This workshop introduces you to coaching, facilitation and change management techniques that will help Scrum Masters challenge the status quo and transform the world of work. You will earn the Advanced-Certified ScrumMaster (A-CSM) designation awarded by the Scrum Alliance; the most widely recognized network of agile software development professionals in the world.  

 

 

This immersive online course will give you hands on practice with facilitation tools, coaching techniques and insights into change management. While the foundation level CSM gives you a deep understanding of the Scrum framework itself, this course will develop your skills as a Scrum Master in techniques that you can deploy within and on top of the Scrum Framework. You will leverage the experience you have gained in the minimum of one year of practice of Scrum or one years since your CSM was achieved.  

 

We know that you want an equally immersive experience online as we would have in a physical classroom. So do we. Our virtual courses offer the same expert-led, hands-on experience as always — this form of training has allowed us to introduce new types of engagement that would only be possible in a distributed and online learning environment.

​

• Drive consensus with multiple stakeholders

• Leverage various stances as coach, teacher, facilitator and mentor 

• Improve collaboration between users and developers

• Use empirical process control and the scientific method for decision-making
