I had a wonderful experience with Coach Victor Bonacci. He was incredibly detailed and communicative, asking insightful questions throughout the session. The class was well-planned, and he provided a wealth of information for future development. I truly appreciated his willingness to guide me, and he didn’t cancel the class even though I was the only student. It’s clear that he’s dedicated to helping his students succeed. Thank you, Coach Victor, for such a valuable experience!

Instructor had a great pace for the class, explained information well and encouraged engagement.

I highly recommend the Advanced Certified Scrum Master (A-CSM) course for anyone looking to deepen their Agile expertise and enhance their impact as a Scrum Master. The instructor, Vic, was phenomenal, bringing an incredible depth of knowledge to every session. They used real-world examples that made complex concepts clear and relatable, offering practical insights on handling team dynamics, facilitating difficult conversations, and scaling Agile practices. The hands-on activities, break out sessions and interactive discussions were incredibly engaging and helped solidify key concepts. I left the course with a greater confidence in my ability to guide teams, improve Agile processes, and foster a high-performing environment.

Great class for anyone who wants to enhance their role as scrum master. Highly recommend! Lots of good information and real-life, relatable examplese.

Excellent course. The instructor's bread of Agile knowledge, along with his easy going, matter-of-fact instruction style worked very well with the open communication/immersive class format. Less of a structured, step-by-step class and more of a guided ideas-sharing session for experienced Scrum Masters, I found this to be a highly valuable experience as a Scrum Master on a path towards mastery versus learning the ropes.

Vic was very supportive, responsive and informative. All around great course and update of Scrum principles

My instructor had excellent command of the subject matter, provided extra material/tips, and was very engaging.

Vic was very organized and offered great insights from his experience. He was engaging and engaged the class members.

Class setting was very intimate, allowing time for all participants to share their experiences with scrum and brainstorm through some challenges shared throughout the class.
