Paul Ralton

Very good contents. Trainer with deep knowledge about Scrum and a lot of experience.

Paul is an exceptional scrum trainer. He is pragmatic in his approach and good at discussing the things in between the extremes.

I recently had the pleasure of attending a Scrum training facilitated by Paul Ralton. The overall experience was incredibly insightful and enriching, providing a comprehensive understanding of Scrum principles and practices. Their real-world examples and practical insights added a valuable layer of depth to the theoretical concepts. One of the highlights of the training was the level of engagement facilitated by the trainer. Interactive discussions, and group activities - highly recommend.

Paul's did not only impart knowledge and place us in situations calling for us to think and act as Scrum Masters, but also capably embodied the ideals of the framework and effectively mentored us through his example. Highly recommend.

Paul Ralton was undoubtedly one of the best teachers I have had the pleasure of learning from. He was clear, easy to follow, interactive, and passionate about Scrum. I could not more highly recommend doing a scrum course with Paul!

I really like the use of miro in the online course. Also the examples and dynamic of the course was great. Definitely a great start into the Agile world!

The class was really informative with multiple breakouts that allowed to also learn from others knowledge and experience. Paul was a great trainer and made the content clear and easy to understand while answering questions and providing guidance.

Great trainer, atmosphere that encourages to ask questions. Very good tempo as well with the breaks, exercises and theory. Would recommend to everyone!

Completed Professional Scrum Master course with Paul Ralton. The course was professional, interesting, interactive and enjoyable. It also worked as I passed the Professional Scrum Master 1 Course after the second day.

Thanks Paul for the last two days. It was a very informative, interactive PSM Training. The exercises and break-out session were a great way of getting a better understanding and applying an agile mindset. Examples from your vast experience and your advice on how to further develop my skills were highly appreciated.

Paul made the training very interactive with lots of discussions and breakout sessions. Whenever the information was too overwhelming, he ensured we had enough breaks to recharge. Paul is an excellent trainer and pays attention to the needs of each participant.

Thank you Paul for facilitating a great PSM1 training for us. Loved the use of miro board and the numerous exercises that helped us stay clued at all times. You also gave us lots of great takeaways for later reading and self learnings to apply the knowledge at our work environment as well as to pass the test. Thanks!

Paul was a great instructor for this course. He was knowledgeable about the topic as well as it's contextual applications and left room for us as a class to discuss topics. The course was delivered at a steady pace, with plenty of opportunities for questions or further discussions

It is not only a theoretical course. They have a lot of good exercises. The mentality is no question is a stupid question. Each person has the possibility to share their own experiences

I thought it was a good course and left quite light at the end. The session had a good mix of break out sessions which was a good opportunity to mix with others during the two days.

Paul Ralton is an excellent trainer - the class was extremely well structed and Paul knew how to keep the group engaged throughout both days. He encouraged the group to think and discuss how what was being taught would apply in the real world.

Great explanations and great steering of the attendees. Answered all questions and used examples which are ingrained in memory easily!

The training was awesome! I am a visual type of person so using MIRO whiteboard with so many graphics and notes just made it easier to understand and digest information. There were so many live case scenarios during the 2 days where you had the chance to get to know your mates and brainstorm ideas. It was super interactive and I am not exaggerating when I say that it was the first training where I was not getting bored with PPT slides. Paul is an excellent trainer and a great person who supports you along your learning path even after your training. I absolutely recommend him! Thank you!

It was actually a great class and I really enjoyed it! I had Paul Ralton in my PSM II class and I was so satisfied by that experience, so I booked my PSPO I again with Paul. Paul is a great coach and trainer, and his classes are very interactive, so that you can never be bored. I enjoyed the conversations that sparkled throughout the class, and of course the learning we got. I would definitely recommend PSPO I as a class and certainly Paul as a trainer.

Really insightful and led by a great trainer

The course was super interactive and had a great balance between theory and exercises. Paul is a great trainer and managed to provide a very well structured material with enough space for discussions and questions.

