Agile, Scrum and Kanban For Teams

Course Summary

The Agile, Scrum and Kanban for Teams is a hands-on instructor-led training workshop designed to be delivered to your entire Scrum Team at once. This includes the three Scrum Roles: the Development Whole Team, the Product Owner and the Scrum Master.

The benefits of the team training approach is that it creates team alignment, improves productivity and predictability, and fosters team spirit and collaboration. The team uses their own work in the course exercises, and is able to discuss specific challenges unique to the team. It also serves to quickly get teams up and running with Agile and Scrum.
