The Professional Scrum Master™ (PSM) training is a course that teaches the underlying principles, and theories of the Scrum framework and the role of the Scrum Master. It combines classroom lectures and team-based exercises to teach the core of Scrum and Agile.
Over the course of two days, you will learn effective mindsets, attitudes and techniques to become an effective Scrum Master and guide new product development teams (not just software) to improve their effectiveness.
Through the course, students are challenged to think in terms of Scrum principles, while at the same time gaining a better understanding of how to practice Scrum effectively in the field.
The PSM training is more than just a lecture. During this training, students work as a team with other classmates on real-life case studies and have case-based discussions.
The training also covers topics related to the Professional Scrum Master I (PSM I), Professional Scrum Master II (PSM II), and Professional Scrum Master III (PSM III) assessments, so that those interested in these certifications can increase their chances of success.
