Amazing
Amazing! This by far has been the best Agile training I have ever taken. Erik was a great trainer and the content was very relevant to actual challenges companies face. Highly reccomend.

Pawel is Amazing
Pawel is Amazing! He did a great job of teaching remotely and utilizing Mural to get through a massive amount of material. I would highly recommend this course to anyone looking to get their scrum certifications.
Clinton Kassen
Excellent training
Ryan was one of the best, if not the best, trainer I have experienced since working here. He was very direct and succinct in his answers and gave the reason behind his answers to support. As a result, I took away a much better understanding than I may have otherwise.
CatHerders
A masterclass full of tips & tricks for agile leaders.
It was a masterclass full of real-life stories and experiences from the trenches. As a manager and experienced agilist, I learned a lot from Ryan & Todd during this highly interactive course. I strongly recommend you take the PAL-E class with Agile For Humans, you won't regret it.

Terrific class, eye-opening!
Terrific class! Get ready to do some critical thinking on difficult topics. We had some really eye-opening discussions!

Packed with Value
Packed with Value
This class has a ton of good information in it. Not enough organizations focus on running actual experiments. A lot of people think they do, but they don't formalize them, develop hypothesis, and then measure the results in a reasonable time. This class will help you learn why you want to do that and give you the tools to start.

Step up your game!
Absolutely amazing class that I've enjoyed so much. This duo rocks and kept me (and my brain) entertained for whole 2 days.
Packed with insights and knowledge sharing from others made me to take away a lot of stuff to digest.
I'd recommend this class to any Scrum Master that wants to step up their game.
Thank you Todd & Ryan!

Very educational. Coming from no Scrum knowledge and forced into a working environment called "Scrum", this really brought me up to speed and alignment with how the team functions and should function.
Fun course with these instructors!

Learn to measure what matters with the PAL-EBM course
This class with Ryan & Todd was simply amazing!
We learned a lot about the EBM framework and it's 4 KVAs. We had many opportunities to apply those concepts to our real context and industries. We even used collective intelligence (with Liberating Structures) to work each other's challenges. A great class that I would absolutely recommend to any (agile) leader. Thanks again guys!

PAL-E Training - So valuable and immediately useful
The PAL-E class was awesome. This was one of the best trainings I've attended. It was perfect for where I am in my agile journey as a leader. I was able to immediately use some of my learnings. Thank you.

Great PSK I Course!
Todd, Dan, and Ryan’s PSK I course was a fun, engaging, and thought-provoking introduction to applying flow principles to the Scrum framework. I appreciated how they broke down the content from Kanban Guide for Scrum Teams, carefully explaining each idea while emphasizing how Scrum’s empirical tenants of inspection and adaption are enhanced by the transparency provided by flow’s metrics and mindset.

Todd & Ryan's interactive style and use of mural made the 2 days fly by. The discussions were rich and thought-provoking. Would highly recommend this for any Product Owner.

Todd and Ryan are excellent trainers. They made the class very entertaining while covering complex topics in fun and engaging ways. They encourage the students to keep in touch even after the course, which is something I look forward to doing. I have lots to learn from these two for years to come. Thank you Todd and Ryan!

Ryan and Todd are true leaders in the Agile world. They were able to not only teach but also empower and push our group to really think about the practice and application of the knowledge we learned. Thank you both so much!
Nicole Osterhout
Expanded My Understanding of Kanban within Scrum
As someone who's got some knowledge of both Scrum & Kanban, I figured I already had a good handle on ways to apply Kanban practices effectively within Scrum, but it turns out, there was still more to learn! I appreciated Todd & Daniel's guidance on how to think about complex flow problems & I especially appreciated the chance to look at and review Kanban boards from other participants in the class as this solidified my understanding & helped me better identify good questions to ask to encourage improvements within my own organization and teams. This class is very activity-based and interactive, so I would suggest having some real-world experience before coming in as you'll get more out of it when you have real-world challenges you're looking to solve. I am excited to go back and apply flow metrics more consistently with my teams and feel empowered to run more data-driven retrospectives and inspection activities.

