His Agile/Scrum knowledge mixed with his positive nature made the class very enjoyable. I loved the hands-on approach vs just listening to an instructor for 2 days. I appreciate his experience and ability to keep the class on time and focused. He covered a lot. Thank you for embodying the principles and showing us what a GREAT “Servant Leader” looks like!!! 😊

Easy like sunday morning!
This was a phenomable class! I took the APS class with scott and this class was just the cherry on top! He is very consistent with his energy and provides a lot of examples and makes sure you get it. He repeats himself for a greater purpose which you can learn about if you take this class with him! I can truly say that Scott Adams is a very intelligent man. He will give you what you need to take yourself to the next level but then it's up to you to apply yourself and get something out of the class.
Side note: He is considerate and train under scott you won't regret it!

Thank you Grand Master Scott!
This was my first experience to Scrum framework and with no IT experience. Grand Master Scott shared his knowledge covering all the basics and I was able to understand all the concepts. He allowed for sufficient balance between the class and interactions within the students. Grand Master Scott was very patient and addressed all our questions!
One of the best classes I ever attended!

Immersive Scrum Master Training Experience
I entered the PSM I course with some hands-on Agile experience from my current job and a mostly conceptual understanding of the Scrum Master role based on reading The Scrum Guide. During this 2-day course, I felt immersed in the material and gained a solid grasp on how Scrum works. By course end, I felt prepared to pass the PSM I exam and confidently embrace the Scrum Master role in the workplace.
This course is packed with collaborative group exercises, excellent visual graphics to help break down complex topics, and an interactive virtual environment led by a knowledgable, supportive, and engaging instructor. Scrum Master Scott Adams rocks! Well worth the time and financial investment.

The AMAZING Mr. Scott Adams
Mr. Scott Adams is one of the BEST instructors I have ever had! As someone who has been in education for almost 20 years, I entered the Professional Scrum Master class feeling intimidated and overwhelmed. However his ability to weave "real world" scenarios into the Scrum framework along with hilarious stories made the class enjoyable, engaging and the information easy to digest. I would highly recommend him as an instructor and plan on taking more classes that he teaches. He is very approachable and willing to assist! This has been the best decision I have made as I plan to pivot in my career!!!

I could not have asked for a better person to educate me on Scrum!! He’s very engaging, helpful, and easy to understand! He reminds me of Morpheus in the movie, “The Matrix.” I love how he also emphasizes ethics and empowering others through the Scrum cycles. Thanks for encouraging us to be our authentic selves! Highly recommend this dynamic scrum master instructor!

The absolute BEST!
It's safe to say that Scott is one of the best instructor's out there. He used elements of story-telling and hypothetical scenario's to guide our class in learning about Scrum. Most importantly, he shared with us how he uses scrum and agile methodology to enhance his daily goals & tasks. Thank you so much for teaching us Scott! I was able to pass after you added value to the learning experience.

Great Course!
I believe Scott Adams is one of the best instructors that I've ever had for learning any material. His high energy and enthusiasm, even passion, for his work is clear in his course demonstration. I took part in the beginning or entry-level course and it exceeded all of my expectations! I definitely recommend Scott Adams for this course on Scrum.org and am planning on taking his PSM I course (Professional Scrum Management). Thank you for your time and excellent experience! :)

Scrum - No Excuses Just RESULTS!!! DONE!!
The course was very informative. The instructor successfully made the entire course interesting by providing and relating the scrum framework to 'real' life scenarios. He provided details and examples that easily resulted in recognition and recall. This experience was so much more than a lesson or a course; it was more like the birth of a new way of working towards a complex goal but doing so by simply using intelligence, skills, team work and common sense. I highly recommend the PSM class as a result of my learning experience. It's going to be beneficial for my company's future projects and in my personal life. Scott Adams teaching technique was simply outstanding. He did a tremendous job explaining and making the "sweet 16" connect. Scrum truly came to LIFE!! He ensured it was a welcoming environment and everyone was given the opportunity to participate. Mr. Adams did an amazing job and I am extremely grateful!! #teamscrum.org

A Class worth coming too.
Grand Master Scott Adams is one of the best teachers I have had in my entire life. He is able to apply real world examples and figurative ones as well. This was all done is TWO DAYS!!! I have seen a entirely different side of myself and how hard I can actually work. I personally believe his class teaches you much more than just scrum. If you don't believe me then ask another student of his teachings. He is truly a evangelizer of the Scrum guide.

