Entry to Scrum in a Scrum Master's perspective
This class was my entry into the world of Scrum and prepared my way to become Scrum Master.
- Style: Workshop/ group work and theory with many examples out of trainer's experience
- Content: Scrum basics and Scrum Master's view and job description (two days are very short for combining basics and Scrum Master training - therefore only 4 stars out of 5)
- Great trainer: Experienced, superior leading and moderating, always open for questions and allways answered, role model himself while leading the course for beeing a Scrum Master
Thank you Marc!

PSMI: Great practical experience for the job
We as a class experienced great practical use of getting known to Scrum. Marc was able to clarify all of my questions and eliminated uncertainties I discovered so far.
He also provided useful preparation material according to the PSMI assessment. Thanks for that!
The only thing I want to suggest is to take even more weight onto the Scrum Master role as the PSMI seminar mainly focuses on Scrum in general. Maybe an additional "Scrum in general" training would be fine, too?

great knowhow, know-why and practical expertise
Marc did a great job teaching the main concepts of scrum in during a 2 day workshop. I feel definitely more confident about using the framework and the framework also makes more sense to me. Furthermore, I gained insight into the practical challenges of Scrum." He lightened up the workshop with some good humor.
For my taste, some of the exercises were a bit too long and the workshop probably could have been reduced to an intensive one day workshop in my opinion, that’s why I give not full 5 points for it.

Professional Scrum Master class
I had high expectations of the Professional Scrum Master class but they were excelled. The class and especially the teacher Marc Kaufmann helped to get a much better understanding of Scrum than just reading the Scrum Guide. I can absolutely recommend the class.

Scrum - anschaulich & erlebbar
Das Training hat nicht nur die notwendigen Inhalte für die Prüfung vermittelt, sondern durch verschiedene Übungen agile Methoden erlebbar gemacht. Dadurch wird nicht nur die Funktionsweise von Scrum verständlicher, sondern auch die Motivation für die einzelnen Artefakte, Rollen & Events deutlich. Ich kann Marc als Trainer nur empfehlen.

Scrum is based on self-organized teams. Self-organized teams are able to evolve and adapt quicker in today’s highly complex working environments than traditional command-and-control management structures.
