Scrum Master role. It is also beneficial to anyone that will be using
or applying Scrum, as well as leaders that wish to implement more
effective practices in their organization. It is also of value to
those already applying Scrum and who have questions regarding its
application.

application)

WHAT'S DIFFERENT ABOUT LIVE, ONLINE COURSE DELIVERY?
* Delivering any training course online requires a different set of
technology and skills than an in-person course does. For example:
* Exercises have to be re-written or replaced while training
objectives are still maintained
* Delivery style has to be adapted for an 'audio/video delay'
environment
* Audience engagement has to be achieved in different ways
* Technology must be simple enough for students to use, powerful
enough for the trainer to use, and invisible enough not to impede
learning
Addressing this new environment requires a deep investment. Even
before Covid-19 affected the way training is delivered, Derek had
invested hundreds of hours in creating online video courses. The
experience of doing this has helped enormously in re-providing his
in-person course as a live, online, course.
As a result of the global lockdown, and the demand for training
delivery online, Derek attended online courses delivered by experts in
the field, to learn the craft of online delivery. He then devoted
additional hundreds of hours to converting his in-person course before
even thinking about live, online delivery.
Only when happy with his new content, was the course delivered to a
private client. It was a huge success and delivered valued feedback
that led to further adaptation to the material. It's only at this
stage that Derek considers the course worthy of being made available
as a public offering.
WHAT DOES THE COURSE OFFER?
As well as the course content, delivered as described above, there are
exercises, quizzes, puzzles and simulations where delegates work as
part of small teams within virtual breakout rooms to cement the
information and techniques taught
After the course, delegates receive a .PDF document of the material
and the exercise outcomes.
WHAT EQUIPMENT IS NEEDED?
* A computer, or tablet, with audio, video and microphone (please
use a headset or earphones to avoid feedback)
* A fast and secure internet connection
* An excellent browser (Google Chrome works best, Internet Explorer
does not work)
* If you can, download and install the Zoom application
WHAT WILL YOU RECEIVE?

* Certified Scrum Master Certification upon successful completion of
the short online certification exam
* Two year membership of the Scrum Alliance

YOUR TRAINER - DEREK DAVIDSON
Derek has been applying agile ways of working since before the Agile
Manifesto. In 1999, he started with Extreme Programming. Later, he
began using and then went on to earn his Professional Scrum Trainer
licence and his Certified Scrum Trainer licence. At time of writing,
he is the only person in Europe dual licenced as both a CST and a PST.
During his twenty years as an agilist, Derek has lived by the motto
'Practicing what I teach'. He spent considerable time applying Scrum
as a contractor and consultant, in the role of both Product Owner and
Scrum Master. He brings these experiences with him to every course
that he teaches.
Before becoming an agilist, Derek spent 18 years working with the
Armed Services. He learned the art of leadership at the Royal Air
Force College Cranwell and applied those lessons over the rest of his
career working with senior leadership in the Armed Services,
Government and Commercial sectors.
Between the Armed Services and becoming a Scrum Trainer, Derek has
worked at all levels in the software industry from programmer to CTO.
More recently, he has been working with non-software teams, especially
internal audit.
This rich set of experiences and knowledge uniquely qualifies Derek to
teach Scrum and to help you make the best investment in your Scrum
journey.
