Scrum is an impressive project management system that places a high priority on creating teams that utilize daily communication, short bursts of activity, and who embrace the ability to pivot quickly as a core value. The system was originally designed by software engineers who realized the old way of managing projects simply wasn't realistic or useful in a digital age where technology and trends change so rapidly. Today, Scrum is used in companies from around the world in industries of all kinds. Varsity Tutors can help you prepare for your Scrum Master certification by connecting you with the Certified ScrumMaster course that best fits your needs.
If you have longed for a way to expand your career opportunities in a wide variety of industry sectors by learning to masterfully implement the Agile practices found in Scrum, Certified ScrumMaster courses can help you move closer to your goal. The exam associated with certification is timed, and you will need to score at least 74 percent to earn a passing grade. Taking a timed course with such high stakes for your future can be intimidating! Working with an instructor who will take your personal needs into account is one of the many reasons Certified ScrumMaster prep classes can be so valuable in your overall preparation strategy.
Whether you want to work on building your test taking confidence, or you want to dive deeper into one of the topics covered in the exam, working with an instructor in a Certified ScrumMaster prep class can help. A Certified ScrumMaster class allows you to cover exactly what you need to focus on to be more fully prepared for the certification exam. To learn more about what is covered on the exam itself and the weight of each topic in the grading of the exam, please see the table below.
