Scrum Master Certification Training

Scrum Master certification is a credential that shows you understand the Scrum framework and can apply it as a Scrum Master. It is awarded by Scrum certification bodies after you pass their exam. The best-known options are Scrum.org's Professional Scrum Master I (PSM I) and Scrum Alliance's Certified ScrumMaster (CSM). This CertOcean course teaches the Scrum knowledge both are based on.

Certified Scrum Masters work as Scrum Masters, agile coaches, agile project managers and delivery leads. A Scrum Master helps an organization change the way it works, and as more organizations adopt agile to compete in fast-moving markets, they need people who can lead that change.

Scrum is used by organizations of every size, from startups to global enterprises in software, finance, telecom, automotive, media and government. Any team that builds complex products in short cycles can benefit from Scrum.

A Scrum Master helps the Scrum team and the wider organization use Scrum well. Their main focus areas are:

• Systems: finding and fixing organizational issues that stop the team from becoming self-managing
• Practices: introducing practices that help the team reach its full potential
• Coaching the Developers in Scrum and agile ways of working
