Course Overview

During this class, learners acquire the skills to put Professional Scrum into practice. They are introduced to agile methodologies that facilitate teams in delivering more value, satisfying stakeholders, and fostering better collaboration. Participants collaborate in a series of Sprints—mirroring real-world complexity—to tackle intricate problems, leveraging Scrum to navigate these challenges. This hands-on approach with Sprints provides tangible insight into Scrum’s practical application and the advantages of an Agile mindset. The course also reveals common pitfalls and misconceptions associated with Scrum usage, enabling students to identify the signs and devise corrective measures. The aim is not just to teach students Scrum, but to equip them with the knowledge to utilize Scrum effectively.
