This training is available in both Czech and English language.
The training is intended for:
- Project Managers looking to learn more about agile management
- Junior Scrum Masters looking to deepen their knowledge of Scrum in modern Engineering teams
- Engineering teams and Engineering managers looking to improve their efficiency
Agile and Scrum basics and foundations are covered within the course however, it is beneficial if all participants are already familiar with them.
The ultimate goal of this training is to reinforce your existing knowledge about agile software development and to put it into the context of modern software engineering and DevOps. In this training, we will create a generalized blueprint and a set of best practices for your daily operations.
After completing this training you will be able to discuss and introduce reasonable improvements to your existing processes and daily workflows.
Note: In the training, we are building upon the Engineering Management role, defined as a technical leader and representative of the self-organizing team. Benefits and drawbacks are explained in Part 1: Theory.
The training is split into two half-day blocks: Theory and Best Practices. It can take place online, in the evening at your office, or as a one-day off-site get-together.
In the theoretical part, we will revisit the history of agile and Scrum and dig deeper into theoretical definitions. Later in the training, we would use basic definitions to create a simple end-to-end workflow for daily team operations.
