CERTIFIED SCRUM PRODUCT OWNER (CSPO) WORKSHOP

Mantra:

“Scrum is simple but not easy”. Metaphorically, scrum is like losing weight!!! Conceptually losing weight is pretty simple – “Burn more calories than you take in”. However, we all know losing weight (implementation) is not at all easy for most folks. Similarly, Understanding Scrum is simple but implementing it is definitely not easy!!!

Training Style:

We believe that giving opportunity to experience doing scrum is critical to help participants understand scrum values, framework in right way and so as to use it when they go back to work. So we use lot of activities in our training. Participants will have opportunity to experience scrum concepts multiple times in the 2 day training.

Training would be conducted using Agile practices. This will help participants see Agile in action.

After teaching a concept, there will be an activity/videos for participants to experience it and validate the understanding

In 2 days, participants will be doing…
