Scrum Team Training

The Scrum Team Training training course explores an area commonly overlooked by organizations implementing Scrum – in-depth training of the development team to help them understand their role. Agile project delivery is radically different from traditional waterfall methodologies. Rather than using command and control techniques, and handing documents from one discipline to another, the entire Agile team closely collaborates with the business and stakeholders to build the right functionality. The team is also responsible for self-organizing in order to build the functionality.

The course begins by teaching students how Scrum differs from traditional waterfall methodologies, and how to change their thinking by applying Agile values and principles. Students will next learn key Lean principles that support Agile. The course will conclude with using exercises, case studies, and examples to learn how to be an effective Scrum team member. Prior experience with software development projects will be helpful in this course.
