What is a Professional Scrum Master?
Scrum is a framework for effective project management encompassing a set of meetings, tools and roles within a team to create structure and seamless workflow.
Applying Scrum to your organisation will ensure accountability and a systematic approach to achieving business goals. Led by a Professional Scrum Master, its methodology helps teams work together, define clear roles, adapt to change quickly and collectively achieve goals.Scrum Masters are essential to any organisation, and a Professional Scrum Master certification is a huge asset to anyone seeking to enhance their professional project management career. In the Professional Scrum Master course, you'll learn how to launch, lead, develop and improve organisational output through a combination of practical and theatrical learning and group discussion.
How is a Scrum Master Different from a Project Manager?
Both Scrum Masters and Project Managers solve problems and help facilitate an effective workflow. They perform the same role within an organisation but have very different approaches and results.A Project Manager is in a position of control. They set objectives, assign tasks, track timeframes, develop progress reports and are responsible for team communication. As a more traditional management role, there is little opportunity for collaboration. Conversely, a Scrum Master is part of a team and facilitates collaboration and collective work. In doing so, a Scrum Master enhances a team's workflow but ensures everyone is contributing in a meaningful way.
What's included in a Professional Scrum Master certification?
Scrum is part of the Agile way of working, and a Professional Scrum Master certification course begins with an introduction to the benefits of Agile and Scrum. Understanding the history, process and foundational principles is essential to your education as it'll allow you to apply the Scrum framework confidently. By the end of the course, you will understand the following Scrum Master elements:
- Roles and responsibilities
- How to apply Scrum to your organisation
- Discuss benefits and advocate the Scrum values
