Overview
The Advanced Certified Scrum Master (A-CSM) Training offered by LeanSys I.T. Solutions is designed to enhance your skills and capabilities as a Scrum Master. Our trainers, who have extensive industry experience in Agile transformation using Scrum, bring their real-time expertise into the training sessions. This ensures that you gain valuable insights into the Scrum Master role, including its intricacies, challenges, and effective remedies.
The A-CSM certification training focuses on equipping you with advanced concepts and techniques that will enable you to excel in your Scrum Master career. It goes beyond the basics of Scrum and delves into topics such as working with multiple Scrum teams, exploring other frameworks in addition to Scrum, implementing engineering practices, scaling Scrum methods, and applying Scrum in non-IT teams such as HR, IT, Infra, Facilities, and more. These advanced concepts prepare you to bring organizational agility and effectively tackle complex scenarios.
By completing the two-day A-CSM training course, you will be on the path to achieving the Advanced Certified Scrum Master certification from the Scrum Alliance®, a globally recognized and highly regarded certification.
Throughout the training, we focus on the following elements:
Practice-Based Learning: Emphasizing practical application and hands-on practice of advanced Scrum Master concepts. This approach allows you to develop a deeper understanding and gain practical experience in dealing with real-world scenarios.
Interactive Learning: Engaging in interactive sessions that foster discussion, collaboration, and knowledge sharing. This interactive approach promotes active learning and facilitates a deeper comprehension of the subject matter.
Post-Workshop Support: Providing continued support after the training through additional materials and resources. This support helps you reinforce your learning and apply the acquired knowledge effectively in your professional role.
Practical Scenario-Based Interview Questions: Exploring practical scenarios and interview questions relevant to the Scrum Master role. This prepares you for real-world situations and enhances your readiness for Scrum Master job interviews.
Scrum Implementation Case Studies: Examining case studies of Scrum implementation in non-IT-based products or teams. These case studies broaden your understanding of applying Scrum in diverse contexts and help you develop a comprehensive perspective on its implementation.
