I recently completed the A-CSM training with ScrumCenter Ltd, and the overall experience was top-notch! The extensive experience and exemplary coaching provided by Simon Roberts truly set this course apart. His unparalleled ability to build a team and facilitate has been a true eye-opener for me, revealing areas for improvement on my journey to excellence. I highly recommend ScrumCenter Ltd's entire portfolio of courses. As seasoned practitioners, they profoundly understand the current challenges organizations face in adopting and nurturing agility, extracting maximum business benefits from it. A truly outstanding experience!

I did the 3-day Scrum Master course with Simon Roberts; lots of interesting exercises and hypothetical situations considered. The certification test was quite easy after that.

We not only learnt the core of being a Scrum Master, but also additional techniques in the field of coaching and team facilitation that I found very useful. The trainer is very knowledgeable, adaptable and uses interactive training methods that are really effective.

I completed the Certified Scrum Master course accredited by Scrum Alliance delivered by an excellent trainer - Simon Roberts from ScrumCenter! It was 2 days of high-quality interactive instruction where Simon backed the theory with examples from his experience in the field. He also encouraged us (a very diverse group from 5 different countries) to share our experiences. Simon is a natural in setting delegates at ease from the start and getting us all to engage. I highly recommend Simon Roberts and ScrumCenter.

Firstly, our live-online Certified Scrum Product Owner course is interactive, engaging and fun. It’s designed using training from the back of the room techniques. As a result, it leverages the science behind how the human brain learns.

Secondly, people like you who attended our online CSPO found it highly valuable. Here are some quotes about our training:

Simon is an outstanding agile trainer and empathic agile coach. He has vast software development experience and is a fantastic story teller. Simon skilfully introduces agile concepts and practices and knows exactly how to bring his ideas across. What fascinates me about Simon is his ability to connect with people and get a detailed sense of their needs. He shares a wealth of experience, knowledge, techniques and approaches and sows seeds of insights and a deeper understanding of Agile and lean, that truly grow and transform the way one works and collaborates. Shortly said, if you really want to transform to agile, Simon is your man.” Anna

The agility with which the host adapted to our current situation (coronavirus) by setting up the online course was a really authentic example of how to (positively) react to change.” Henrik

Simon is like a deep lake of Agile knowledge and experience, and it was a pleasure to work with him.” Marcel

“Very insightful, filled with lots of experience and real-life situations” Dennis

Finally, after the course you can book a free follow up mentoring call with the trainer to help put your new learnings into practice!
