ABC Scrum Master Overview
Scrum is a framework for developing, delivering and sustaining complex products through effective team collaboration.
A Scrum Master is responsible for promoting and supporting Scrum – as defined in The Scrum Guide – by helping everyone understand Scrum theory, practices, rules and values.
Our two-day course – delivered by APMG and Agile Business Consortium accredited providers – addresses the principles and theory underpinning the Scrum framework, and the role of the Scrum Master.
Training and certification are based on The Scrum Guide. Developed by Scrum creators Ken Schwaber and Jeff Sutherland, it contains the definition of Scrum, consisting of Scrum roles, events, artefacts, and the rules that bind them together.
Courses offer a combination of instruction and team-based exercises, purposefully designed to be less IT- and more wide business-focused.
