Professional Scrum Master Course Details:
This Professional Scrum Master course will introduce students to the fundamental principles of Scrum and the specific role a Scrum Master plays in facilitating a Scrum team. Gain an understanding of how Scrum teams are set up and how they can work closely together to efficiently resolve issues.
Scrum requires a cultural shift and mind-set change in order to manage the introduction and implementation of scrum into an organization. Scrum promotes visibility to team members and product owners of project status at any given time through tactics such as daily Scrum meetings, task-level tracking, and burndown charts. Team-based exercises provide the practical application skills and knowledge needed to bring Scrum principles to your projects.
