In this highly interactive two-day workshop, participants will begin the process of identifying when Scrum-based project management is appropriate over traditional project management. Participants will also explore ways to solve complex problems using the flexible Scrum methodology.
Key Topics:
ScrumMaster vs. Project Manager
Identifying Scrum-appropriate projects
Overview of Scrum and agile fundamentals
Implementing Scrum team roles and responsibilities
The workshop will prepare participants for the Certified ScrumMaster assessment and reveal the impact of Scrum on complex project/product development. Whether participants are already practicing Scrum, interact with Scrum teams or are faced with complex project/product development, this class will sharpen their ability to more efficiently manage projects. Participants will work on a real project in class, participate in Scrum ceremonies and assume a Scrum role on a development team. Participants should come prepared to explore the practice of Scrum, why it works and how it could impact their work environment.
After the workshop, participants will need to complete an online assessment if they wish to pursue the Certified ScrumMaster designation. Participants will also have complimentary access to:
Two year membership to the Scrum Alliance ($50 value)
6-month access to a Scrum planning and implementation tool for themselves and their team members (a value of $30 per person)
Several job aids, sprint planning cards, and a workbook/reference guide
Basic familiarity with agile/Scrum is recommended, but not required. This course also offers 14 PMI PDU’s.
