SUMMARY:Certified ScrumMaster (CSM) - Seattle\, WA
DESCRIPTION:Why take this CSM course? \nThis class will include students from GRCC.\nBecause\, when it comes to Agile\, mindset (how you think) matters more than practices (what you do). And that means you want a world-class training environment and a top-quality experience from an exceptional instructor.

After all\, processes and tools can get you only so far.\nNow’s the time to ask yourself the tough questions: \n\n\nAm I satisfied to cobble together activities that seem like Scrum or am I ready to get serious about using the real thing?\n\n\nAm I ready to truly understand Agile—to put “whys before hows\,” and learn the underlying principles and values that drive success before getting into successful practices—or am I satisfied to just do Agile?\n\n\nAm I ready to hold real conversations with my managers and executives or am I satisfied to stick with superficial interactions?\n\n\nAm I ready to start measuring value delivered and stop measuring work output?\n\n\nAm I ready for a one-of-a-kind training experience that instills the confidence to engage successfully in Agile practices as soon as I get back to my team or am I satisfied to stick with the typical Agile training session? \n\n\nWith successful course completion\, you can choose to become a Certified ScrumMaster® by passing the short exam found on the Scrum Alliance website.
