Description

Learn Scrum From Those Who Created and Maintain It

Professional Scrum MasterTM (PSM) is a 2-day course that covers the principles and (empirical) process theory underpinning the Scrum framework, and the role of the Scrum Master in it. This course is a combination of instruction and team-based exercises, and teaches what is at the heart of the Scrum and Agile movement. The course also includes a free attempt at the globally recognized Professional Scrum Master I certification exam (PSM I).

Professional Scrum Master Certification

All participants completing the Professional Scrum Master course will receive a password to attempt the Professional Scrum Master I (PSM I) assessment. PSM class participants who attempt the PSM I assessment within 14 days of receiving their free password and do not score at least 85% will be granted a 2nd attempt at no additional cost.

You are also entitled to a 40% discount on the PSM II assessment once passing PSM I.

What You Will Learn

Over the 2 days, students will see why PSM is the cutting-edge course for effective Scrum Masters and for anyone coaching a team toward increased efficiency and effectiveness. The course includes advanced thinking for servant-leadership and behavioral shifts.

Throughout the course, students are challenged to think in terms of the Scrum principles to better understand what to do when returning to the workplace.

The PSM course is much more than just a set of slides and an instructor. In this course, students work on real-life cases with other classmates together as a team. This course is made up of discussions and hands-on exercises based upon real-life cases.

Instructor

Matt Dominici

Professional Scrum Trainer, Agile Coach

An experienced Agile Coach with over 13 years of experience in IT/Software development, including 7 years in leadership and coaching roles. My experience as Director of QA became increasingly frustrating, as I found my teams responsible for only the ‘end of the line’ of large waterfall projects. This lead me to ‘discover’ agility, and I quickly worked to shed the management title, and become a full-time Scrum Master.

Since then, I’ve also played the role of Coach, Development Team Member and Product Owner at a diverse set of organizations – from bootstrapped technology start-ups to 150 year old incumbent Financial Institutions. Along the way, I’ve developed a high level of respect and empathy for both the technology and human elements of organizational transformation. I love working with teams and individuals, helping them each along the way in their agile journey.
