About this course

A focused two-day course that prepares you for the Professional Scrum Master I assessment. You will work through Scrum theory, the Scrum values, the accountabilities of the Scrum Team, the events and the artefacts, always tying the rules back to why they exist.

Discussion, exercises and practice questions help you read the Scrum Guide with confidence and avoid common traps. You receive an Alalamia certificate of attendance; the assessment is taken separately, and its fee is paid to the exam provider.
