GERMANTOWN, Tenn. — The Braintrust Consulting Group will offer Certified ScrumMaster (CSM) and Certified Scrum Product Owner (CSPO) training classes May 13-16 at the Germantown location of the Holiday Inn Express.
Scrum is a simple yet powerful set of principles and practices that help teams deliver products in short cycles, enabling fast feedback, continual improvement and rapid adaptation to change. As the leading Agile development framework, Scrum has predominantly been used for software development, but it is also proving to be effective in other efforts.
The Certified ScrumMaster (May 13-14) class is a two-day immersion into the world of Scrum. This class is ideal for IT professionals (architects, BAs, DBAs, developers, testers, etc.), IT leadership (managers/directors/VPs/CIOs/CTOs) and project managers. Members of the Project Management Institute (PMI) will earn 14 Professional Development Units (PDUs) toward maintaining their existing credentials by attending this class.
