Why take this CSM course?

Because, when it comes to Agile, mindset (how you think) matters more than practices (what you do). Get into the Agile frame of mind so you can stop working harder and start working more effectively to deal with the challenging issues you face every day. After all, processes and tools can get you only so far.

Now’s the time to ask yourself the tough questions:

  • Am I satisfied to cobble together activities that seem like Scrum or am I ready to get serious about using the real thing?
  • Am I ready to truly understand Agile—to put "whys before hows," and learn the underlying principles and values that drive success before getting into successful practices—or am I satisfied to just do Agile?
  • Am I ready to start measuring value delivered and stop measuring work output?
  • Am I ready for a one-of-a-kind training experience that instills the confidence to engage successfully in Agile practices as soon as I get back to my team ?

With successful course completion, you can choose to become a Certified ScrumMaster® by passing the short exam found on the Scrum Alliance website.

The best ScrumMasters know they need the kind of training that provides actionable knowledge and skills. And you’ll join their ranks when you choose Ignite Insight + Innovation’s two-day Certified ScrumMaster® workshop.
