Thank you for considering Responsive Advisors for your Professional Scrum training needs.  People like you have made us one of Scrum.org’s most popular Professional Scrum training partners in the world and we would be excited to have you in class!

Applying Professional Scrum™ (APS) is a hands-on, activity based course in which students experience how Professional Scrum and the Scrum framework improve their ability to deliver value compared to traditional methods. The course provides an active learning environment for students to engage in discussion, team-based exercises, and individual reflection. During the course, students work in Scrum Teams over a series of Sprints to learn Scrum while using Scrum.  Click here for curriculum details.

No way!! Our classes are small, highly interactive, and feel just like being in a room of colleagues having a discussion. We joke around, keep the mood light, but are all business when it comes to the facts about Scrum and getting you prepared for the assessment. We were first in the Scrum.org virtual Professional Scrum training space and have tons of experience making virtual classes engaging and interesting.

With our strong business and technology backgrounds, we love showing you in class how you can apply Scrum in your world. We’ll ensure you leave understanding how to connect the dots at the office.

Many Responsive Advisors’ alumni are also interested in certification to validate their knowledge of Professional Scrum. We’ve got you covered.  During class we offer numerous study tips on how to pass the assessment. We also give our alumni a unique test preparation tool which will help you more deeply understand Scrum and thus be more likely to pass the assessment.

Our courses at Responsive Advisors are much more than a static powerpoint presentation with a monotone instructor. Students learn through a mix of discussion, lecture, and hands-on activities designed to reinforce the classroom learnings. Afterwards you’ll feel confident applying what you’ve learned in the workplace. Check out this video we made to get a sense of how a class goes!

All participants completing the Applying Professional Scrum course will receive a password to attempt the Professional Scrum Master I (PSM I) assessment. APS 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 discount on the PSM II assessment once passing PSM I.

We will give you plenty of study materials to help you prepare, and even give you continuing access to our Professional Scrum Trainers after the course is over. You’ve got this!  In addition, you also get access to our exclusive alumni group where you can share tips, exchange real world ideas and chat with the trainers too! It's also a great way to hear about our upcoming alumni events.

We have taught Professional Scrum to thousands of students from a wide range of companies over the last ten years. Some come from technology, but many more do not. We’re right at home bringing Scrum to you in a way that makes sense for your business domain even well outside of tech.

We have a lot of pride in what we do, put a lot of energy into our students, and the ratings show. We consistently get 5-star ratings on Google, Trustpilot, and Facebook.

Here are some comments left by our Alumni.

Robert Pieper is the founder and Principal Consultant of Responsive Advisors. He's developed a strong ability to communicate difficult-to-grasp ideas in easy metaphors in his career. Robb has been a software developer, Scrum Master, Product Owner, consultant, and business owner.

Gregory Crown has built upon his love for discovery, technology, and teams over his professional career. His passion for helping others succeed is evident in businesses and teams he has helped to nurture. As a coach and consultant, Greg challenges teams and leaders towards increased transparency as a foundation for effective change.

Jason Malmstadt is driven to help people work better. He combines a background in technology with a relational approach to help individuals, teams, and organizations be more adaptive. He uses everyday examples to simplify complex concepts and propose practical next steps.

Taking a special interest in empowering individuals within healthy organizations, Jason helps connect theory to real-world action. Often saying (but never stopping at) “it depends”, Jason knows that one size fits all solutions rarely deliver success in complex environments. He likes to remind clients that “the ability to change your plan is more important than the plan itself.”
