Course Description
Bootcamp | 14 hours | 1.4 CEUs | $1,495
In this two-day course, attendees will gain an understanding of the role of Scrum Master in a SAFe enterprise. Unlike traditional Scrum Master training that focuses on the fundamentals of team-level Scrum, the SAFe Scrum Master course explores the role of Scrum in the context of the entire enterprise, and prepares attendees to successfully plan and execute the Program Increment (PI), the primary enabler of alignment throughout all levels of a SAFe organization. This includes learning the key components of scaled Agile development, how Scrum is facilitated throughout the enterprise, and how to execute iteration planning. Attendees will also discover how to build high performing Agile teams by becoming servant leaders and coaches, and how to coach those teams to deliver the maximum business value that is achievable through SAFe. The SSM certification signifies that attendees are prepared to perform the role of Scrum Master in a SAFe environment, increasing their value to teams and organizations that are implementing SAFe.
AGC475 is the first course in the Scaled Agile Framework Professional Certificate. To complete the certificate students will also enroll in AGC480, & AGC490. Click on each course link for more details and to add to cart.
