Agile Ukraine conducts a half-day trainings on Scrum and Agile.
The training is called 'Scrum Initiation'.
Why 'initiation'?
You could as well call this an 'introduction' or a 'kick-off', we just like it to be an 'initiation'
as it calls for further actions to be performed by the trainees on their own after the course.
Learning Scrum or any other Agile practices cannot be taught as a University subject or a science. It is rather a never-ending self-educational practical curve that an IT professional should do over his/her career.
The course gives advices on where to start and where to aim. It provides reusable patterns that will make it easier to start from. Explains the need of being agile versus being ineffective. It gives useful hints on how one can be doing Agile in distributed environment.
The Topics
The agenda of the training will be varying upon the audience and their expertise in Agile. Though in general it should cover the following topics:
1 Agile philosophy
2 Scrum as one of the Agile approaches
3 Concepts and principles of Scrum
4 Structure of Scrum: meetings, artifacts
5 What Scrum gives to the teams. XP and Scrum
6 What Scrum gives to the customers
7 Starting a project with Scrum: reviewing different cases (optional part)
