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.
Objectives
This hands-on, interactive class enables the course delegates to apply Scrum effectively:
- Assume the responsibilities of a ScrumMaster
- Remove the barriers between development and the customer so that the customer/Product Owner directly drives development
- Improve employee satisfaction
- Improve the engineering practices and tools so each increment of functionality is potentially shippable
Additionally, upon successful completion of the course, each participant is enrolled as a Certified ScrumMaster, which includes a one-year Scrum Alliance membership, where additional ScrumMaster-only material and information is available.
Audience
Project managers, team leads, and IT/development managers interested in successfully introducing Scrum into their organizations, as well as, product managers, business analysts, architects and developers interested in applying Scrum.
Prerequisites
Before the course, students are required to read Agile Project Management with SCRUM
