Your CSM training experience with Michael Vizdos

This unique Certified Scrum Master Training (authorized by the Scrum Alliance) is about shifting your mindset and learning a new perspective.

We’ll get into the weeds and work through exercises designed to learn about Scrum through hands-on simulations. By the time you have completed this two-day training, you will:

  • Experience what it is like to actually work on a Scrum Team and how to effectively create an environment for a high-performing team to thrive in the real world. Scrum is all about people.

  • Understand the important Definition of DONE within a Sprint along with figuring out who is your real customer (so you can deliver outcomes they require!).

  • Interact with people of all experience levels and diverse professions, participate in many different simulations, and discuss real-world situations.

  • Have the chance to play the accountability of a Scrum Master and — guided by me — see what it is like to walk through some effective Retrospective techniques.

  • Have some real, actionable outcomes you can put into place the next working day with the techniques you have learned.

  • Be more than prepared to pass the Scrum Alliance CSM assessment; however, this course is much more than a test-preparation class. It is interactive, requires some preparation, and your participation is expected.


Why is this CSM Training with Michael Vizdos unique?

  • Small Cohort

    • You’ll receive personalized concierge service created just for you

    • This is not a “on-and-done” CSM Training in a large group of strangers you’ll probably never see again

    • We usually have no more than 10 people from different places — and experience levels — around the world.

  • Before your CSM Training

    • Preparation starts as soon as you sign up for your CSM Training

    • You can schedule a get-to-know-you call with Michael Vizdos (to gain context together)

    • Review the online Scrum Fundamentals to prepare for your CSM experience

    • Scheduled cohort calls and emails start a week ahead of your CSM Training.

  • 2 Days Live and Online CSM Training

  • After your CSM Training

    • Regular online group check-ins with your cohort (and other past attendees) for life.
