Word class teams improve & learn with our online courses:

Taking something complex and making it so simple is genius. I have no PM experience but have management experience so was asked to lead a project. After completing your free fundamentals course I went to the Scrum.org open test and scored 100% in under 5mins! (Its a 30min test)
I then went to my stakeholders and told them to pause the project work until we had a shared understanding of »Product Goal«, »Working Agreements« and »Definition of Done«.
They appreciated the clarity and asked me to be Scrum Master for every internal project we run.
