Have you looked into Scrum, read an article or book on the subject? Do you have the feeling that one or two jigsaw pieces are missing in your understanding of the subject? Are you perhaps already working with a Scrum team, but feel that you are not really making any progress? Do you want to understand the background and principles of Scrum? Do you want to know what it feels like to be part of a Scrum team? Do you want to learn how ScrumMasters and coaches handle difficult situations?

The trainers Andreas Schliep und Peter Beck will take you through the ups and downs of the Scrum framework. Experience two exciting and informative days, after which many aspects will be clearer. Prepare yourself to lead your team to success as a Scrummaster.