Scott's knowledge of Scrum, Agile and people is second to none. His teaching style is both direct and engaging. I highly recommend him as a Teacher, Coach and Mentor in your Scrum journey.
Scott took the time to answer each and every question posed to him in a thoughtful and respectful manner but still kept our discussions on track.
He truly embodies the 5 Principles of Scrum: Openness, Respect, Courage, Commitment and Focus.

The class size was perfect, and with people on all levels of scrum experience. The breakout room projects gave the opportunity to build and learn as a team in an actual scrum environment, which was extremely informative and valuable. Grand Scrum Master Scott gave all the material needed to not only pass the test, but the mind-frame to take with you to continue to be successful, and learn in this industry in real time. We were taught things that will continue to help us learn more and prosper in any Scrum/Agile environment. I would recommend this class with him 100%

This class is essential if you want to KNOW Agile and Scrum. Scott is a fantastic teacher. He presents the content in a practical way that allows you to retain and build on what you learn as the class progresses. He is energetic and has a vast amount of personal experience to share. This really helps you to grasp the real-world application of the concepts. He, also, offers outside references, books, etc. to expand your knowledge and is willing to take time to talk to you one on one. Through this class and Scott's tutoring, I passed my PSM exam on the first try with flying colors. I highly recommend the class and Scott Adams.

Scrum Mastery from a Scrum Master
Researching scrum provides a wealth of resources, but to truly understand scrum, it needs to be distilled by a scrum master. This class, and the teacher, excelled in this aspect. There were points in the learning where the prescribed exemplars by the teacher solidified the teaching.
Breakout sessions are always awkward for some, especially in a digital environment. The teacher and the class exercises helped to break that down in to learning and applicable exercises. In essence, the break out sessions helped focus on the teachings AND subconsciously apply the teachings.

Scott is amazing! Scott keeps you on the edge of your seat wanting to learn more. I went from zero knowledge about Scrum to an ample amount of knowledge on Scrum. Scott is very clear when explaining the in's & out's of Scrum. Scott ensures you understand Scrum. He is also very energetic, open, committed, and focused. Scott gives real-life scenarios to help provide a better understanding of how Scrum works. Overall the training was outstanding! Scott's training was just what I needed to gain the confidence and understanding of Scrum.

An Inspiring Coach
During the PSM certification class Scott told us that a scrum master inspires his team. With this understanding he used his techniques and well refined skill to inspire the class I took with him. I began this training without knowledge of any scrum concepts and by Scott's careful instruction I now have a full understanding of Scrum and confidence in the upcoming PSM exam. Scott was clear with instruction, always invited curiosity, he was energetic, and entertaining, and an overall joy to learn from. He gave helpful insight into real life scenarios and further understanding through examples provided from his lengthy experience and even advice of the doors that can be opened with a Scrum certification. Overall the training I've received has been phenomenal and beyond my expectations.

Grand Scrum Master Scott
I enjoyed attending Scrum Master Scott's classes. He provided great examples for understanding what Scrum is, how to use Scrum, and easy ways to remember mechanical and professional Scrum. I love the examples of carpenters building a deck and the Agile umbrella. The Sprint as a container was a bit more confusing. The way I remember the Sprint and Sprint events was thinking of them like a boxing show. The entire show is the sprint but each individual match would be an event. Also, working on making slides was a bit confusing the first few times. However, I personally should have asked for clarification before being sent off into a group to work on the slides. I would recommend using the Kahoot somewhere in the class because that is where I learned the most along with seeing the practice exams. Overall, the class was great a bit confusing at first like all new things but after the second-day things get a lot clearer, especially if you attend the study sessions for Kahoot.

I enjoyed learning how to apply Scrum in the workplace and get a better understanding of how it is used to create a positive work environment. Because of this course taken with Scrum Master Scott, I am leaning towards a scrum career in the future. I especially like that Scrum is a very visible method that allows consumers, stakeholders, and the team to see the constant progress or need for improvement of their product. I find that it is a very useful agile methodology, and I'm starting to notice it every time I get an update for my phone or my apps.

