Can you train my entire Scrum team at the same time?

We can certainly arrange to have your entire team attend the course together. Doing so provides a huge advantage because they'll all learn the same information at the same time. 

We use the Scrum Developer Certified® course, which ensures that Scrum Team members (and anyone who interacts with a Scrum team) know enough about Scrum to effectively contribute to a Scrum project.

Do I need to attend the virtual live-led online class or can I just study by myself?

You can in fact just study the online materials to prepare yourself for the exams. However, we recommend also attending the virtual live-led online class so that you can get answers to your individual questions. Even more important than hearing what the instructor says, you'll have a chance to hear from other students and learn from their experiences.

Do I have to attend the virtual live-led online class right away?

No, you do not. 

  • If you select the Individual-No Date registration type, you can pay for the course and select to attend a Scheduled Course anytime within the first 4 months after payment.
  • If circumstances change after you select a date to attend the live-led class, you can move your attendance to another date within that first 4 months but only once, so plan carefully.
  • You can skip the live-led class entirely, but we don't recommend it! The live-led class is included in your purchase; you will want to make the effort to attend it. 
  • You must take and pass the exam within 6 months of payment. You are allowed 3 attempts to pass the exam.
How do I pay for the course?

During the registration process, you'll select a payment method. There is a processing fee of approximately 3.5% for all purchases. Consider clicking on each option to find the lowest processing fee.