Paul was a fantastic trainer who kept the group engaged and was always really helpful. The course itself was really good - got me thinking about the framework itself and how I can implement scrum in my team

Excellent class. Paul was engaging, knowledgeable and committed to our learning making the course a valuable experience.

Paul is an excellent coach with a clear and very deep understanding of what he’s teaching. Moreover, he’s pragmatic and understands that not every business or teams works in the same way and is able to draw on his experience to give guidance as to how you might apply Scrum in various situations, businesses, etc. The lessons were well planned, engaging, collaborative and deeply informative. The software tools used over the two days were great also, and really helped with the sharing, collaboration, and flow- tools I’ll definitely be looking to use myself.

A lot of interaction with all group, it was a good experience.

Paul's expertise in his field is truly remarkable. He possesses a deep and comprehensive understanding of the subject matter and his ability to convey complex concepts in a way that is accessible and relatable is truly impressive. Beyond his expertise, Paul goes beyond to offer additional resources and recommendations for further learning.

Such an amazing course, really brought the Scrum Guide to life for me and Paul was fantastic. I can't fault it - the right balance of tools, breakout rooms and information sharing. Everything was timeboxed well and Paul made the course very informative and fun!

Pauls teaching style is very engaging, that has the personal touch making his students feel welcomed. He ensures learning and understanding takes place throughout the 2 days, with use of fun quizzes and group exercises. His knowledge and ability to answer all questions asked was fantastic! I will certainly be looking for additional courses to attend that Paul teaches. This is one of the best remote courses I've attended, to date!

really good, very interactive and opportunity to ask plenty of questions and the trainer Paul was great at sharing his own experience to bring to life the course content

Paul is a gifted man with a passion for his work. An awe-inspiring experience in such a short time.

Great course! Paul was very engaged and facilitated meaningful discussions. I would recommend the course to anyone, who is interested in being a SCRUM Master.

Great course! Very interactive filled with invaluable insights and engaging discussions. Paul was also very supportive throughout the course. Would definitely recommend!

Paul is an excellent trainer, very knowledgable about SCRUM with a great way of creating a safe space everyone feels encouraged to participate in.

Paul Ralton was a fantastic trainer, really passionate and engaging. He didn't go off on tangents but did use his personal experience which made for an interesting class.

Great course Great trainer as I was able to pass the exam at my first attempt so highly recommend.

Paul is excellent coach, the training was well-organised, interactive and to the point, clear explanations with the examples. I passed the exam with 97%.

Excellent quality of the training! Engaging, interesting and focused on key pieces.

I found Paul to be a brilliant trainer, very informative. Made the on-line learning experience more of a classroom based experience.

It was one of the best trainings I ever had. Paul made the course so interactive and interesting that it was a pleasure for me to listen to all the great things he explained to us. It was really interactive with the other classmates and inspired lots of conversations and reflections. I would definitely try to attend Paul in other trainings if I can.

Good class A verry good interesting class. Interactive and great excersises.

Paul was really friendly, had a great pace and felt truly interested in questions. The course is varied and easy to follow.

A great trainer, a brilliant group and really useful course content! Thanks Paul for a fantastic couple of days, hope to join another of your courses soon!

Super interactive course!

Fantastic trainer. Paul is highly engaging and has vast knowledge and experience on the subject. Would highly recommend and look forward to joining future training opportunities.

Gave me insight into what the framework is for and how to use it to add value to my team

Easily the most engaging course I've ever done. Trainer (Paul) made it fun and interactive helping to cement learning. I wish every course and facilitator was this good.

Paul used a variety of techniques and interactive experiences to ensure the content was vibrant, interesting and engaging. It was clear to see his passion for the subject and a great learning experience.

I thoroughly enjoyed my experience at the PSM I course with Paul! I gained a lot of knowledge that was then tested and reinforced in a very collaborative setting, which was fantastic and helped me engage fully in the course. Moreover, it helped to prepare me to take the theory into practice within the workplace. I would highly recommend taking the course to anyone looking to become a Professional Scrum Master.

