Hands-on with the Scrum framework

You learn to apply Scrum effectively. You make the team energetic, self-organizing, and productive as a mentor, coach, or facilitator. As a Scrum Master, you ensure that multidisciplinary teams work together effectively, even if they are not in the same office.

Interactive course with room for practice

The Scrum Master course consists of 30% theory and 70% practice. The training contains much practice because Scrum is simple but not easy. In small groups, you practice the theory with real-life cases. During the Scrum Master course, there is sufficient space to discuss your practical experience and issues.

Ask our experienced trainers

The training takes two days. After participating, you will receive a certificate from Scrum Academy. You will meet experienced trainers who ensure you want to get started full of energy after the Scrum Master training!

The complete Scrum framework

In our course, you will develop the skills and Agile mindset to apply Scrum. This gives you all the knowledge to obtain an official Professional Scrum Master 1 (PSM1) certification.
Get a deep understanding of the purpose and meaning of all parts of the Scrum framework. This enables you to use the framework to suit your organization. We provide practical methods and techniques to get started in practice with confidence and energy.

Certification Professional Scrum Master PSM I

After the Scrum Master training, you will receive a certificate of participation from Scrum Academy. To certify as a Scrum Master, you can do so through the PSM I certification at Scrum.org. This certification is not included in the price, but we can arrange it for you. This allows us to keep our pricing competitive. If you wish, you can easily order it via the registration form. We will then arrange the rest and settle it with the invoice. Easy!

Then take a look at our Scrum Master II training. In this course, you learn to alternate energetic formats so everyone stays focused, even online. You know exactly which tools you use and at what time. Both remotely and in the office. You will go through the Sprint planning, retrospective, and sprint review. Learn how you can get the most out of these Scrum events online.

Hele fijne scrummastertraining gevolgd. Steile leercurve, waarbij theorie en (eigen) praktijk goed in balans waren. Aanrader!

Een geweldige ervaring gehad bij de Agile Coach training van Scrum Academy! De training was niet alleen ontzettend leerzaam en interessant, maar ook erg leuk en interactief. De trainer begreep de rol van Agile Coach als geen ander en wist op een prettige manier zowel de theorie als de praktijk tot leven te brengen. Met veel ruimte voor vragen en praktijkoefeningen kon je de opgedane kennis direct toepassen. Het was een gezellige en tegelijkertijd zeer educatieve training. Echt een aanrader voor iedereen die zich wil ontwikkelen als Agile Coach!

Ik heb de training 'Agile Coach 1' gevolgd en die was boven verwachting leuk. Niet alleen omdat ik het ontdekt dat agile coaching zoveel facetten bevat (waar ik heel blij van wordt), maar ook omdat de leraar/ coach Roy echt heel goed was. Ik heb tientallen cursussen en training gevolgd, maar deze is een van de beste! Raad dit zeker aan als je agile coach wilt worden. Wel handig als je goeie kennis of ervaring hebt met agile en/ of scrum.

Erg tevreden over de Product Owner II Training! Goede trainer met duidelijke uitleg aan de hand van grote flip-overs. Fijne balans tussen theorie, eigen casussen en reflectie.
