Course

Certified ScrumMaster (CSM)

2 DAYS | 16 PDUS

This Scrum Master (CSM) course will give you a comprehensive understanding of the Scrum methodology while reviewing the behaviors expected of a Scrum Master. Beginning with the history of agile development and moving through the disciplines promoted by Scrum, the Certified ScrumMaster (CSM) training course gives you a comprehensive understanding of the Scrum methodology while specifically reviewing the behaviors expected of a ScrumMaster. This two–day Certified ScrumMaster training course is suitable for those practicing or looking to practice the art of the ScrumMaster but is highly valuable for anyone involved in Scrum.
Even projects that have solid, well–defined project plans encounter some degree of change and waste. Shifting market conditions, budget cuts, staff restructuring, or any number of influences disrupt the best plan while contributing to customer dissatisfaction and staff discouragement. Moreover, projects that begin with changing or unclear requirements make it difficult to establish project expectations. Scrum is the agile development process that allows teams to deliver usable software periodically throughout the life of the project, evolving with new requirements as the project proceeds.

In This Course You Will Learn How To:

Explain and facilitate the Scrum roles: team member, Product Owner, ScrumMaster
Use the foundational, critical concepts of Scrum
Apply empirical thinking to your project work
Understand your team's productivity and lead them to improve it
Communicate the importance of organizational agreement on software readiness
Appreciate that the ScrumMaster role can be the most satisfying as well as the most difficult job on a project
Embrace the role of conflict resolution in Scrum
Work on real-world Scrum projects
Utilize the Scrum framework
Know when software is "done" under Scrum

Bob knew his stuff, but he really droned on and on causing me to zone out

Dr. Bob is an incredible instructor. I left this course with so much more value and knowledge than I initially expected! His enthusiasm about Scrum, its history, context and real life applications even in the face of AI was truly admirable and contagious. 5 stars across the board!

I took my test right after his class finished and I scored 100%. Thank you Dr. Bob.

Bob is a lively and informative instructor. I enjoyed the course.

Amazing Tutor and made learning fun.

Dr Schatz provided a remarkably engaging course customized to our teams and our situation, and managed to do so in a specific window of time, which was extremely helpful.

Topics were organized very well, with excellent examples presented by Bob. Great learning experience!!

Bob was a great instructor as he was entertaining, shared great applicable stories to highlight real-world examples and covered all material thoroughly. I highly recommend taking another class with Dr. ScrumBob.

Dr. Bob loves teaching and his insight is valuable
