This coaching program leads you to the Scrum Alliance Certificate “Advanced – Certified ScrumMaster” (A-CSM) and is about continuing your development as an Scrum Master.
About the program
Program learning components are based on Scrum Alliance defined learning objectives.
You start the program any time with your personal kick-off meeting to hit the road for your learning journey.
Participants learn on the given learning objectives in their own pace.
Participants apply their learnings directly into their day-to-day-work.
Each month we have a mentoring and coaching session to review and discuss learnings, insights, benefits, pitfalls, tipps, and tricks.
Participants benefit from the exchange and different views in the group.