Take the class!
Scott was an excellent teacher. There was a boatload of information given about Scrum, and Scott's method of teaching us each section about Scrum made it easier to follow and grasp. He has his own way of remembering certain steps which was great because he came up with it originally. I also appreciated that he gave us different examples with real life situations, props, and to emphasize a lesson. I also enjoyed the projects he gave us to work in teams related to the course and give/receive feedback. Two days of this class with Scott I learned more than I thought I could, and not to mention that he gives you support, encouragement, and motivation throughout the class while teaching us. Highly recommend to take a class with Scott!

Highly Recommend
I had the pleasure of taking a class with Scrum Master Scott. I was impressed with how much information and value he was able to fit into a two-day lesson plan. The lesson was well-structured and involved a lot of class participation, group exercises and presentation - we were actually practicing the methods and values that we were learning, first hand. Scott is an expert Scrum Master and cares deeply that every person in the class is getting value out of each lesson. I'd recommend this class to anyone who is curious about learning Scrum.

The two-day training course with Scott was great! I loved the small class size and the laid-back, yet professional vibe. I learned so much in such a short amount of time, and really appreciated Scott's constant revisitation of and reminder to always go back to the scrum values. I highly recommend taking this training with Scott! You won't regret it!

Scott is one of the best instructor I had
Scott was a very dynamic instructor. He took the time to be sure we understood the concepts and materials and if a doubt still remains, he pivot the delivery of the knowledge with other examples.
One thing I can say is that his class was NOT boring. Lots of practical example and real life experiences were discussed, which helped with the understanding of the material. Overall an A+++++ experience.

Scott's class was much more valuable than just exam preparation. The focus was on finding true successes for our organizations.
I passed the PSM 1 exam the day after the course and am excited to teach, facilitate, coach, and mentor scrum teams.

Super awesome class, Amazing professors
Without exaggeration, Scott is one of my best professors on my road to learning project management ( Agile Methodology) and one of the best human beings I've had a chance to deal with in my lifetime... Thank God for that. In fact, I am his first student from Iran who was honored to attend the classes of one of the best teachers in scrum.org. I strongly recommend participating in Scott's extraordinary classes to all those who want to learn the concepts and concepts of the methodology of Agile in the simplest way possible and with pleasure.

Meets the Definition of Done and More
Scott is a seasoned instructor that not only brings an understanding of the written aspects of the Scrum Guide, but uses real world examples and engaging practices to instill the spirit and philosophy of the Scrum Guide in students. I found his course very informative for the sake of testing, but also personally affirming. I do believe I got coached and instructed all at once, and that’s pretty dang awesome.
I especially appreciated the pitfall exercise. Experiencing that feeling of discomfort in a low risk setting will inform me for years to come.

Awesome Scrum Course
Scott was truly an engaging and fun teacher. I thoroughly enjoyed Scott's teaching style and the way everything was explained. I also really enjoyed the breakout exercises and actively implementing Scrum throughout the course. I believe my way of thinking really started to gravitate more towards Scrum as the course went on. Thank you Scott.

Scrum Master Issac Scott Adams
Scrum Master Scott by far is theeeeee best mentor, servant leader, I've come across. He has a true gift in teaching and explaining to student the course material that makes learning and understanding so much easier. He is extremely thorough and will go the extra mile to ensure that his students understand the material. Not only has he guided me to become PSM 1 certified, he has opened my eyes to a brand new career path. Thank you so much for this opportunity to meet such an amazing leader! I would not have been able to come this far without his guidance! thank you!

Down and Dirty Scrum Mastering
Scott was very animated and actively involved with the class. He understands the topic very well and was able to break down the subject matter in to relatable, real-world examples. He used tools and activities that made the class very interactive. This is not a course for the faint-at-heart, but neither is the subject matter. I entered this course with nearly no knowledge of what Scrum was or the role of a Scrum Master. Now I am confident after only two days that I have a good knowledge of my purpose in helping bring my teams back in to be more productive. I would highly recommend this course and certification to my colleagues and look forward to taking additional courses with Scott.

Grand Scrum Master (Scott Adams)
Grand Scrum Master (Scott Adams) is a Phenomenal Instructor! His Agile/Scrum knowledge mixed with his positive nature made the class very enjoyable. I loved the hands-on approach vs just listening to an instructor for 2 days. I appreciate his experience and ability to keep the class on time and focused. He covered a lot. Thank you for embodying the principles and showing us what a GREAT “Servant Leader” looks like!!! 😊

Easy like sunday morning!
This was a phenomable class! I took the APS class with scott and this class was just the cherry on top! He is very consistent with his energy and provides a lot of examples and makes sure you get it. He repeats himself for a greater purpose which you can learn about if you take this class with him! I can truly say that Scott Adams is a very intelligent man. He will give you what you need to take yourself to the next level but then it's up to you to apply yourself and get something out of the class.
Side note: He is considerate and train under scott you won't regret it!