Really liked the class
Really liked the class. It provided constant hands-on activities that helped reinforce the topics. Instructors are great.
Peter Kearney
Exercises were tough but fun and representative of real world
The instructor was quite knowledgeable and made the class fun and interesting. It was not simply endless slides that were read to us, but was an interactive, collaborative experience. Parts of the exercises were very challenging - we had a very short amount of time to get ourselves organized and apply scrum principles to plan and execute a successful sprint. This was not easy but very much simulated the complexity and constraints that we face in the workplace every day.
Bracken Neff
Great class & trainers
Professional Agile Leadership Essentials is a fantastic experience for anyone that wants to understand how to improve as an agile leader. If you're looking to improve your skills and gain insights this will help you. Likely you'll be in a class with other great people to learn from as well. Todd and Ryan are fun and knowledgeable trainers who are deeply invested in helping attendees learn and succeed.
Reggie Gardner
Experienced trainers who value my time
The instructors brought their experience and many supporting stories to emphasize the points they were making. I highly recommend attending an Agile for Humans class.
Richard Hundhausen
Amazing Virtual Class with interactive group and teachers
With a solid group of 15 or so participants, Todd and Ryan walk us through the importance of Goals, how Key Value Areas need to be viewed in a balance way to ensure the viability of product and an organization.
The session was well pace, with great topic of conversation. I left the training with great information and a solid tool to add to my belt.
Thank you.

Ryan and Todd are very knowledgeable about Scrum and the Scrum Master role. I really liked how they used Mural and most importantly the class can use a key takeaway notes and actionable case studies.

Learn through experience!
Excellent class that teaches through actual experience of the students involved rather than simply telling students what is "correct". Learning through experience is best!
Isaak Cherdak
Awesome class!
This was an awesome class! It's worthwhile if you are a Scrum newbie or even a veteran looking to pick up a few bits of wisdom from a Scrum expert.
It was well organized, engaging and most of all, the content was presented in an easy to understand manner.
Thanks Todd (and Agile For Humans)!
Sean

I really enjoyed the class Ryan and Todd kept it interesting by injecting activities and a quiz throughout the training. Outstanding job!
The only suggestion I have is to maybe start with a preparatory series of targeted process questions for the attendees before the class that would allow to look at some real life situations where Kanban could help.
Yuri Kazarov
Fantastic, as usual
As always, Todd and Ryan are great co-teachers. Lots of great content and engagement. Makes the class informative and a lot of fun.

This Course is More than Worth it
This course is more than worth it. If your organization needs help implementing Scrum, don't bother trying to just learn it yourself as it is very commonly misunderstood very easily to be turned into something it is not. Also, Ryan and Todd are amazing.

Good class
The class was very informative. I had a SCM from 2013 and wanted to refresh my skills. I have been in the "Scrum Master" role (I use quotes because I play multiple roles SM). I recall Scrum being much more inflexible. The recent updates empower the Scrum team. I also have more insight on enabling the PO to provide the team backlog items that are defined and actionable.
My only recommendations for improving the class are to add more case studies and spend more time on the exam. Some sample questions and explaining the answers as per Scrum.org's perspective would be very useful.
TC
The class was great
The class was great. Both days were filled with activities that can be immediately applied to current work.
I will call out that there were some technical issues with zoom and mural at times. This is just the way it is.

Well organized and Well Instructed Class.
The Mural interactions worked well and with the breakout room discussions, it was easy to engage. Several of the breakout room segments were a little hard to understand the objective, but the teams all worked together and found the benefits of the conversations...I think we just needed a little more guidance as we were going into those breakouts sometimes.

Ryan and Todd are well versed in their experience about scrum framework and they are strongly opinionated about best practices instead of giving answers with lot of gray areas.

Great class!!! I had my doubts about taking a virtual class but the instructors did a great job keeping all participants engaged and included. Instructors were knowledgeable and relatable. Love the fact that we can take the information we've learned in the class and apply it to real-world scenarios.

