Course Description
Welcome to the course on The Scrum Development Process. This is the third course of a series of eight that will form the Agile Project Management - The PMI-ACP (Agile Certified Practitioner) Certification Program.Who is your instructor?
An overview of the Scrum development process.
Scrum is one of the most popular agile methodologies to date, with tools and techniques applicable to more than just software development projects.
This course will assist prospective Scrum masters, product owners, and team members with the understanding of core Scrum practices. This includes an outline of the roles and responsibilities of members of the Scrum team, the importance of good communication, and the role of project stakeholders.
The course divides the Scrum development process into three major phases: pre-game, game, and post-game. It describes the activities performed in each phase, but particularly examines the activities and tools of the game phase.
Scrum basics covered include the use of product and sprint backlogs, the use of iterative development in the form of sprints, performing daily stand-up meetings, the use of sprint reviews and retrospectives, and using Scrum task boards and burn-down charts for monitoring and reporting project progress.

This course is excellent. It is very comprehensive and covers everything you need to know to pass the PMI-ACP exam. The instructor is very knowledgeable and explains things clearly. I would highly recommend this course to anyone wanting to get certified.

The material is OK, but it´s very redundant.
By Anil Bharadwaj Chivukula on 10/11/2020
The course is very useful for aspiring managers. The instructor is explaining each and every topic clearly. I recommend this course for the mid-level professionals.

This is a very good course and I am excited to hear more
By Stefan Giconi on 2/18/2019
It's a good match, but so far everything has been pretty boilerplate.
By Dunja Babali on 12/20/2017
This is a great starter course. I purchased it a while ago when I wasn't sure yet what kind of business to start. Once I had a business idea I went back to it and it truly covers so much and helps you think about many aspects of starting your own business in a very informative and down to the point way. I will certainly refer back to this and go over some of the chapters again.

An interesting and useful approach to Scrum. I work in operations management but I had some training in project management. This course is definitely bringing valuable information and totally meets my expectations. Happy to see that online learning can indeed help.