I recently attended a Scrum training workshop led by Paul, and I am delighted to share my experience. The workshop was a transformative learning opportunity, thanks to the expertise, enthusiasm, and teaching style of Paul. From the moment the workshop began, it was evident that Paul possessed a deep understanding of Scrum principles and methodologies. His ability to communicate complex concepts in a clear and concise manner was truly remarkable. He adeptly balanced theory with practical examples, ensuring that participants gained a comprehensive understanding of Scrum and its real-world applications. One of the Paul's greatest strengths was his engaging and interactive teaching style. He fostered an environment that encouraged active participation, collaborative discussions, and hands-on exercises. This approach not only made the learning process enjoyable but also enhanced our comprehension and retention of the material. Paul's enthusiasm for Scrum was contagious, creating an atmosphere of enthusiasm and motivation among the participants. What set Paul apart was his genuine care and commitment to the success of each participant. He patiently addressed our questions, provided personalized guidance, and ensured that everyone felt comfortable and included. I wholeheartedly recommend Paul to anyone seeking to gain a solid understanding of Scrum or enhance their existing knowledge.

The course was very engaging and informative, and what I particularly liked, was the breakout sessions, where we had a chance to apply what we have learned. Thanks a lot.

I participated in two full days of virtual training with Paul, and even though the days are long, I have to say this is one of the best virtual trainings that I have ever experienced. It was engaging all the way through, it was very interactive, and there was a really good mix of theory and practice. It was also a really great group with opportunity to get to know the different participants to regroup work. I would 100% recommend this course.

The course was very informative, very interactive and I can only describe it as a journey of discovery. I found Paul to be a great teacher and the 2 days went by in a breeze. I feel very confident to take the certification exam, considering all that I have learnt in the last two days.

I absolutely loved this course with Paul Ralton. He's a great instructor, not just because he is VERY knowledgeable but also because he makes it so interactive and engaging. Doing this alone would be hard work but as a group it was so much fun. We had a real mix of backgrounds and experience levels which meant everyone was learning from everyone. I would highly recommend to anyone working in (or hoping to work in) Scrum!

A huge thank you to Paul Ralton, the human embodiment of the Scrum Values, for your excellent support, facilitation, mentoring and fun presentations. Usually after 2 day long sessions one feels drained, but I'm rearing to go!

Great course filled with lots of engaging content surrounded with real world relatable examples. Paul Ralton made the two days pass quickly by providing a constantly engaging environment and allowing time for plenty of engaging questions both during, before and after each session. Ample breaks were provided to ensure your attention never wavered. Would recommend Paul and this course!

We appreciate Paul Ralton for presenting the educational, interesting, and entertaining session. The approach in which topics were taught—using relevant examples from everyday life and an engaging quiz—made it very simple to comprehend the scrum framework. Every subject was well covered. The breakout sessions and the subsequent talks were both highly beneficial. If anyone has any questions, he stayed late and arrived early to the Zoom meeting. All things considered, it was a wonderful experience, and Paul is a superb instructor, coach, and facilitator.

Great communicator and teacher! The class was very helpfull, I've had several scrum presentations/mini-talks within the company but it was only in this course I realized the true potential of Scrum on a day to day work basis.

I was completely new to the Scrum framework and have now left with a good understanding of the key roles, responsibilities and applications. Paul created a safe space to ask open questions and allowed time for discussion and well-earned breaks. I've also picked up a few tips on best practice meeting facilitation! Thank you.

Very usefull and helpfull course. A lot of interactions between all the participants and Paul Ralton was a very important point.

Had a great learning time during the PSM I session with Paul. The interactions and the communication were top class and i definitely would recommend and be happy to join for future PSM sessions.

Paul is a very good trainer, taking care to involve every participant into the discussions and keeping an eye on the progress throughout the class. It was a very engaging training with lots of exercises and good examples.

