This was a very informative class. The information was relevant and the instructor were very knowledge and engaging.

It was constantly engaging while learning. I enjoyed the pace of the class and the interaction. It wasn't a heavy feeling, but more of a lightened approach to learning the course.

I loved the CSM class ran by Peter Saddington. There was so much extra material that wasn’t going by the book, very interactive and I learned to use the Miro board. I received some priceless advice that you’d never get from the book. It was eye opening.

Incredible trainers, very knowledgeable, and gives you the right amount of foundational theory before rolling into legit real-world application.

Overall, the instructor was average. I attended a course with Agile Bob several years ago and he really helped me revisit the importance of agility. This session with another instructor was somewhat disappointing. Why? I am glad you asked. There were a few points that were either glossed over and/or not conveyed correctly. For instance, the instructor did not know the difference between capacity and velocity. When I mentioned the 2 terms, he indicated that he used velocity and capacity interchangeably and wasn't going to argue over semantics. There was another individual in the class who also felt passionate about differentiating between the two terms to accurately determine how much work can be completed within a given iteration. It was not discussed any further. Another example of why I rated this training session average was because the second day seemed rushed and a lot of basic Scrum concepts were either glossed over or never mentioned. For instance, the importance of small user stories and the importance of INVEST was mentioned in a brief 2 sentences. During the Retrospective session, the instructor did not cover the importance of identifying action items based on what the team deemed most important via dot voting or whatever the technique. These action items help the team continuously improve. Regardless, this class enabled me to obtain my CSM. Thanks!

Awesome! It was a nice change of pace from other trainings were they are power point heavy. The interaction with those in the class is helpful in the learning process. It is also good to understand the why behind Agile and Scrum vs jumping right in with all of the concepts and teaching "you should be doing this".

Truly enjoyed the class. Was skeptical about the online format but Peter kept the class very engaging & used a variety of online collaboration tools, including Zoom breakout sessions and a Miro board. I loved picking up practical knowledge that easily transferable to other applications. I used all the study materials provided & passed the CSM first time through, no problem. Thanks a ton!

I enjoyed the course! I appreciated the insight that was on Product Owner as a whole, outside of Scrum itself. I think that more time could have been spent on product backlog and the different Scrum events. I appreciated the interactive breakouts, but was lost on Miro and even though I completed the prerequisites, I personally don't think there was enough background given on that, for how much it is a huge part of the interactive piece. The group really did help me out, and was happy to move me to the right spot and/or be the one to submit the notes for our group. I think using some of the resources now available after the course, at my own time, will be helpful for me. I also took away some aspects on motivation that could work outside of work as well, like with my condo building! I think the remote sessions worked well though, and I'm glad I took the course. Thank you!
