Professional Scrum Master

Professional Scrum Master (PSM) is a 2-days interactive and activity-based course where students gain a strong understanding of Professional Scrum and the role of the Scrum Master. At the end of the 2-days, students develop a deep understanding of the underlying principles of Scrum and the Agile mindset while learning the practices applied by successful Scrum Teams.

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.
