Professional Scrum Master
Live Virtual Class, February 24-April 21, 2025
Class Overview
If we started from scratch, knowing what we now know about effective ways to learn, what would it look like?
Professional Scrum Master (PSM) Course:A Radical New Communities of Practice Based Format
No early bird discounts (or late bird surcharges)
Goodbye two solid days of content washing over you and like a fire hose
Nice knowing you, 20 cameras-off participants idly flicking between email, instant messages, and the class
Good riddance: "Sorry I'm late, I'll watch the recording"
At the heart of this innovative approach is the creation of Communities of Practice with 4-5 long-term members. Research shows that people learn more effectively in a trusted group where they can share insights, collaborate, and grow together. This course is designed to foster such communities, ensuring a supportive, engaging, and practical learning experience.
