This free self-paced online course (SPOC) is designed to help you get a better understanding of the Scrum Framework as a whole and its Roles, Events, and Artifacts. But before we go there, we actually take a step back and teach you about the context of agile i.e. what agile really means and why it is so important.

What you will get in this course:

  • Understand what Agile really means
  • Establish a shared understanding of Scrum as a framework
  • Create alignment and apply Scrum the right way
