Our Approach

Sprightbulb Learning’s Certified Agile Leadership 2 (CAL 2) course is an advanced two-day learning experience designed for leaders who want to move beyond foundational Agile concepts and focus on organizational impact. Building on the principles introduced in CAL 1, this highly interactive and collaborative course examines how leaders influence culture, structure, decision-making, and change at a systemic level. Through discussion, exercises, videos, and games, students connect leadership practices directly to the realities of their own organizations.

This course also allows students to claim 16 Scrum Alliance Scrum Education Units (SEUs) and 14 Project Management Institute (PMI) Professional Development Units (PDUs), which can be applied to Project Management Professional (PMP) and PMI-Agile Certified Practitioner (PMI-ACP) certifications.

Special discounts are available for this class. Reach out to [email protected] to see if you are eligible.

Testimonials  

"Thanks for a great class. I just wanted to let you know that I passed the exam and am now a Certified ScrumMaster. I am starting a new project and we have elected to run it using Scrum. I am excited to apply my new skills to this project.”

– Lisa P.


“I also wanted to thank you for teaching us today. The training was very helpful. I posted a picture of my Scrum Alliance profile on this email (just for fun). And the video’s we saw in class was very funny. I have already begun to look at information on the next steps for CSP. Thanks again.”

– Marbella M.


“I’m pleased to report that after taking the CSM exam almost immediately after today’s class I passed with an almost perfect score. I only missed two questions out of a total of 35 and after reading them I realized it was only because I rushed through them. I just want to thank you again for all of your help as I continue on the CSP path.”

– Antwane S.

"Your training is still one of the best I've been to over the past few years!”

– Dave K.

 

 


“I was in your Blacksburg CSM class this week. I  passed the CSM exam last night, so thank you for the excellent classroom preparation. One thing I forgot to add the course feedback was how innovative I thought it was for you to use Scrum to teach Scrum. Very well done!”

– Josh
