OCTOBER 2019 WAGILE SCRUM WORKSHOP
Join us for an our Scrum in One Day Workshop, an interactive workshop aimed at the Agile mindset. Whether you are actively involved in Agile or just starting to consider it, this workshop will give you tools that you will need. Many organizations still require reporting, but how do you do that in a Scrum environment? How do you know you are done and ready for release? We’ll help you answer these questions and many others.
Breakfast and lunch will be provided.
PROGRAM DESCRIPTION
Scrum in 1 Day is a unique training program. In just 8 hours, you will learn to:
- Plan with your first project with agility
- Change to an agile mindset
- Groom your initial backlog
- Successfully organize and execute your first sprint
- Determine when and how to release your application
- Remain agile yet status report waterfall (to management and your PMO)
Most importantly, everyone on the team understands how to develop applications with agility, even if the rest of the organization remains unchanged