Excellent session on "Applying Professional Scrum model"
Excellent session on "Applying Professional Scrum model" - learnt all insights about SCRUM, before attending this training i heard lot of scrum artifacts/terminologies but after this training got to understand clearly about each of those terminologies what are those and what they meant. Very interactive, fun learning session by Ryan and Todd Miller
Muthuvadivel Balasubramanian
Take SCRUM classes from scrum.org!
Having taken another Scrum Master course at another institution I can only say that the classes offered as scrum.org classes are far superior. Ryan and Todd keep the class moving with plenty of exercises to provide a true hands-on experience with the lessons. Highly recommend.

5 Stars for Todd and Ryan
Todd and Ryan did a terrific job delivering great content in a clear, effective and engaging manner. I've been to many in-person trainings that were less engaging than their zoom class. The mixed content with exercises and used technologies to their advantage.
I highly recommend Todd and Ryan's virtual Professional Scrum Product Owner class

I thoroughly enjoyed this two day training! In the 'Era of Covid' having to re-imagine a traditionally in person training to a completely web-based training can be hit or miss. Todd and Ryan nailed it and created a great interactive learning experience that provided tons of value.

The Ryan Todd team combination is a powerhouse of knowledge and experience. The exercises and short trainings make the time fly. They pack a lot in 2 days and make sincere connection to the questions and needs of group.
I'm particular about who I go to for training. I went to Jeff Sutherland for CSM & CSPO training. When I decided to pursue scrum.org certifications, I knew I wanted to take classes with Ryan and Todd. I'm so glad that I did.

I really appreciated the engagement, I do wish it could have been a 3 day course to fit in all the materials, although they did a fantastic job of fitting it all in for all of us. If I could give this class 4.9 stars, I would.
Suzanne Beer
PAL-E Training - Wonderful thought-provoking course
I loved this course! A great mix of material to really get you thinking what it takes to be agile leader. The course is crammed full of hands-on exercises and breakout discussions so it keeps the engagement levels high. Todd and Ryan are fantastic hosts with plenty of interesting tales to illustrate the lessons. They've clearly spent a lot of time ensuring the course works smoothly as a remote experience, and there's plenty of opportunity for even the quietest attendee to join in. Highly recommended for agile leaders of any experience.
James Radford
Situational discussions
My only regret is that I wish it had included more situational discussion. Since a portion of the assessment will include questions of that nature, there should have been more “what would you do if...” conversations. The class was really good, though. The facilitators did a good job making it feel personable and less like an online class. I liked their use of breakout rooms and taking turns running each segment.
Jessica Miller
Great course

Jennifer O'Neill
New to scrum
I came in with almost no experience working with the Scrum framework. Our team decided to implement recently and I decided I needed to better understand the concepts so I can be more productive within the framework. Ryan and Todd did a great job presenting the information and engaging even over zoom.
Matt Cochran

Always a solid review …
Always a solid review of the management perspective of scrum. It is also a bit of a general business patterns class since it reminds you what to do and not do as a management team.
Eric Snell
New perspective and Engaging
Class was very helpful and introduced new ideas for streamlining work. Todd made it fun and allowed us to collaborate and engaged us in conversation to help see different perspectives. Time flew through this class! Loved the 80's music too!
Michele Tarrence
PSM-II: Dynamic, engaging, challenging and thought-provoking
Dynamic, engaging presentation of information. Lots of good information, excellent emphasis on key points (but there are so many!). I especially appreciated a lot of the vocabulary and definition clarifications -- for instance, committing to sprint goals rather than just "the sprint."
I came out of this feeling that several assumptions and practices in which I currently engage have been tilted, and I'm re-evaluating. This is a good thing! And I learned several new (to me) methods of communication and collaboration.
Claire Abt
As one of the two people who created…
As one of the two people who created this class, I thought Ryan Ripley presented the material really well and kept our class focused on it's most important lessons. The added bonus was that he, like many of the trainers at Scrum.org, is a master facilitator. He makes it look easy but it's not. In addition to teaching the material, he modeled some great facilitation techniques as well.
Michael McPadden
Highly recommend
Todd and Ryan did a great job in running the class and explaining things. I really enjoyed the conversations with Todd and Ryan and with the other people attending the class. I feel like e renewed scrum master after taking this class :-)
