Certified Scrum Developer: Agile Software and Test-Driven Development - Accredited by Scrum Alliance
Course Details
Scrum is an Agile framework that can be used to manage and control complex software and product development through iterative cycles and incremental releases. Such Agile approaches are especially suited where requirements are vague or unclear, or designs or technologies are unproven, and as such are an increasingly popular alternative to traditional methods. Of all Agile approaches, Scrum is the most popular and the Scrum Certification programme administered by the ScrumAlliance is the most widely recognised.
This course provides hands-on instruction in the vital Agile software engineering and eXtreme Programming practices that are employed by Scrum teams. Detailed examination and demonstration of Agile development and testing techniques provides a firm theoretical understanding of the benefits and pitfalls of working in an Agile team. Practical exercises based on working case study scenarios enable delegates to explore and experience Agile development and testing first hand, giving them the level of true understanding required to employ the techniques successfully back in the workplace.
Audience
This course will benefit software developers and testers who wish to employ Agile software development practices using either .NET or Java (this course is available for both). Delegates attending this course must have a prior awareness and understanding of Agile team practices including User Stories and Iteration Planning. Those delegates who are already Certified Scrum Masters or certified Scrum Product Owners will be eligible for Certified Scrum Developer status on completion of this course.

Testimonials
I have been in the IT industry for over 17 years working as a Senior Project Manager for Logica and am now Agile Project Director for Logitak Ltd. Of all the trainers in the U.K. , I have chosen to repeatedly go back to RADTAC (Certified Agile Project Manager, Certified ScrumMaster and now the Certified Scrum Developer course) for three reasons : 1) the quality of their courses is exceptional 2) their trainers are what can only be described as Thought Leaders, and 3) mostly significantly, they place an unusual emphasis on great customer service at every stage, even post course completion. RADTAC have taken the UK initiative in introducing the Certified Scrum Developer Course in the United Kingdom, and in that respect are helping promote key Agile XP practices which are still widely misunderstood.