This was my first experience to Scrum framework and with no IT experience. Grand Master Scott shared his knowledge covering all the basics and I was able to understand all the concepts. He allowed for sufficient balance between the class and interactions within the students. Grand Master Scott was very patient and addressed all our questions!
One of the best classes I ever attended!

Immersive Scrum Master Training Experience
I entered the PSM I course with some hands-on Agile experience from my current job and a mostly conceptual understanding of the Scrum Master role based on reading The Scrum Guide. During this 2-day course, I felt immersed in the material and gained a solid grasp on how Scrum works. By course end, I felt prepared to pass the PSM I exam and confidently embrace the Scrum Master role in the workplace.
This course is packed with collaborative group exercises, excellent visual graphics to help break down complex topics, and an interactive virtual environment led by a knowledgable, supportive, and engaging instructor. Scrum Master Scott Adams rocks! Well worth the time and financial investment.

The AMAZING Mr. Scott Adams
Mr. Scott Adams is one of the BEST instructors I have ever had! As someone who has been in education for almost 20 years, I entered the Professional Scrum Master class feeling intimidated and overwhelmed. However his ability to weave "real world" scenarios into the Scrum framework along with hilarious stories made the class enjoyable, engaging and the information easy to digest. I would highly recommend him as an instructor and plan on taking more classes that he teaches. He is very approachable and willing to assist! This has been the best decision I have made as I plan to pivot in my career!!!

I could not have asked for a better person to educate me on Scrum!! He’s very engaging, helpful, and easy to understand!

Highly recommend this dynamic scrum master instructor!

It's safe to say that Scott is one of the best instructor's out there. He used elements of story-telling and hypothetical scenario's to guide our class in learning about Scrum. Most importantly, he shared with us how he uses scrum and agile methodology to enhance his daily goals & tasks. Thank you so much for teaching us Scott! I was able to pass after you added value to the learning experience.

I believe Scott Adams is one of the best instructors that I've ever had for learning any material. His high energy and enthusiasm, even passion, for his work is clear in his course demonstration.

I definitely recommend Scott Adams for this course on Scrum.org and am planning on taking his PSM I course (Professional Scrum Management). Thank you for your time and excellent experience! :)

Scrum - No Excuses Just RESULTS!!! DONE!!
The course was very informative. The instructor successfully made the entire course interesting by providing and relating the scrum framework to 'real' life scenarios. He provided details and examples that easily resulted in recognition and recall. This experience was so much more than a lesson or a course; it was more like the birth of a new way of working towards a complex goal but doing so by simply using intelligence, skills, team work and common sense. I highly recommend the PSM class as a result of my learning experience. It's going to be beneficial for my company's future projects and in my personal life. Scott Adams teaching technique was simply outstanding. He did a tremendous job explaining and making the "sweet 16" connect. Scrum truly came to LIFE!! He ensured it was a welcoming environment and everyone was given the opportunity to participate. Mr. Adams did an amazing job and I am extremely grateful!! #teamscrum.org

A Class worth coming too.
Grand Master Scott Adams is one of the best teachers I have had in my entire life. He is able to apply real world examples and figurative ones as well. This was all done is TWO DAYS!!! I have seen a entirely different side of myself and how hard I can actually work. I personally believe his class teaches you much more than just scrum. If you don't believe me then ask another student of his teachings. He is truly a evangelizer of the Scrum guide.

Grand Scrum Master Scott gave all the material needed to not only pass the test, but the mind-frame to take with you to continue to be successful, and learn in this industry in real time.

This class is essential if you want to KNOW Agile and Scrum. Scott is a fantastic teacher. He presents the content in a practical way that allows you to retain and build on what you learn as the class progresses. He is energetic and has a vast amount of personal experience to share. This really helps you to grasp the real-world application of the concepts. He, also, offers outside references, books, etc. to expand your knowledge and is willing to take time to talk to you one on one. Through this class and Scott's tutoring, I passed my PSM exam on the first try with flying colors. I highly recommend the class and Scott Adams.

