Learn how to use Scrum optimally

Scrum has become mainstream in recent years. It is also used more and more outside of IT, such as in marketing teams. However, Scum is not without its pitfalls and most Scrum implementations can be improved considerably. Participants for whom Scrum is new will learn how to apply it well. The training helps enormously to avoid common pitfalls. But also participants who have practiced Scrum for years learn much about how to get their team and organization involved in further improvements.

The training is a Scrum project itself

The training courses are organized as Scrum projects. Together with the participants, a Product Backlog is made for the training based on questions and learning goals of participants. The two days of the training are two sprints. The second day starts with the joint planning of the second sprint, where new questions can be added to the backlog and the priorities are revised. This way, you experience how value is delivered with Scrum in an iterative way. The course optimally matches the specific questions and learning objectives of the participants. It is of course ensured that all “mandatory” topics are always covered.

Very interactive

The trainings are very interactive with many exercises that are performed in small groups. There are also lively presentations by the trainer. The slides are shared by email after the training. As a participant you learn a lot in a fun way and the two days fly by.

CSPO and CSM trainings

There are two different courses: the Certified Scrum Product Owner (CSPO) and the Certified Scrum Master (CSM) course. Both courses focus on how Scrum can be used as effectively as possible.

Marco's charisma and passion is contagious, his confidence is outstanding and is clear that the reason is he deeply believes and practices what he preaches. It is eye-opening how by showing the silliness of common used anti-patterns you can validate how wasteful they are, Marco has an amazing gift that allows him to resonate with his team on a more profound level than technical or intellectual, he connects instantly and promotes a winning attitude that doesn't go away.

I completed CSM training with Marco and thoroughly enjoyed the 2 day course. I really enjoyed how the course was so interactive and the exercises Marco used to demonstrate the learning points from various topics. Marco was approachable, engaging and extremely knowledgeable. And I passed my exam on the first attempt! Thanks Marco

Marco just hosted Certified ScrumMaster® training, and literally within 24 hours I was able to pass the Scrum Alliance's exam. He did an awesome job handling lots of diverse questions, challenges from the group and he kept the entire experience lively and incredibly interesting. Great job, Marco!

Just completed CSM training with Marco, it was an incredibly active, fun and informative 2 days. The training was intensive but largely interactive keeping it interesting and engaging. Thanks to Marco I now feel more confident about the success of adopting Scrum practices within my organisation.

Marco's 2 days CSM (Certified Scrum Master) course is simply the best I've attended yet, for few reasons: - Marco is engaging from the first minute to the last, you won't fall asleep and you won't need coffee. - He's an expert, you will learn and feel confident to apply the skills by the end of his course. - His course is delivered in the most effective possible way, I won't ruin the surprise: you'll have to attend. Let's just say he walks the talk and 'applied' Scrum on improving his own course!

I had the opportunity to be trained by Marco during a 2-day Agile course. Marco is a wonderful trainer, he is efficient, involved and allowed all of us to incorporate our different backgrounds to the experience. Marco took the time to give me valuable career advice which I will now take forward. It is rare to meet an individual that will give you the right advise with exclusively your interest at heart.
