Virtual Certified ScrumMaster Workshop — Pacific Time — September 15-16, 2026

This is a live, instructor-led virtual Certified ScrumMaster (CSM) workshop taught by Rod Claar, CST, running two full days (9:00 AM–5:00 PM Pacific Time) for a total of 16 contact hours. It's aimed at project managers, team leads, product owners, developers, testers, and business analysts who want to learn Scrum fundamentals and lead Scrum teams effectively — not a fit for experienced ScrumMasters seeking advanced training or those wanting Product-Owner-specific content.

What's covered: rationale for Agile/Scrum, Scrum roles and responsibilities, Scrum ceremonies (planning, standup, review, retrospective), backlog/story writing and release planning, practical Scrum adoption strategies, a large hands-on Scrum simulation, and process improvement/exam prep — closing with a certification-focused Q&A.

What attendees get: eligibility to sit the Scrum Alliance CSM exam (online, open-book, with a guarantee to work with students until they pass), 14 PDUs, a 2-year Scrum Alliance membership, session recordings, and an optional Gold Plan add-on (up to 8 hours of personalized post-class coaching).

Price/logistics: $399–$449 depending on registration tier (early bird/standard/late), 12 seats available, full attendance both days required for certification, team discounts for 3+ attendees, and a new "half now, half later" payment option.
