    Agile Scrum Team Training Course

    By the end of this course, you will understand Agile software development so thoroughly that you’ll be able to be an effective leader or member of a great software product development team. The course is designed for entire product/project delivery teams, not only Scrum Masters, as well as anyone likely to work with or on an agile team. It is ideal for teams or organizations new to Agile who need practical and memorable instruction. Agile... Scrum... MVP... DevOps... TDD... Extreme programming... Those words/acronyms that you see in many articles or hear around you. Do you know what they mean? Why should you understand them? In an increasingly competitive context characterized by changing needs (new services, new functionalities...), Agile methods are revolutionizing project management and providing clear answers to current challenges. They are increasingly used and people capable of evolving, optimizing or deploying an agile framework are in high demand today. There is much confusion about the term “developer” and “development team” from Scrum in the software development industry. Many people still think that the Scrum Developer == Programmer. In Scrum, the term developer equates to a Development team member. So from this point forward we will refer the developer as the development team member. This training will give you all the knowledge you need to master Scrum with a double objective at the end of the training: Make you a fully operational Scrum team member Prepare yourself in the best conditions to take the Professional Scrum Developer (PSD) certification of Scrum org. The PSD certification is highly valued on the job market and the asset is a guarantee of being able to position you more easily on positions that evolve in an agile context.

    Agile Retrospective Deep Dive

    The ultimate course for mastering Agile's toughest and most important meeting. More than 3 hours of content! With more organizations choosing agile methodologies to deliver software, more teams are picking the practice of agile retrospectives. You may be working on one of these teams already and regularly agile retrospectives to seek continuous improvement; if not, your team may find the agile practice beneficial to your work. This course is intended as an aid to running more effective retrospectives and to complement existing books & trainings on retrospectives. It is important to use a good variety of activities to make an engaging retrospective, but this course intentionally focuses less on listing activities in favor of addressing the practical challenges you are likely to encounter when running retrospectives. The contents of this course reflect advice I have been asked for time and again by people interested in retrospective practice. Some questions came from newcomers to the agile retrospective practice, had problems making retrospectives useful, while other questions came from retrospective keen to hear alternative approaches to common problems. This course also contains advice on working with seasoned agile teams, and explores ways of changing the retrospective practice to be even more engaging and insightful.

    How to Combine Design Thinking, Lean and Agile?

    By the end of the course, you will be able to find an approach that gets your team building the right thing, and building the thing right. Highly touted methodologies, such as Agile, Lean, and Design Thinking, leave many organizations bamboozled by an unprecedented array of processes, tools, and methods for digital product development. Many teams meet their peril trying to make sense of these options. How do the methods fit together to achieve the right outcome? What’s the best approach for your circumstances? Blindly applying any model, framework, or method seldom delivers the desired result. Agile began as a better answer for delivering software. Lean focuses on product success. And Design Thinking is an approach for exploring opportunities and problems to solve.
