    Scrum Theory and Empiricism

    Skills covered in the CSM course start with the empirical foundation of Scrum: the three pillars of transparency, inspection and adaptation, why Scrum thrives in complex work, and how the Agile Manifesto underpins the framework.

    Living the Five Scrum Values

    Apply commitment, focus, openness, respect and courage to build the trust and psychological safety that make Scrum teams effective, and learn how the Scrum Master models these values day to day.

    Facilitating the Five Scrum Events

    Plan and facilitate the Sprint, Sprint Planning, Daily Scrum, Sprint Review and Sprint Retrospective within their timeboxes, keeping each event purposeful, productive and focused on the Sprint Goal.

    Managing the Three Scrum Artifacts

    Work with the Product Backlog, Sprint Backlog and Increment, and apply their commitments, the Product Goal, the Sprint Goal and the Definition of Done, to create transparency and drive quality.

    The Scrum Master as Servant Leader

    Serve the Scrum Team, the Product Owner and the wider organization through coaching, facilitation, impediment removal and support for empirical, agile ways of working.
