Learn the essentials of working as a ScrumMaster or Scrum team member in this course. While the Scrum Alliance provides a list of core concepts that must be covered in the class, each instructor creates his or her own material, allowing courses to differ based on the strengths, interests, and experiences of the instructor.

Update 20-JAN08: I am working on scheduling a second class in April. Please email me if you would like to be notified.  This class is at capacity. 

The Certified ScrumMaster Course (“CSM”) is a 2-day course provided by Ascentium Corporation (“Ascentium”) which introduces the concepts of Agile project leadership using the Scrum methodology.  Successful participants will become Certified ScrumMasters, a first step in the journey towards this more adaptive form of project leadership.  Through this CSM training course, students will learn how to plan and run Sprint Planning Meetings, daily Scrum Meetings, Sprint Reviews, Sprint Retrospectives and more.  Successful participants will be listed as Certified ScrumMasters on the Scrum Alliance website and will receive a one year membership to the Scrum Alliance.

The target audience size for this course is up to 30 people.

The course format consists of multiple lecture topics, group exercises and group discussion.  Ample time will be devoted to analysis of the “real-world” industry experiences of the ScrumMaster Course instructor based on case study examples and his experience managing Agile projects and coaching Scrum teams.
