About this course
Course Overview
The application of Scrum for software development is increasing rapidly. Many organizations are considering applying or already using Scrum. Scrum is also increasingly used outside of ICT. Many available tools and Scrum training courses focus on the theory of Scrum and only to a lesser extent on the application. This while 'the power of Scrum' lies precisely in its simple picking up and application. This Scrum Master course therefore offers you the opportunity to link theory and practice.
During this two-day Scrum Master training you will learn everything about working as a Scrum Master and / or Scrum team member. In addition to a piece of theory about the basic concepts of Scrum, the training offers various tools and exercises to apply Scrum directly in practice. The training also prepares you for the Scrum Master exam to obtain the Professional Scrum Master certification from Scrum.org (PSM I). This exam is included in the price.
