How is the SCRUMstudy Trainer Certification recognized within the industry and by employers?

SCRUMstudy Trainer Certification Recognition is widely acknowledged in the Agile community and beyond as a hallmark of excellence in Scrum and Agile training. Certified trainers undergo rigorous training and evaluation to ensure they possess comprehensive knowledge, proficiency, and effective teaching skills in Agile methodologies.

Obtaining a SCRUMstudy Trainer Certification holds significant importance for professionals aspiring to lead Scrum teams and educate others in Agile methodologies. The certification ensures that trainers are well-versed in the comprehensive framework and best practices of Scrum. It verifies their expertise in key concepts such as iterative development, incremental delivery, and cross-functional team collaboration. By becoming SCRUMstudy certified, trainers not only enhance their credibility and career prospects but also contribute to the success of Scrum implementation within organizations. They are equipped to deliver high-quality training sessions, foster a deeper understanding of Agile principles, and effectively guide teams towards improved productivity and project outcomes. Thus, the SCRUMstudy Trainer Certification is a valuable asset for professionals dedicated to advancing their knowledge and facilitating the growth of Scrum practices globally.

SCRUM training for several certification exams (including SMC®, SPOC®, SAMC™, and ESMC™) should preferably be conducted in classrooms or through virtual instructor-led sessions. It is important for every SCRUMstudy™ faculty to be an expert in the particular SCRUMstudy™ certification he or she is teaching, and be very familiar with the concepts in the SBOK® Guide. It is also important for the faculty to be a good teacher have adequate soft skills to handle different situations in a class, and consistently deliver very high-quality training.

Process for becoming an accredited SCRUMstudy™ Certified Trainer (SCT®):

  1. Trainers need to have at least 2 years of relevant work experience and should be willing to share their experiences in the classes they teach.

  2. They need to successfully pass any three SCRUMstudy™ certification exams (out of SDC®, SMC®, SAMC™, and SPOC®), including the certification course that they wish to teach.

  3. They need to be aware of the training resources available on the SCRUMstudy™ A.T.P. site (including videos, handbooks, recordings of past training sessions, etc). SCRUMstudy™ will provide substantial training resources that A.T.P.s and Trainers can customize and use for their classes - the training resources will focus more on SCRUM concepts rather than on how to pass SCRUMstudy™ certification exams. Other than the training resources available in SCRUMstudy™, additional custom content may need to be developed by individual A.T.P.s or Trainers.

  4. All Trainers should be associated with a SCRUMstudy™ A.T.P.

Once trainers complete the above requirements, they need to apply to SCRUMstudy™ to become an accredited trainer (mentioning the details of the A.T.P. with whom they are associated). Accredited Trainers will be certified as "SCRUMstudy™ Certified Trainers (SCT®s)" - and they will be awarded an accreditation certificate making them eligible to train students for SCRUMstudy™ certifications. They should train only for the A.T.P.s with whom they have got associated.

To ensure a high-quality learning experience for all our students, trainers need to consistently get high rankings in student feedback forms. SCRUMstudy™ will regularly ask for feedback from students who attend classes conducted by SCRUMstudy™ A.T.P.s Faculty who receive unfavorable feedback must work on improving their course delivery, or their accreditation as SCT®s may be terminated. SCRUMstudy™ reserves its right to terminate any SCT® from continuing training for SCRUMstudy™ classes because of poor feedback or for other reasons.
