Great session to attend if you're looking for CSM certification.

Raj Kasturi was a fantastic instructor. He made this course relatable by providing real-life instructions and scenarios. For those unfamiliar with Scrum, he provided all the necessary information to understand the concept fully.

Raj Kasturi provided an engaging, informative and interactive CSM training with excellent presentations, examples and analogies that made learning Scrum very easy to follow.

I had a very positive experience with Raj on CSM certification course. He made the weekend training fun and engaging for everybody. Highly recommend Raj on his courses!

I had the pleasure of attending Raj’s Certified ScrumMaster (CSM) training session, and I can confidently say it was one of the most impactful and well-structured sessions I’ve participated in. Raj combines deep subject matter expertise with an engaging and practical delivery style, making complex Scrum concepts both accessible and actionable. What stood out most was his clarity in explaining real-world scenarios, his patience in addressing diverse questions, and his strong command of Scrum best practices—especially how CSM principles align with broader project delivery frameworks. Whether you're new to Scrum or looking to advance your understanding, Raj’s training delivers exceptional value. I highly recommend him as a CSM trainer for any professional or organization committed to Agile excellence.

Great teacher, who cares about how and what you learn. If you’re going to spend 16 hours in a class on a weekend, Raj is the perfect teacher for that opportunity!

Raj is absolutely amazing! He is super nice, always patient, and genuinely understanding. Whether you’re asking for help or clarification, he takes the time to listen and respond thoughtfully. One of the things I appreciate most is the quality of the content and scenarios he provides—they’re always well-structured, relevant, and insightful. It’s clear he puts real effort into everything he shares, and it makes a huge difference. Working with Raj is not only helpful, it’s a pleasure!

Raj is a fantastic trainer. His course was not only informative but was also fun

Very thorough training and explained everything he taught with great detail. It’s impossible to not become a CSM with him as your trainer.

Raj Kasturi is an excellent instructor. He uses strong real-life examples that make the concepts much easier to grasp and remember. The sessions were packed with interactive, thoughtful activities and he kept the pace engaging throughout. He's clearly experienced and really knows the material inside and out. I especially appreciated how much practical context he brought in. I took the exam immediately after the class ended and passed quickly without any trouble. Overall, it was a great class and I left feeling much more confident.
