What is scrum?

Scrum is one of the most popular agile frameworks for getting work done. It is often used by organizations and teams that develop products, but it is also used for other types of complex work, such as Human Resources, healthcare, manufacturing, education, and government.

The framework is composed of team member accountabilities (similar to roles), events (similar to meetings), artifacts, and activities. Scrum teams use these aspects of the framework to continuously improve how they work together and to rapidly adapt how they work based on feedback.

Ultimately, scrum has the potential to delight your customers, foster innovation, accelerate time to market, cultivate resilient organizations and happy teams, and provide an array of other benefits. Although seemingly straightforward and simple, scrum can be difficult to master. Knowledge and training can give you a head start.

How is this course different from Certified ScrumMaster®?

Take Scrum Essentials for an overview of the framework. Understand scrum’s teams, events, and artifacts, as well as the benefits of agile ways of working. Master the basics so you can get started with scrum in any role, and in any industry.

For an in-depth exploration of scrum and how a scrum master serves the team, product owner, and organization, consider the Certified ScrumMaster course. The CSM takes a deeper look at the scrum master accountability on the team. It’s a great option if you want to know more about scrum, and if you’re interested in or already working as a scrum master.

Similarly, you can expect to learn about the foundations of scrum in the Certified Scrum Product Owner and Certified Scrum Developer courses while also discovering the responsibilities and role of product owners and scrum developers.

Will I receive a digital badge upon completion of Scrum Essentials?

You’ll receive a digital badge to showcase your knowledge once you complete Scrum Essentials. This microcredential badge never expires.

How much do I need to know about agility to take this course?

There are no prerequisites for Agile Essentials. Dive into the concepts and walk away with new skills to drive results at any organization or enterprise.

Should I take the CSM or Scrum Essentials course?

Scrum Essentials is a great introductory option for people who want to master the basics of scrum. On the other hand, CSM presents a deeper dive and opens up more opportunities for growing your scrum skills and agile capabilities. Neither is a prerequisite for the other. If you’ve already taken any of the courses within the CSM, CSPO, or CSD track, you may find value in revisiting the basics with the Scrum Essentials course; however, they will be the same basics you learned about in your certification courses.
