Summary

This intensive two-day ScrumMaster Certification course, taught by a Scrum Alliance Certified Scrum Trainer, provides participants with a practical, fundamental guide to getting started with Scrum. One of the largest and fastest-growing Agile frameworks, Scrum is a simple, yet extremely powerful, technique to boost team productivity, elevate quality, and accelerate project delivery. This course comprises pragmatic, time-tested practices for managing product backlogs, long and short-range planning, project execution and progress reporting. The class provides an examination of the Scrum project lifecycle as well as an in-depth exploration of the Scrum roles, ceremonies and artifacts.

Exercises, case studies and examples are interwoven to illustrate the principles and practices being taught. Upon successful completion of this course, participants will be designated "Certified ScrumMaster" (CSM) including a one-year membership in the Scrum Alliance where valuable ScrumMaster materials and resources are available exclusively to CSMs.

Participants of this course will be eligible to apply for 16 PDU's toward their continuing education requirements with the PMI (Project Management Institute)
