The Course
This is a short primer that describes the Agile framework called Scrum. It is a simple visual course.
What you will learn
The course takes you through Scrum by showing that it is structured to keep things 'small'. At its end you will understand what is made, who makes it, and how it is made.
This course will give you a basic understanding of Scrum and enable you to talk about it using the correct language as per the Scrum guide.
Curriculum
Your instructor
I'm an Agilist. What does that mean ? It means that I want to minimise risk and I want to help others to minimise risk. I've worked in the fintech industry for twenty years as a software developer and manager before going through an Agile transformation. Since then I've been a Scrum master and for the last three years, an Agile coach. I'm honoured to say that I have also become a Certified Scrum Trainer (one of only about 200 in the world) with the Scrum Alliance, allowing me to spread my knowledge, skills and experience to others with certification courses.
Having previously worked in traditional workflows like Waterfall, I am able to sympathise with people's problems in that sphere and understand where Agility may help them. Having co-trained and worked with other great coaches has allowed me to understand the true path of Agility and where it can lead teams and individuals to where they want to go.
I've even tried to use these ideas in my personal life as I also write novels, short stories and have produced and directed short films.
I love interacting with anyone who has an interest in Agility, attending conferences and I founded the Surrey and Sussex Agile meetup group five years ago.
