Agile & Scrum(SM-101)
Businesses today need professionals with sharp skills who are up-to-date with all the latest developments in their fields. Be it scrum master professionals or trained and certified project management professionals, the demand for experts who can help businesses achieve their strategic goals never go out of demand.
Scrum is the agile development process that allows teams to deliver usable software periodically throughout the life of the project, evolving with new requirements as the project proceeds. Even projects that have solid, well–defined project plans encounter some degree of change and waste. Shifting market conditions, budget cuts, staff restructuring, or any number of influences will disrupt the best plan while contributing to customer dissatisfaction and staff discouragement. Moreover, projects that begin with changing or unclear requirements make it difficult to even establish project expectations. This course is suitable for those practicing or looking to practice the art of the Scrum Master, but is highly valuable for anyone involved in Scrum (Managers, Team Members, Product Managers, etc.)
