Certified ScrumMaster

Certified ScrumMaster (CSM) - Canberra, Australia - 13-14 March 2013

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.

Course Overview

Our Certified ScrumMaster (CSM) training is an engaging two-day course designed to immerse you in Scrum’s fundamental principles while also offering a wide range of highly practical tactics, techniques and tips that work in the ‘real world’.   This interactive course features a blend of activities, exercises, in-depth discussions and presentation-style segments to ensure that all learning styles are engaged and solidified with real scenarios. 

Having come from a PMP and PRINCE2 background and worked in a range of different sized organizations, your instructor Ilan Goldstein is uniquely suited to help others who are looking to make a similar transition. In addition, he is one of only five CSTs in the world who has been invited to write a book for the highly acclaimed and hugely popular ‘Mike Cohn Signature Series’ published by Pearson, the largest publisher in the world.

This globally recognized certification also comes with a two year Scrum Alliance membership giving you unique access to a growing community of Scrum practitioners. In addition, we also feel that ongoing education is critical so we support you by offering as part of your attendance, two seminal books to start your Scrum library (you’ll have to turn up to find out what other goodies you get in your gift bag...)
