Training course with Jean Pierre
The 2-day training course with Jean Pierre and our small group was fortunately able to take place on site. JP did a wonderful job. He was able to clarify the Scrum topics with lots of different information/ stories and practical examples. We were able to practice our knowledge through case studies and he patiently answered our numerous questions. This course was a very good preparation for the exam. Absolutely recommendable.

Delightful and smooth ;)
It's been a long time since my last class (PSM I in 2014) and much knowledge was gone or outdated. So it was great to freshen up what was left and get to know what has changed ever since.
And thanks to my coach and my fellow attendees the class was delightful and smooth!
Mar 22, 2023
Excellent trainers
The trainers were highly engaging. They rather wanted us to really understand the Product Owner role (and how to possibly apply it in our individual contexts) than beating only certification relevant information into us.
Holger and JP did an awesome job!

Jean-Pierre is a very good trainer who brings just the right amount of enthusiasm, fun and sincerety which is only boosted by his formidable co-teacher Götz. I learned a lot in this class even though I already knew the Scrum Guide very well. Many personal experiences were shared and insights into real world situations was given. I highly enjoyed and benefitted from this class.

PSPO review
The two days of PO certification were really great and I took away many valuable ideas. The two trainers Jean Pierre Berchez and Götz have really convinced both personally and professionally. The training was very interactive. This means that the theory was partly developed through group work, but also directly applied. Very interesting and exciting were the discussions and the exchange of personal experiences that arose in the groups.
Since the practical experience of other participants was really interesting, my suggestion for improvement would be to schedule a little more time for exchange and possibly discuss situations that the participants experienced with themselves in the projects.

What it takes to be a Scrum Product Owner
Excellent training about the Scrum framework and especially the role of the Product Owner with lots of practical experiences discussed with our trainers and class members. A productive learning environment was established to reflect on the implications of living Scrum.

Absolutely excellent training workshop
It was an absolute pleasure to be part in this training! Jean-Pierre and Götz always brought up relevant examples from real life Scrum and connected them with the theorectical definitions of the Scrum guide. The additional pratices with the other workshop members made a lot of fun and everybody was motivated to do their best. Looking forward to the next workshop with you guys!
Nov 1, 2021
100% recommendation
The course was very well designed and structured. At every point there was the opportunity to ask questions, which were promptly answered in an appropriate manner and related to everyday work.
All relevant topics could finally be worked out by oneself through many accompanying workshops.
100% recommendation for this course on my part.

The training was great! We had fun and learned many things and now have a way more sharper eye on the logic behind SCRUM.
The only thing that I would improve is to have more time for the discussions of the participants and their situations and challenges

The course was very interactive and I gained a lot of insights from the daily challenges the other participants face. Moreover, the use of Liberating Structures as well as quotes of Jeff provided plenty of interactively generated learnings.
Jul 14, 2021
First of all
First of all, yes. Live class with real people, not online. Great.
Second, yes. JP and Götz did a great job, and I took a lot of input. Thanks to everybody in the class.
Jun 25, 2021
Great Training
Very constructive and informative training in casual atmosphere. Focus on stances and approaches instead of generic solutions. Much group interaction and less presentation. Many Liberating Structures and great "self-made structures" too. Free follow-up meeting two weeks after the training.
Jun 21, 2021
Good Choice to wait til on-site was possible after lockdown
Nice small group with different status of scrum implementation. Jean-Pierre and Götz configured the two days competent, varied and amusing, bringing in their rich experience using the scrum framework in different sectors.

PSM II Course with Jean Pierre and Marco
We had the PSM II Course with Jean Pierre and Marco. I really liked it and learned a lot and took many inputs with me to discuss and adopt with the teams.
Apr 6, 2021
Excellent course
In a three-day course (3x ca. 5 h), we learned about the basic concepts of Scrum, its values and real-life aspects in a really good mix of theoretical explications and pratical exercises, on which we worked in Scrum teams of ca. 5 people. The course was online due to the Corona pandemic, but the relaisation via zoom worked well for the course and in regard to all technical aspects.

3 days of learning, laughter and helpful real-life examples
Jean Pierre and Alisa did a wonderful job. The three day course on PSPO 1 was enjoyable, helpful and overall very well organized – which is even more important considering it was a remote class. Despite the fact that all participants started with a different knowledge state, they managed to keep it informative and well structured for all. The course was a mix of basic theory, real-life examples and case studies and the occasional anecdote from the "founding fathers" of scrum.

Excellent PSM II class
The Professional Scrum Master II class was excellent. The contents, materials and agenda were very good organized. The Trainers perfectly qualified to transfer their knowledge. We were challenged to solve problems and could practice and ask a lot of questions. I am really happy, it was a good investment, it helped me clarify many things, it helped to prepare for the PSMII assessment and I came back to work with a lot of new ideas and motivation.

