PSF: Professional Scrum Foundation
WHAT YOU WILL LEARN
Scrum Teams succeed best with a solid
foundation and this two-day course prepares individuals or teams to begin
effectively using Scrum immediately. The Scrum framework, mechanics, and roles
of Scrum are emphasized with a focus on practical application.
Common missteps in the adoption of Scrum
have been seen over and over again across industries, companies, and teams.
Rather than coaching teams back from a poorly functioning Scrum implementation,
PSF exposes these common missteps, increases the awareness of the associated
symptoms, and provides prescriptive guidance to avoid going off track.
Professional Scrum Foundations (PSF) is the
perfect introduction to Scrum for anyone new to the framework. Whether your
team needs a flawless Scrum launch or needs to reboot a struggling Scrum
implementation, this class lays the foundation for an effective Scrum team.
This course also provides the foundation of knowledge needed for role-focused
training for Product Owners, Scrum Masters and Developers.
AUDIENCE
The Professional Scrum
Foundations course is appropriate for anyone working on or with a Scrum Team.
The course is especially well suited to companies or teams investigating Scrum,
those who are currently struggling with Scrum, or those beginning to utilize
Scrum in their development environment.
But the PSF course isn't for everyone.
Well-functioning Scrum teams looking for assistance with advanced topics like
Scaling Scrum or implementing a rigorous ROI framework will not receive as much
benefit from this course. Teams looking to explore more advanced Scrum topics
such as Scaling Scrum or Release Planning should consider the Professional
Scrum Master program.
PSF is most effective as a training event
for a dedicated team.
PREREQUISITES
Course Prerequisites and Expectations of
Students
Attendees of a Professional Scrum
Foundation course will be able to make the most of their experience if they:
- Have read the Scrum Guide (required).
- Have been on or closely involved with a project that builds or enhances a product.
- Want to know more about how Scrum works, how to use it, and how it could help their team.
METHODOLOGY
This program will be conducted with interactive
lectures, PowerPoint presentations, discussions, practical exercises and hands-on website
development.
COURSE OBJECTIVES
Upon completion of this program,
participants should be able to :
- Use Scrum to build complex products, particularly software.
Modules
Students dive into the Scrum software development framework including, roles and responsibilities, principles, artifacts, events and time boxes, and rules and customs.
This module discusses the current state of the software industry and Scrum’s role within it. Topics include the origins of Scrum, misconceptions of the framework, the value that Scrum provides, and an exploration of self-organization as a power tool for increasing productivity.
Learn practical techniques of planning releases, managing Product Backlogs, keeping Sprints on track, and maintaining healthy team behaviors. Although many effective techniques exist for expressing requirements, this module equips teams to discover, express, and decompose requirements as Backlog Items using proven techniques.
This module focuses on common missteps teams make when adopting Scrum and strategies to avoid them. In addition to discussing typical patterns/anti-patterns in this module, class attendees practice some of the more courageous conversations that commonly occur.
Following an excellent training event, Teams often struggle implementing what seemed so reasonable just a few days ago. This discussion helps attendees plan and prepare to actually be effective with Scrum immediately, marking the PSF as the true catalyst for change and increasing agility within your organization.
Unlike other Scrum certifications that require only class attendance, Scrum.org certification requires a minimum score on a rigorous assessment. The Professional Scrum Foundations course has one associated assessment: PSM I
