Training has been top notch
The training so far has been outstanding. I find the self-paced learning path material very applicable. However, I would like to see more real-world examples and case studies in it.
I took a class with Responsive Advisors, which was well-worth the money. The instructor was incredibly knowledgeable and personal. The visuals and the slide decks supported the discussion and interaction, rather than the other way around. If possible, anyone pursuing certification ought to try to get into a class and take advantage of the expertise and group atmosphere.

Excellent training experience
Excellent remote training experience! Jeff Maleski did an excellent job engaging us with Scrum and brought real-world examples into the virtual classroom. The exercises were thought-provoking and helped drive better understanding. He did a great job helping us understand the "why" behind the Scrum process framework. I would absolutely take another class from Jeff and highly recommend him!

Outstanding Scrum Master training experience!
I took Jeff Maleski's Professional Scrum Master I training class in Seattle with a co-worker and cannot emphasize enough how useful, insightful, and chock full of tips and examples it was filled with. The class size was nice and small (6 total students; two from Starbucks, two from a large local law firm, and my co-worker and I), which gave us a lot of time for questions regarding specific situations and challenges we've seen as Scrum Masters within our respective organizations.
Jeff's willingness to take questions at any time, his good humor, and his keen storytelling ability helped us all really get into the course materials. And he didn't just make us memorize things... he took the time to role-play with us during our exercises and put us in the hot seat, much like we'll see during our day-to-day work life.
I walked away from the class feeling empowered, excited, and ready to get back to work and applying what I've learned to help our team. I can't say enough good things about Jeff and the class itself.

Excellent Course with Practical Learning
I had read Essential Scrum, The Scrum Guide and been working with my company to implement Agile methodology for over a year. Still, nothing was better for understanding what Scrum is, how it is used and what my role within it would be than sitting through this class. In addition to just reviewing the training material, talking through specifics with the class and going through live exercises really crystallizes what it is and how it can be used.

The information provided was very useful. The trainer did a great job of distilling it down to real world examples that helped me understand the value of the information. I would definitely recommend it to anyone working in Agile as a PO/TPM. I look forward to taking additional training.
