GUARANTEED TO RUN
LeSS builds on top of the Scrum principles, such as empiricism and cross-functional self-managing teams, and provides two frameworks for applying that at scale. It provides simple structural rules and guidelines on how to adopt Scrum in large product development.
The Certified LeSS Basics course provides a 1-day (2*4 hours) Overview of the framework and some of the essential concepts that it uses. It will help to determine whether LeSS is for your organisation or not.
The Certified LeSS Basics course is also for anyone who is involved in the effort of a LeSS agile journey :)
What Makes Us Different?

No other provider comes close to this level of expertise.
In addition, all of our Trainers are Scrum Alliance Certified Coaches which means they have been assessed by their peers as experts in agile coaching and can also provide mentoring for aspiring CTCs.
We are the only Scrum Alliance Coaches running this course in the UK.
We keep costs low by not having a large back office team or spending large amounts on advertising. This means we can pass the savings onto our customers whilst not compromising quality.
