Nurturing Self-Organising Teams in the Heart of Scrum

Throughout our Certified ScrumMaster (CSM) course we emphasise on participants gaining a deep understanding of the principles behind shaping team identity and fostering high efficiency.

Being a ScrumMaster entails more than just orchestrating a couple of meetings. Our Certified ScrumMaster training is dedicated to equipping you with the comprehensive skills required to excel as an exceptional Scrum Master.

Some individuals debate the necessity of a Scrum Master's role, often stemming from a limited perspective confined to administrative tasks like managing Outlook and Jira. Such responsibilities can be undertaken by anyone.

In our view, Scrum Masters are the vanguards of transformative change, serving as catalysts at the forefront of progress. Through our training, we are committed to nurturing this transformative prowess within you. Our focus extends beyond mere certification test success. Our aim is to empower you to return to your team as a dynamic change agent, poised to contribute significant value to your organization. You can confidently make this commitment to your manager on our behalf.

What you gain from the CSM Course:

A fundamental understanding of the values, principles and practices of Lean, Agile and Scrum
Understanding of how to act as ScrumMaster for one or more self-organising teams
Understanding of how to support the collaboration with the Product Owner and the rest of the organisation
Eligibility to take a Certified ScrumMaster evaluation and become a Certified ScrumMaster (CSM)
14 PDUs from the PMI and 14 Scrum Education Units

Whether you work with software or physical product development our Scrum courses are designed to support you in working smarter – and becoming smarter.

We put a lot of effort into making sure the teaching is being related to the your application of agile principles in their own organisation.

We don’t put a lot of effort into making fancy PowerPoint decks. In fact we don’t use PowerPoint at all.

At the commencement of the training, we gauge the collective knowledge and experiences of the participants, as well as their learning objectives. This forms the foundation for customizing the content and structure of the training.

Our approach draws from the principles of 'Training from the Back of the Room' (TBR), enhanced by graphical facilitation. Central to the training is a dynamic Scrum simulation that orchestrates the integration of all acquired knowledge.

To facilitate your engagement, a comprehensive workbook will be furnished at the outset of the training. Following the training, you will receive photographs of the flip charts, accompanied by supplementary materials.

The certification test will be individually administered subsequent to the training.

This training transcends domains, catering to professionals in software and physical product development alike. Whether you are a team member or practicing Scrum Master, a seasoned practitioner or a novice embarking on your agile journey, our Certified ScrumMaster course equips you to work smarter and cultivate enduring intelligence.

Commitment

Training hours are 9:00 to 17:00 CET each day, and this training requires your full attention, as it heavily relies on group work, interaction, and active participation. Therefore, we anticipate that you have cleared your schedule for the entire duration of the training and that you restrict your emailing, calling, and texting activities to the designated breaks.

We anticipate that you will have completed the necessary preparations before the commencement of the training. These preparations typically entail approximately an hour of dedicated time, and the specific details will be outlined in the confirmation email upon your registration.

Great Scrum Master training which is look forward to applying to my team

Bent provided a fantastic scrum master training

Bent was great at facilitating and managed to keep me engaged throughout the two long course days. I liked the emphasis on the ideologies behind SCRUM and the very practical exercises. It made it easier for me to understand and remember the principles of SCRUM. I would say that you will gain the most from this course if you already have some experiences with working with SCRUM within your organization.

the fact that I could take the training physically which I mostly preferred gave me a very good feeling. I went into the training with so much much doubt about the whole concept of Scrum. By the time I left, I felt satisfied because I understood and even applied some theoretical examples of scrum. Now I am ready to take and pass the Scrum Exam.

Bent is an excellent trainer who helped me understand the scrum framework and Agile Manifesto

The Scrum Master course I participated was performed by Bent Myllerup (Better Change). The course material was clear and understandable. Provided charts and live experiments performed during the course made it clear how an empirical process work in practice. As part of course all attenders participated Lego city development Scrum process. Where we executed 2 sprints with all events and artifacts in place.

Enjoyed the learning experience

Great learning experience, motivated and knowledgeable trainer - thank you Bent!

The course avoided all the usual pitfalls

Highly engaging course, with no dull Powerpoint presentations. Bent did a really great job for making people participate in discussing the topic(s), and also making it understandable for both people with no and some experience in SCRUM.Highly recommendable!