Scrum Mastery from a Scrum Master
Researching scrum provides a wealth of resources, but to truly understand scrum, it needs to be distilled by a scrum master. This class, and the teacher, excelled in this aspect. There were points in the learning where the prescribed exemplars by the teacher solidified the teaching.
Breakout sessions are always awkward for some, especially in a digital environment. The teacher and the class exercises helped to break that down in to learning and applicable exercises. In essence, the break out sessions helped focus on the teachings AND subconsciously apply the teachings.

Scott is amazing! Scott keeps you on the edge of your seat wanting to learn more. I went from zero knowledge about Scrum to an ample amount of knowledge on Scrum. Scott is very clear when explaining the in's & out's of Scrum. Scott ensures you understand Scrum. He is also very energetic, open, committed, and focused. Scott gives real-life scenarios to help provide a better understanding of how Scrum works. Overall the training was outstanding! Scott's training was just what I needed to gain the confidence and understanding of Scrum.

An Inspiring Coach
During the PSM certification class Scott told us that a scrum master inspires his team. With this understanding he used his techniques and well refined skill to inspire the class I took with him. I began this training without knowledge of any scrum concepts and by Scott's careful instruction I now have a full understanding of Scrum and confidence in the upcoming PSM exam. Scott was clear with instruction, always invited curiosity, he was energetic, and entertaining, and an overall joy to learn from. He gave helpful insight into real life scenarios and further understanding through examples provided from his lengthy experience and even advice of the doors that can be opened with a Scrum certification. Overall the training I've received has been phenomenal and beyond my expectations.

Grand Scrum Master Scott
I enjoyed attending Scrum Master Scott's classes. He provided great examples for understanding what Scrum is, how to use Scrum, and easy ways to remember mechanical and professional Scrum. I love the examples of carpenters building a deck and the Agile umbrella. The Sprint as a container was a bit more confusing. The way I remember the Sprint and Sprint events was thinking of them like a boxing show. The entire show is the sprint but each individual match would be an event. Also, working on making slides was a bit confusing the first few times. However, I personally should have asked for clarification before being sent off into a group to work on the slides. I would recommend using the Kahoot somewhere in the class because that is where I learned the most along with seeing the practice exams. Overall, the class was great a bit confusing at first like all new things but after the second-day things get a lot clearer, especially if you attend the study sessions for Kahoot.

Scott, the best teacher.
Scott brought amazing energy to the class. He made the class interesting and made me want to learn scrum. It did not feel like a lecture which made it more fun/interesting to learn. What I liked most about Scott is that he wants everyone to do well and takes his own time to help others outside of class.

I enjoyed learning how to apply Scrum…
I enjoyed learning how to apply Scrum in the workplace and get a better understanding of how it is used to create a positive work environment. Because of this course taken with Scrum Master Scott, I am leaning towards a scrum career in the future. I especially like that Scrum is a very visible method that allows consumers, stakeholders, and the team to see the constant progress or need for improvement of their product. I find that it is a very useful agile methodology, and I'm starting to notice it every time I get an update for my phone or my apps.

Take the class!
Scott was an excellent teacher. There was a boatload of information given about Scrum, and Scott's method of teaching us each section about Scrum made it easier to follow and grasp. He has his own way of remembering certain steps which was great because he came up with it originally. I also appreciated that he gave us different examples with real life situations, props, and to emphasize a lesson. I also enjoyed the projects he gave us to work in teams related to the course and give/receive feedback. Two days of this class with Scott I learned more than I thought I could, and not to mention that he gives you support, encouragement, and motivation throughout the class while teaching us. Highly recommend to take a class with Scott!

Highly Recommend
I had the pleasure of taking a class with Scrum Master Scott. I was impressed with how much information and value he was able to fit into a two-day lesson plan. The lesson was well-structured and involved a lot of class participation, group exercises and presentation - we were actually practicing the methods and values that we were learning, first hand. Scott is an expert Scrum Master and cares deeply that every person in the class is getting value out of each lesson. I'd recommend this class to anyone who is curious about learning Scrum.

The two-day training course with Scott…
The two-day training course with Scott was great! I loved the small class size and the laid-back, yet professional vibe. I learned so much in such a short amount of time, and really appreciated Scott's constant revisitation of and reminder to always go back to the scrum values. I highly recommend taking this training with Scott! You won't regret it!
