Benjamin Schachter Project Manager at DramaFever, New York City
Good and informative training on CSM. The trainer helped throughout the session.
Jeanette Sanders Risk Manager, New York City
This was terrific course with tons of training aids, games, slides, videos etc. The trainer was very much in tune with the participants and was very adaptive and agile with his approach to the class.
Great information and great structure. Pace of second day was much more aggressive but first day was critical to people, without as much agile experience. Incredibly an effective training by a down to earth instructor.
Simplilearn provided me with one of the best trainers of CSM, he explained the concepts in a fun way which was very easy to understand and because of his guidance, I was able to clear the CSM certification with 94.3%.
Loved it ! Trainer was enthusiastic and engaging as an instructor. He shared real world experiences and went beyond the course material. The style and the manner in which he presented really helped us to make scrum methodologies understandable and captured the true essence of it.
Anand Gurumurthi Senior Member of Technical Staff @Salesforce, San Francisco
The training was absolutely great. I have been doing scrum for more than 3 years, but got lot of areas clarified. I learned many things that I would like to try with my team. I would highly recommend this course to everyone who is part of an agile team.
The core concepts gave me the ability to see how I could incorporate scrum into our leach culture. The integration of technology has always been a challenge. However, now I could see the capabilities of integration with owners and our development team with scrum.
Training was good; instructor was very knowledgeable and kept the topics understandable.
Tanushree Mukherjee Sr. Project Manager, San Francisco
This course has been very hands-on besides being very knowledgeable. I would like to use my new skills in the work domain. Hubert is an excellent teacher and his real word experience was an invaluable asset to the course.
Great presentation. Its very reassuring to have an instructor who has been through it all and has ready answers for every question and issues. Interesting stories, relevant examples and overall a very enriching experience !
I found the course to be very engaging. Trainer's knowledge and enthusiasm for the subject was good which was translated into a great discussion. I will take away a great deal of knowledge that I hope to apply in my career.
It was a very useful class where Hubert helped us analyze our own situations while integrating these examples in to the course material. I read a lot about scrum practices before taking this course but I learned new things from examples and exercises discussed in the class. Also, it was refreshing to interact with other people from the same boat.
High quality beginners course, with very good insight on scrum values and best practices to build team ownership and early learning of deviations on business initial expectations to inform decision making.

What is a Certified ScrumMaster?
As defined by the Scrum Alliance, a Certified ScrumMaster is someone who has been taught (by a Certified Scrum Trainer) the Scrum terminology, practices, and principles that will enable them to fulfill the role of ScrumMaster or Scrum team member.
Completing a Certified ScrumMaster course is the first step to becoming more familiar with Scrum and Agile frameworks.
