What it covers…
The Growing Agile Coaches programme is based on Scrum Alliance’s Advanced Certified ScrumMaster® certification. Participants of the programme will have, via validation calls, the option of upgrading their learning to include the A-CSM.
The choice is left to the learner, with or without certification, the same high-quality, knowledge and insight are available.
Lean, Agile & Scrum
Exploring the origins of Scrum and Agile, why they were created and the theory underpinning much of the Agile thinking today.
Facilitation & Training
This section is focused on answering questions like “what is facilitation?” and “how do I tackle conflict in meetings?”.
Coaching
Coaching is a core part of being a scrum master or Agile coach, and here we introduce you to the discipline.
Self-Management & Team Dynamics
We look for self-management in our teams, this section delves into what we mean by that and how we set teams up to achieve it.
Definition of Done & Development Practices
Definition of Done – much-maligned and misunderstood in the Agile world, in this section we explore how it and development practices help the teams we work with,
Service to the Product Owner
Product goals, product visions, and product backlogs. How do we support our Product Owners in creating and using these successfully?
Scaling Scrum
In this section, we explore what scaling Scrum is, when to do it, the benefits and disadvantages, and how we can go about it.
Organisation Change
Agile often requires organisations to change their policies and procedures, in this section, we examine how to support and guide these changes.
