We believe in meaningful long-term development. Real-life application and continual feedback make this journey impactful and powerful. Lay the foundation for developing great teams and great products.

How does this work?

Cohort-based

This fosters engaging discussions, peer learning, and individualized feedback to accelerate your mastery of Scrum principles and practices.

Learning modules

The learning modules don't just stick to the basics outlined by certification bodies. They dive much deeper, focusing on real-world application. The modules offer enough flexibility to address the specific challenges of each cohort.

Coaching session

To optimize individual benefits, each student is entitled to a coaching session. They have the flexibility to choose between agile or professional coaching, empowering them to focus on either their professional or personal development.

Certification

Our training prepares you for the Scrum.org PSM I exam, ensuring industry recognition for your Scrum Master certification aspirations. The certification fee of $200 per assessment attempt is to be paid separately directly at Scrum.org.

Any questions?

Why are your cohorts so small?

Our small training cohorts prioritize quality over quantity. We’re dedicated to providing personalized support and development to ensure every Scrum Master reaches their full potential. By keeping our groups small, we guarantee that everyone’s voice is heard and valued throughout the journey.

Does this include a certificate?

Our training equips you for the industry-recognized Scrum Master exam from Scrum.org (PSM I). However, our focus is on fostering a profound understanding of the subject matter, not just memorization for a standardized test. We prioritize comprehensive learning over rote memorization to ensure you’re fully prepared for real-world challenges.

What happens if I miss a module?

We’re committed to a comprehensive learning journey and expect all students to achieve the learning outcomes. Together, we will find a suitable solution being it the module being recorded or individual catch-ups. No one is left behind!

I am already Scrum Master of a team. Is this still for me?

Absolutely! Re-calibrate your knowledge, gain new perspectives and inspiration! A lot in this Scrum Master training is about facilitating, dealing with the team and supporting the Product Owner. If you want to grow in these areas, the training is definitely for you!
