Hello!

I am so excited to bring to you what I consider the most exhilarating of all learning experiences - the Professional Scrum Master course from scrum.org.

In this two day (live-virtual) class particpants will be challenged to explore the Agile principles and Scrum values so they can better understand how to apply Scrum to support their teams and organizations.

Professional Scrum Master™ (PSM) is an interactive, activity-based course where participants gain a strong understanding of Professional Scrum and the accountability of the Scrum Master. Through a combination of discussion and exercises, participants develop a deep understanding of the empiricism and the agile mindset underpinning Scrum, while learning the practical application of the same by successful Scrum Teams. 

The course also includes a free attempt at the globally recognized Professional Scrum Master I (PSM I) certification exam. 

As a Professional Scrum Trainer (PST), I will bring my own experiences and stories to the class, both as a Scrum Master and from coaching Scrum Masters, and I will be curious about your circumstances and eager to learn from you. The result will be an engaging, enjoyable and challenging learning experience where participants gain an understanding of Scrum theory and principles, the Scrum Master accountabilities and why each element of the Scrum framework is essential.

Participants leave this course with an appreciation for Professional Scrum, the agile mindset and how to deal with common myths and impediments to agility. They gain the knowledge and understanding about how to choose and apply the appropriate practices and techniques that will be most beneficial for their Scrum Teams.

Prepare to be exhausted and inspired!
