Applying Professional Scrum (APS) is a hands-on, activity-based course in which students experience how Professional Scrum and the Scrum framework improve their ability to deliver value compared to traditional methods. Scrum provides a better way of working that highlights the use of experimentation, incremental delivery of customer value, frequent feedback loops, and the fostering of strong team dynamics.

The course provides an active learning environment for students to engage in discussion, team-based exercises, and individual reflection. During the course, students work in Scrum Teams over a series of Sprints to learn Scrum while using Scrum.


A PROFESSIONAL SCRUM TRAINING COURSE CREATED BY KEN SCHWABER AND SCRUM.ORG

Course Overview

 Students experience new, agile ways of working that enable teams to deliver more value, satisfy stakeholders, and work better together. Students work together as a team in a series of Sprints to solve complex problems, facing similar challenges that they face outside of class and learning how to use Scrum to address them. These Sprints enable students to see the practical application of Scrum and to understand the value of an Agile mindset.

Students not only learn Scrum; they learn how to use Scrum well.

Who should attend?

The Applying Professional Scrum course is the perfect introduction, reboot, or refresher to Scrum. It is excellent training for organizations, teams, and individuals wanting to experience Scrum's benefits or those interested in continuing their learning with more advanced training.

• Professionals who are part of a team that currently uses Scrum but desire a refresher so that they get the most out of their use of Scrum.

• Professionals who are joining a team that currently uses Scrum.

• Professionals who don’t use Scrum directly but want to learn how to work with colleagues who use Scrum.

• Professionals that are investigating to see if Scrum makes sense for them and their colleagues.

• Professionals that are part of an organization that intends to use Scrum in the near future.

• Teams who are learning to use Scrum together in their organizations

The course also provides the foundational Scrum knowledge needed for those wishing to continue their education with role-focused (Scrum Master, Product Owner, Developer, Leader) training classes. APS is not recommended for advanced Scrum professionals.

Designed to be domain-agnostic, the class conveys the use of Scrum in any domain or industry with complex problems to solve. Trainers typically have experience in multiple industries and may be able to tailor the course to the needs of your team. Students and teams building software products may want to consider our domain-specific course: Applying Professional Scrum for Software Development.
