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. About the CourseThis two-day Certified Scrum Master course provides a look into the what, how and especially the whys of Scrum. It'll cover the theory and history of Scrum and also the practical side, mostly by stories by the trainers and discussions in the group. The course is useful for anyone who would like to know Scrum in depth, including team members, product owners, scrum masters and other stakeholders, although the course will be given mostly from the ScrumMasters perspective. Jeff Sutherland will discuss how he coaches high performance Scrum teams in a venture capital group that supports organizational development. OpenView Venture Partners runs the leading non-software Scrum in the world and will show how to get other parts of companies doing Scrum outside of IT. Jeff will be assisted by Andreas Schliep, Certified Scrum Trainer. The course length is 2 days. The first day will cover the conceptual backgrounds of Scrum and how the roles in Scrum differ from what is often seen in organizations and how this will impact the organization. The second day will cover the how-to-do things and look in detail in the different parts of the Scrum framework. Basic knowledge of Scrum is expected and some experience preferred. A great introduction to Scrum is the Scrum Primer by Pete Deemer, a Scrum Training Institute publication.

About the InstructorsJeff Sutherland started the first Scrum at Easel Corporation in 1993. He worked with Ken Schwaber to emerge Scrum as a formal process at OOPSLA ’95. Together, they extended and enhanced Scrum at many software companies and IT organizations and helped write the Agile Manifesto. He has been CTO/VP of Engineering of 10 software companies and introduced Scrum to the last six of them. Jeff is the CEO of Scrum, Inc. powered by OpenView Venture Partners and is Agile coach to 20 portfolio companies and to the OpenView venture group which runs all its operations with Scrum. As Senior Advisor to OpenView and CTO of PatientKeeper he focuses on using Scrum to transform companies as well as empower software developers. PatientKeeper quadrupled revenue in 2007 and the OpenView venture capital group is using it to create similar high performance portfolio companies.
Andreas Schliep has worked as software developer, team lead and ScrumMaster at WEB.DE, Germany, before he joined SPRiNT iT in 2006 as a full-time Scrum coach. He is now as self-employed Scrum coach and trainer who focuses on German speaking countries. Andreas is Certified Scrum Trainer since May 2008. The trainers will share the secret sauce that helps development teams radically improve productivity and quality while providing a more rewarding and fun working environment for developers.

"I find that the vast majority of organizations are still trying to do too much stuff, and thus find themselves thrashing. The only organization I know of which has really solved this is PatientKeeper." Mary Poppendieck In this course, participants will learn how to stop thrashing and start executing along with everything necessary for getting started with Scrum. There are very few rules to Scrum so it is important to learn its fundamental principles by experiencing them directly from those who have implemented the best Scrums in the software industry. Participants gain hands-on practice with the release backlog, sprint backlog, the daily Scrum meeting, tracking progress with a burndown chart, and more. Participants experience the Scrum process through a “59-minute Scrum” and the "XP Game” which simulate Scrum projects through non-technical group exercises. The CSM course was formulated to train and certify ScrumMasters and is used worldwide for ScrumMaster training. The book, Agile Project Management with Scrum, by Ken Schwaber is required reading for the course and the course is based on the primary Scrum book, Agile Development with Scrum.

While it will focus on software development, Jeff's coaches Scrum teams in sales, marketing, finance, client services, senior management teams, investment groups, and non-profit organizations. You will often find a CEO, CFO, or CEO in his classes, as well as others interested in expanding Scrum throughout their companies. There is a company in Denmark that sends every single employee to Jeff's classes including the receptionists, so everyone knows a common language and can use Scrum to improve operations throughout the company.
