What you are going to learn

Start your Agile journey

Scrum is rapidly becoming the global tool of choice, when companies building digital products need a new way of working.

If you work with digital products as a manager, stakeholder, Scrum team member, customer or supplier, you will eventually come into contact with Scrum and need to understand how it works.

Scrum is built to solve the challenges that come with building complex solutions. If you are starting on the Agile journey, this course is a good first step.

Who will benefit most from this course?

  • People with limited or no experience and knowledge of Scrum, or who want to find out if Scrum and Agile can open new perspectives for their work and career
  • People who need a brush-up on Scrum before starting work in a Scrum context
  • Managers and other stakeholders who need to factor Agile and Scrum into the way their organization works.

Please note:

The course is not meant for certification but to familiarize you with Scrum and enable you to work in a Scrum setting. While it may increase your ability to pass open Scrum assessments, it is not accredited by any certifying institution. See the Learning Objectives.

If you need an official certification, we recommend the PeopleCert Scrum master I (PCSM I) course here at the academy.
