Here’s what you will learn in our live and interactive CSM® certification course

1. Scrum Fundamentals

Get familiar with the 12 principles and 4 values stated in the Agile Manifesto through activities. How do you demonstrate the benefits of “responding to change” in Agile over “following a plan” in traditional project management? How do the Scrum values (courage, focus, commitment, respect, openness) relate to the Scrum artifacts, events, and roles? What is an Agile mindset? Why shouldn’t the terms, Agile and Scrum, be used interchangeably?

2. Scrum Roles and Responsibilities

Learn more about the three roles in Scrum with role-based activities. What is the primary role of the Product Owner? What is the ScrumMaster’s job, and how does that differ from a project manager? What is the role of management in Scrum? Who are the stakeholders and how do they interact with the team? Why is self-organization important?

3. Sprint Planning, Execution, Review, and Retrospectives

How do you decide what you commit to in a Sprint? What do you do if something comes up and the team can’t make its commitments? How do you make sure that the customer is being properly represented? What do you do to improve team processes? How should the entire Scrum team keep track of all the work items?

4. Agile requirements analysis

Determine what you are your building. What is a user story and how is it different from a traditional “requirement”? What is an epic? What makes a good user story? How do you decompose epics into stories? How do you make sure you get the right list of requirements? How can you deal with frequently changing requirements?

5. Estimating and prioritizing product backlogs

Build a product backlog and learn how to manage it. What goes on the backlog? Who decides on the backlog priority? Who decides the order that the team does its tasks? Why is relative estimation important? What is velocity? How should ROI be calculated?

6. What does “Done” mean?

Produce a potentially shippable product. Why is the concept of “done” important and how is it different from traditional software development? Who decides if something is done? What are the components of a good definition of done? How do you divide large stories that are too big into stories that can be completed in a single Sprint? What are the consequences of a weak definition of done?

7. Core competencies of a Scrum Master

What is servant leadership and how to develop this skill? What are the techniques of Facilitation and Coaching? How to resolve impediments? How to enable high team performance? How to lead and facilitate change?

8. Get the Certified ScrumMaster® Certification

Pass the certification examination. What is the Scrum Alliance Certification? What content is covered on the exam? What are the questions like? How should you prepare? What are the mechanics of the test? Are there good ways to increase your chances of passing? Can you take the test more than once?
