Certified ScrumMaster

All CSM courses are taught by Certified Scrum Trainers. Taking a CSM course, passing the CSM test, and accepting the license agreement designates you as a Certified ScrumMaster, which indicates that you have been introduced to and understand the basic concepts you need to perform as a ScrumMaster or team member on a Scrum team. This course also satisfies two elements of the CSD track: Scrum Introduction and Elective.

The training is focused on preparing Scrum Masters and Change Agents for the role they will play in the successful adoption of Scrum in the organization. This training is based on my experience and best practices in the implementations I've been involved with. Students learn the basics of Scrum, how to get it started, and keeping it going in their organizations.

Students will learn through interactive exercises where they will use the same techniques that are needed when they start their projects. My goal is to change the fundamental way people think about the projects and how to manage them. 

Bring and open mind and your questions/doubts/issues, we will address them!