I attended the PSM 1 course by Paul Ralton and thoroughly enjoyed learning in his class. He made the course engaging and insightful. Also, he went out of his way to ensure all the questions were answered and was super organised with the material. It all came to life because he used real examples while explaining Scrum concepts.

I really enjoyed Paul Ralton's course. He made the content of the Scrum Master course digestible by bringing great examples that stick in your memory (hopefully for a long time), tips and tricks. Paul Ralton also did a great job at letting people express themselves. Everyone feels heard and people who already have project management experience can share with the class, which is a great added value.

It was very nice two days I spent on Professional Scrum Master Course. I specially liked some practical tips, which I decided to use in my current work. I haven't taken the test yet, but after two days of training I feel pretty well prepared for the exam.

Perfectly paced training with an excellent balance of theory, exercises and group feedback. The supporting material was comprehensive, complimenting current learning objectives and further development where there was interest to do so. I'd highly recommend Paul as a trainer as well as this course to anyone looking to train in Scrum.

Paul brought a real energy to the class and was an excellent teacher and facilitator throughout. It was entertaining and informative!

I have been trained for PSM1 class and will led this kind of new ideas or knowledges to apply at my workplace to achieve more effective work.

Excellent class with lots of new material to learn, new technics to use and ample opportunities to reflect on the essence of SCRUM and its implementation. Very interactive and thought provoking experience, thank you Paul!

Really enjoyed the pacing and variety. The only thing was that one of the activities was quite targeted at coding, as a team using scrum primarily for Marketing this was difficult to contribute to. But other than that was brilliant and really helpful.

Thoroughly enjoyed the course. Was really good to refresh on previous learned knowledge as well as gain new knowledge that already has me thinking how I can use it within my role. Would be good if a period of time was to cover some practice questions as a group and discuss the answers in full. Also, a thank you to Paul - a quality facilitator/trainer with a huge breadth of knowledge and created a first class environment for learning

The class was very practical and engaging. The right examples were used to ensure everyone understood. The content was very well delivered and time management was outstanding.

The knowledge and hands-on experience of the trainer is invaluable and helped me understand the Scrum theory better, I particularly like the big Scrum Framework chart (drawing) which nicely connects various components of Scrum and provides a very clear holistic view. The discussions, experience sharing and Q&A during the class have deepened my understanding of Scrum and even applied Scrum to my work. Also, this class gave me a lot of confidence to pass the Exam!

Really enjoyed the course, Paul was an excellent trainer and kept the online sessions interesting and engaging.

I thought the format worked really well. I was a bit sceptical about doing this sort of course remotely, but it was great. The use of Zoom (with breakout rooms) and using the Miro boards really felt like being with all people in the actual same classroom!

This has been a valuable use of 2 days. Having been a scrum master for 14 months this has brought the on the job learning into reality. I wish I had done this course 9 months ago! Paul Ralton had an excellent manner about him and made this online course very engaging and at no point did it drag which is a first for any online course I have done. Very visual which also generated great discussion.

The professional scrum master class was well paced and gave a great foundational overview of the scrum framework, practical applications and benefits. Paul Ralton presented the course content and provided the opportunity for collaborative discussion through use of breakout sessions and tasks which worked well in a remote setting. Paul was inviting of questions and gave clarity to the course scope by providing additional reading materials and resources.

Really enjoyed the scrum master training with Paul. Definitely worth reading the Scrum guide in detail before to get the most out of the sessions.

The PSM training was well delivered and very interactive, with a lot of breakout room activities and discussions. This format allowed for collaboration and experience sharing among the group and enhanced retention of the theory. Trainer Paul was very knowledgeable and available to answer any questions throughout the day. Would recommend.

The training was well organized and highly interactive. There was a good mix of theory, exercises, quizzes, collaboration and sharing experiences. Paul is a very friendly, approachable and fun person. He went above and beyond to make sure all our questions were answered to the highest standards. An amazing experience overall!

