What will you learn?

Our Certified Scrum Professional - Scrum Master course was designed by the trainers who wrote the certification standard (Jason Tanner and Carlton Nettleton). The course is delivered in a different way to the CSM and A-CSM with a combination of self paced learning videos, workbooks and instructor led discussions, and was designed using three core principles:
  • Our program would be the most rigorous and complete of its kind. There are no shortcuts to mastering this material.
  • We believe you should be in control of pace and direction of your learning journey. You decide what you learn, when.
  • Direct instructor interaction is essential to the process. That’s why we provide personalised feedback and advice as you advance through the course.
If you have decided to become a Certified Scrum Professional, you are serious about your career. This program is designed for you. The structure of the course is 13 on demand learning modules that will take around 90 mins each. Within each, there are short videos (10-15 mins max), exercises and application of the learning through case studies and quizzes, as well as challenges where you put something into practice back in the workplace. As your instructor Sam Bowtell, CST, will support you through the online modules, marking assessments against the rubric provided. There will also be 4 virtual coaching sessions, which could be 1-1 with Sam, or with a small group depending on how many other people register at the same time. The discussion can be on any topic that people bring to the table to help them learn and grow in their roles. You get on-demand access for 12 months to our learning platform, with regular feedback and advice from Sam. There are 16 video lessons from deeply experienced Scrum Trainers (Jason Tanner and Carlton Nettleton), 14+ downloadable workbooks, 12+ facilitation tools, and monthly instructor-led virtual classroom sessions (with Sam). FAQs: Will this program help my career? YES! For the first time, you can now receive your CSP-SM training completely online in a guided mentoring program designed by Certified Scrum Trainers (CST) specifically for Scrum Masters looking to achieve a deeper understanding of how product management intersects with Scrum and Agile.
This program offers CSP-SM students fast, condensed lessons combined with on-the-job application of key concepts for immediate effect. How much time do I need? With our CSP-SM program, all you need are a few spare hours a week to complete one or more topics. Our Certified Scrum Professional Scrum Master program is comprised of 16 online courses, which include short lectures, engaging exercises, and useful step-by-step techniques to test out with your team. What is the format of the course? Most online training is boring and prone to distraction. Too many instructors talk for far too long about topics and theories not relevant for real world application. With our CSP-SM program, all our lectures are crisp (no more than fifteen minutes) and are combined with practical, on-the-job exercises so you can immediately put into practice what you have learned. What qualifications do I need? We welcome everybody to start the program. However, you will need to meet certain criteria to receive your CSP-SM certification:
  • A current Advanced Certified ScrumMaster® certification from the Scrum Alliance®.
  • 2 years of experience as a ScrumMaster within the last 5 years.
  • Attend at least four instructor-led virtual classroom sessions (you are welcome to attend more of course!).
  • Complete all the on-line modules, quizzes and assignments.
  • Bring a positive attitude and desire to make a real impact along with your team.
