Scrum Certification Course Overview:
This two-day course provides the basic principles of Scrum by the Creator of Scrum. It allows participants to assess their Scrum implementations using the practices that produce the best Scrum teams worldwide. It gives participants hands-on experience using Scrum by simulating Scrum projects. The first simulation provides experience with the basic Scrum practice in a 59-minute Scrum through a non-technical group exercise. The second simulation leads participants through the entire planning and estimation phase of setting up the first Scrum. The third simulation provides hands on experience of executing a Scrum pulling from the Product Backlog, creating a Sprint Backlog, and delivering velocity of production during a Scrum. The secret sauce that Dr. Sutherland uses to coach over 20 venture funded portfolio companies will be described. This will show how participants can practically apply the Scrum roles (Product Owner, ScrumMaster, and Team), the Scrum meetings (Sprint Planning, Daily Scrum, and Sprint Review with a demo and Retrospective), and the Scrum artifacts (Product Backlog, Sprint Backlog, Burndown Charts, and Working Software) to double and then quadruple the productivity and quality of their teams. Participants will learn how to scale Scrum projects to any size, how to distribute them locally and globally, and how to use outsourcing to produce extreme business value.
Dr. Sutherland’s courses are used to train every person in all roles in some companies. Participants are using Scrum on senior management teams, in marketing, sales, consulting, client services, installations, and support, as well as development. While successful completion of the course designates each participant Certified ScrumMaster, the course is designed to help anyone in any role in a Scrum company, as well as being the best available training for ScrumMasters. This certification includes a one-year membership in the Scrum Alliance, where additional ScrumMaster-only material and information are available.

Participants Will Learn:
* Proven practices developed in nine companies where Dr. Sutherland has been CTO or VP of Engineering
* How to set up Scrum teams and begin work in the most effective way
* How to create, prioritize, and estimate user stories for the product backlog
* The role of management in a company powered by self-organizing teams
* How to help both new and experienced teams be more successful
* How to scale Scrum to large, multi-continent projects building systems with millions of lines of code.
* The secret sauce developed from the instructor's fifteen years of using Scrum that is used by venture capitalists and venture funded companies worldwide.

Scrum

Scrum is a framework for effectively managing complex projects, programs, and enterprises. Using iterative, incremental techniques, Scrum harnesses self-managing, cross-functional teams to improve productivity and quality, and provide actionable information and techniques for managing risk and return on investment every iteration. This course teaches people in leadership and management roles how to use Scrum to achieve these benefits.

Why?

Agile management is as radically different from traditional management as agile processes are different from traditional methodologies. Rather than plan, instruct and direct, the agile project manager facilitates, coaches and leads. This person is called a ScrumMaster in the Scrum agile process to denote the difference and remind the person filling this role of the new responsibilities. Accepted participants learn how to be a ScrumMaster and how to make a development team, a project, or an organization agile. The ScrumMaster is the person responsible for the proper execution of Scrum and all change within the engineering and overall organization. Exercises, case studies, and examples used to bring home the realization of how to be a ScrumMaster. All participants are expected to understand Scrum basics prior to attending this course through reading material on the web or perusing the book, "Agile Project Management with Scrum" by Ken Schwaber. This course is "how to" not "what."

Goal

Each individual is trained to be able to assume the following responsibilities:
1. Remove the barriers between development and the customer so the customer directly drives development;
2. Teach the customer how to maximize ROI and meet their objectives through Scrum;
3. Improve the lives of the development team by facilitating creativity and empowerment;
4. Improve the productivity of the development team in any way possible; and,
5. Improve the engineering practices and tools so each increment of functionality is potentially shippable

Pedigree

The Certification program was started in April, 2003. There are already over 22,000 Certified ScrumMasters. As a result of their successful completion of the program, each participant received an individual license and copy of the Scrum methodology, Scrum training materials, and Scrum software. In addition, Certified ScrumMasters are authorized to participate in "open" development of the Scrum methodology and software, ensuring a growing body of knowledge from a qualified, competent group of certified professionals.
