    Skills You Will BuildIn the CSM Certification Course

    By the end of the CSM course you can facilitate Scrum events, coach a Scrum Team, manage artefacts and remove impediments. The programme maps to the six Scrum Alliance CSM topic areas, aligned to the November 2020 Scrum Guide, so what you learn matches both the exam and real delivery.

    Scrum Theory and Empiricism

    Skills covered in the CSM course begin with the empirical foundations of Scrum: transparency, inspection and adaptation, and why Scrum thrives in complex work. You will connect Scrum to the Agile Manifesto and explain when and why it works.

    Living the Five Scrum Values

    Apply commitment, focus, openness, respect and courage to build trust and psychological safety on a team. You will learn how the values enable the three pillars and how a Scrum Master models them day to day.

    Scrum Team and Accountabilities

    Understand how the Scrum Master, Product Owner and Developers form one self-managing, cross-functional team. You will learn each accountability and how to enable self-management rather than direct it.

    Facilitating the Five Scrum Events

    Facilitate the Sprint, Sprint Planning, Daily Scrum, Sprint Review and Sprint Retrospective, keeping each within its timebox. You will practise formats and techniques that make events productive and outcome-focused.

    Scrum Artefacts and Commitments

    Work with the Product Backlog, Sprint Backlog and Increment, and their commitments: the Product Goal, Sprint Goal and Definition of Done. You will learn to keep artefacts transparent and useful across sprints.

    The Scrum Master as Servant Leader

    Serve the team, the Product Owner and the wider organisation through coaching, facilitation and impediment removal. You will learn how servant leadership differs from managing and how to drive agile adoption.
