Course Description
Let's get rid of the fluff and focus on reality. That's what this course is all about: getting more stuff done in less time.
This course focuses on establishing Scrum practices in a real-world environment. In this course, you will learn
All about Scrum
Scrum framework: iterations, increments, backlogs, user stories, and velocity
Scrum Framework: Sprints, Ceremonies, Artifacts, and Business Value
Working as the Product Owner
Serving as the ScrumMaster
Leading as a Development Team Member

Everything you ever needed to know about Scrum
Scrum is an easy and direct way to manage projects. Still, there are some specific rules to perfecting Scrum and getting things done without overworking the team and overwhelming your stakeholders.
In this course, I'll walk you through how I've implemented and consulted on Scrum projects and how you can avoid the pitfalls, risks, and objections before your projects begin. Then, I'll discuss the mechanics of Scrum and how you can start today creating a Scrum framework with the best agile practices to find success and a faster project return on investment.
In this course, I'll help you and your team create a strong foundation of Scrum and the rules you'll need to follow and implement. Next, I'll walk you through the entire Scrum workflow, starting with the product requirements and prioritizing the business value in the product backlog. And then, we'll move through a sprint: sprint planning to the sprint retrospective.
This course is ideal for the three roles in any Scrum endeavor: the product owner, the development team, and the ScrumMaster. Each of these roles has different responsibilities throughout the sprint and the project – but they all work together to get things done, help one another, and deliver value quickly to customers.
This is not a long Scrum course but a precise one. I know your time is valuable - so I've cut out the fluff and focused on the business values. This course is direct, easy to comprehend, and will help you introduce, implement, and improve your Scrum practices.

The Course explains a lot of queries that I had about Agile methodology, I have found it to be very detailed and excellent for people who want to know about Agile and Scrum Methodologies of delivery.

This is very good introductory course for individuals who are new to Scrum. However, as Agile and Scrum methodologies have been used for years now, I was hoping to get more in-depth information on the common challenges that Scrum teams face in environments where multiple teams and dependencies are involved.

So far, it's a good match for all required details, yet I would have loved to face a small Q&A experience at the end of each section conclusion to keep me going with my notes and added information

Some of the videos seem like they are cutting off a little early. Instructor is clear and easy to understand. Good information and I feel like I am understanding what I need to know.
By Rashmi Thakur on 7/17/2024
very well explained, though we know most of the things while working in Projects, there were certain useful pointers given which was not shared by anyone earlier.
By Eley on 2/9/2024
I like the structure here's what we're going to talk about, here's the content, and finally this is what we just talked about. The explanations surrounding the talking points were succinct yet meaningful. It did not feel like Joseph was rambling. Well done!
By Christine Carver on 12/3/2023
I thoroughly enjoyed your course and your teaching style. I was interested in learning more about Scrum and found this to be a perfect fit for what I was looking for. You taught me the basics and then built the rest of the course by referring to and repeating the concepts with more and more detail. Thank you for the very positive experience!
By Alessio on 9/11/2023
The course overall was good and covers the main things to know as a Scrum Master. However, I don't think it's well structured as it jumps from one thing to another without going into too much detail.
By Gerardo Adán Romero Huerta on 7/20/2023
Muy entendible y clara la información que presenta el Master Joseph Phillips. Agradecido como siempre por su gran contribución a la Gestión de Projectos.

This course has covered the key points of implementing Scrum in work environment. This is a great course for general understanding of Scrum at real world in theory. Do not depend on so much for passing the SM or the PO exams. Content delivery of the course is engaging. Recommended.