I highly recommend this class for those with all levels of Scrum experience. The trainer was knowledgeable and friendly, and fielded all questions from the attendees without breaking stride. The training materials used (primarily Miro) were excellent for keeping an online experience interactive and engaging, and a comprehensive reading list was provided for further information on the subject.

Paul is an amazing teacher and has made this class fun and easy

Paul was an excellent facilitator. He kept the class moving forward over the 2 days whilst effectively managing the different backgrounds and levels of experience of the participants

It was a great experience with Paul Ralton.

I really enjoyed this course. It was a great mix of taught content and group exercises. The emphasis is on group work, which is appropriate for the PSM II course. Paul is an excellent course teacher with a rounded command of his subject. He communicated the concepts in a clear way and used the output from group exercises to make his points. He was approachable, clear and supportive of the delegates. I appreciated both that delegates can use all the group exercises from the course with their own teams and the introductions to Liberating Structures, Evidence Based Management and Flow Metrics.

An interesting course, presented in an innovative and enjoyable manner. Paul managed our time and energy levels superbly, and I wouldn't hesitate to attend further courses with him as the instructor!

Paul was a fantastic trainer for my PSM 1 experience. As a Scrum/Agile newbie I wasn't sure quite what to expect before hand, Paul eased us in to the course material and helped develop understanding with examples, scenarios, conversation and lots of interactive activities. As a trainer and facilitator myself I have high standards and Paul helped us navigate this learning experience expertly. I passed the PSM 1 assessment a day later. Would 100% recommend.

Paul was an excellent trainer, very engaging and explained concepts clearly. Came away with a deep understanding of the concepts of Scrum.

I found the training very engaging and interactive. I enjoyed the exercises as they gave me the ability to put what I learnt into practice.

Very interactive class covering both theory and practice comprehensively. Great preparation for the PSM1 certification. Highly recommended!

Paul Ralton (the trainer) was very helpful all through the session and the course was a really eye opener to scrum.

The PSM I course was very well organised and taught by Paul Ralton in an engaging and interactive way. I didn't know anything about Scrum beforehand but I learnt so much in the 2 days that I feel like I can apply it to my job. I recommend it for people of all levels, even if you don't directly work in a scrum team.

It was a clear step by step organized course. A nice combination of theory and practising together in groups. Paul was very helpfull and took the time for every question. I feel that I want to learn more about scrum and agile.

Its a great course , with lots of useful exercises . Paul was an amazing teacher and took the time to make sure we all understood scrum in detail

This PSPO course was exceptional, and the trainer greatly influenced its outcome! I learned much about the Scrum framework and its intertwining with a successful product ownership. Paul was particularly attentive to create a safe and open environment where we could address any question or concerns. It was truly well organised, structured and the material provided was excellent. Moreover, as I did not pass my first PSPO exam attempt, Paul was also keen to help me understanding how to better prepare. Scrum.org definitely provides top-quality teaching, I highly recommend this course to any PO who wants to excel in his/her role!

The course was very complete and interactive, it s a perfect first approach to Scrum for those who are wondering if it is their next step. Paul is a great trainer, he promoted valuable interactions and went through the theory in a very smooth and helpful way.

Paul was a incredibly knowledgeable trainer who made the course fun and easy to understand, using a wide range of techniques. Very inspiring.

PSM gives you another perspective about how things can be done differently. Paul Ralton is a great PST, he made everything accesible and dynamic. Overall a great experience.

Great course, great trainer, well spoken and very friendly atmosphere! Scrum well explained at good pace with lots of examples and exercises. Highly recommended!

As it was my first contact with Scrum I was afraid I will not be able to follow the context, exercises, etc. However, Paul leaded the 2 days in the way I was comfortably able to follow. How is more, the presented content was clear, structured, support by various discussions and exercises. Obviously, still many things to leant and practice but this is a journey and mindset.

It was better than I expected. I've tried varying sources about SCRUM like books, online videos, tutorials, etc., but this one... this IS the "true" SCRUM training.
