I've been doing SCRUM for 10+ years and have implemented it in many customer teams. Mads Troels Hansen with the Technology Institute, was as the teacher was: great, insightful, relevant, practical and very open in his approach and dynamic in his answers. Thorough preparation and execution on his part.

Inspirerende undervisning!
Inspirerende undervisning!
De to-dags kursus på Applying Professionel Scrum med Mads Troels Hansen som underviser har været enormt lærerigt.
Al undervisning foregik på store post-it og ikke på skærmen, som man ellers er vant til. På den måde lærte jeg rigtig meget, også fordi vi som kursister blev inddraget rigtig meget.
Undervisningen var nøje struktureret og var inddelt i timeboxes. Genialt :-)
Jeg kan varmt anbefale dette kursus!

Mads er en fantastisk kommunikator og træner. Der var et dejligt fix af teori og praktiske øvelser, super fedt :)

The PSM course is a must have for all Scrum Masters
The PSM course is so relevant and useful when working as a Scrum Master. And the way the training was executed deserves 5 start.
I got a good understanding of what is required when working with Scrum, bough by being introduced to the framework in af good way, and by getting to know the pitfall’s and antipatterns.
The material provided for preparation by the trainer was very good and served as a good common foundation for all participants.

Mads and his co-facilitators did a great job facilitating this course securing in-debt understanding of the fundamentals of scrum, various working methods, and keeping the energy high enough to walk through this course without loosing my head.
I will definitely attend one of Mads' courses again - he has my best recommendations.

Extremely capable facilitator
"I attended the PSPO I training session executed by Mads, supported by two additional trainers in March 2021. The pre-training, training and follow-up were in very high quality and very relevant to my "stance" and situation. The training itself was very well planned and timed - and the frequent mix between theory, timeboxed group sessions and real-life input from everyone made the training very valuable to me. Mads' many years of experience with the topics increased credibility a lot. I will definitely look towards Mads for subsequent trainings. Highly recommended from my end."
