Course Methodology

- Students are encouraged to work through the concepts rather than just listen to them—this provides better internalisation and retention.
- Students work through a case study to simulate product development using the Scrum Framework.
Who should attend
This certification is appropriate for anyone who is interested in working as a Scrum Master or for someone who is already a Scrum master in his organisation. Scrum Master is an important role in any Scrum team and need not be a technology expert to be effective.
Moreover, although Scrum is popular in the IT industry, it can be used effectively across different industries. The SBOK® Guide, on which the SMC course is based on, can be used as an effective guide for implementation.