About Jean Pierre
Jean Pierre has been working in information technology since 1992 and specializes in software development and project management. He has worked in various roles at some of the most innovative companies in software development and has been one of the first Professional Scrum Trainers of Scrum.org in Germany since 2011.
JP had his first contact with Scrum in 1995. He was working at EASEL at the same time when Jeff Sutherland Ph.D. created the first Scrum Team at EASEL.
In his professional career, Jean Pierre Berchez worked for several years in the consulting and sales of software engineering tools and as managing director of IT companies.
Since working as managing director of TogehterSoft GmbH from 1999 to 2003, the human factor for Jean Pierre has been the focus of all work. TogetherSoft Germany was organized under Jean Pierre as a company with flat hierarchies and small autonomous sales teams in which the employees could help shape the organization. Since the agile value system can be wonderfully and naturally reconciled with this approach, Jean Pierre Berchez today focuses on further training with a focus on agile and lean development (be it in the field of product development, sales or organizational development) and his "hobbyhorse" agile leadership.
Besides his work in the industry, he put emphasis on teaching Scrum as a lecturer at the Universities of Liechtenstein, Heidenheim, Ravensburg, and Stuttgart since 2004.
JP is the General Manager of HLSC (High-Level Scrum Consulting). He created the Scrum-Events network in Germany and he is the organizer of the Scrum-Day. Scrum-Day is probably the largest community conference about Scrum in the German-speaking market or even in Europe www.scrum-day.de (with more than 500 attendees).

Sehr gutes Online PSM Seminar
Sehr gutes Online PSM - Seminar mit interessanten Hintergrundinformationen, abwechslungsreich, vielen Workshops mit Teamarbeit, sehr hilfreich bei der Vorbereitung auf die PSM - Prüfung. Auch durch gutes Zeitmanagement und regelmäßige Pausenzeiten blieb bei mir die allgemeine Konzentration auch in der Online Variante stets hoch. Vielen Dank.

What it takes to be a Scrum Product Owner
Excellent training about the Scrum framework and especially the role of the Product Owner with lots of practical experiences discussed with our trainers and class members. A productive learning environment was established to reflect on the implications of living Scrum.

Absolutely excellent training workshop
It was an absolute pleasure to be part in this training! Jean-Pierre and Götz always brought up relevant examples from real life Scrum and connected them with the theorectical definitions of the Scrum guide. The additional pratices with the other workshop members made a lot of fun and everybody was motivated to do their best. Looking forward to the next workshop with you guys!

100% recommendation
The course was very well designed and structured. At every point there was the opportunity to ask questions, which were promptly answered in an appropriate manner and related to everyday work.
All relevant topics could finally be worked out by oneself through many accompanying workshops.
100% recommendation for this course on my part.

Great recommendation!
The training was great! We had fun and learned many things and now have a way more sharper eye on the logic behind SCRUM.
The only thing that I would improve is to have more time for the discussions of the participants and their situations and challenges
Great recommendation!

The course was very interactive and I gained a lot of insights from the daily challenges the other participants face. Moreover, the use of Liberating Structures as well as quotes of Jeff provided plenty of interactively generated learnings.

First of all
First of all, yes. Live class with real people, not online. Great.
Second, yes. JP and Götz did a great job, and I took a lot of input. Thanks to everybody in the class.

Great Training
Very constructive and informative training in casual atmosphere. Focus on stances and approaches instead of generic solutions. Much group interaction and less presentation. Many Liberating Structures and great "self-made structures" too. Free follow-up meeting two weeks after the training.

Good Choice to wait til on-site was possible after lockdown
Nice small group with different status of scrum implementation. Jean-Pierre and Götz configured the two days competent, varied and amusing, bringing in their rich experience using the scrum framework in different sectors.

PSM II Course with Jean Pierre and Marco
We had the PSM II Course with Jean Pierre and Marco. I really liked it and learned a lot and took many inputs with me to discuss and adopt with the teams.
Apr 6, 2021
Excellent course
In a three-day course (3x ca. 5 h), we learned about the basic concepts of Scrum, its values and real-life aspects in a really good mix of theoretical explications and pratical exercises, on which we worked in Scrum teams of ca. 5 people. The course was online due to the Corona pandemic, but the relaisation via zoom worked well for the course and in regard to all technical aspects.

3 days of learning, laughter and helpful real-life examples
Jean Pierre and Alisa did a wonderful job. The three day course on PSPO 1 was enjoyable, helpful and overall very well organized – which is even more important considering it was a remote class. Despite the fact that all participants started with a different knowledge state, they managed to keep it informative and well structured for all. The course was a mix of basic theory, real-life examples and case studies and the occasional anecdote from the "founding fathers" of scrum.

Thank you.

Excellent PSM II class
The Professional Scrum Master II class was excellent. The contents, materials and agenda were very good organized. The Trainers perfectly qualified to transfer their knowledge. We were challenged to solve problems and could practice and ask a lot of questions. I am really happy, it was a good investment, it helped me clarify many things, it helped to prepare for the PSMII assessment and I came back to work with a lot of new ideas and motivation.

The perfect combination of theoretical and practical input!
The course was highly informative since not only the theoretical scrum framework of scrum but also the background why each artifact is part of the framework and what is the purpose of it was discussed.
Thanks a lot for sharing the agile mindset and providing a lot of good working experience.
