This comprehensive course equips learners with the practical knowledge and critical thinking skills required to apply, analyze, and evaluate Agile Scrum principles across real-world project scenarios. Structured into two in-depth modules, the course introduces the foundational values of Agile and Scrum before advancing to operational controls, metrics, and certification strategies.
Through immersive lessons, learners will define and describe Scrum artifacts, roles, and events; differentiate Agile methods from traditional frameworks; and demonstrate Sprint execution and team collaboration strategies. In later modules, they will examine control mechanisms, resolve impediments, interpret burndown metrics, and prepare effectively for Scrum Master certification exams.
By the end of the course, learners will be able to:
• Apply Scrum methodologies to manage iterative product development
• Analyze team performance using Agile metrics and Scrum artifacts
• Evaluate and resolve real-time project impediments
• Interpret exam domains and demonstrate readiness for certification
Whether you’re new to Agile or preparing for professional certification, this course will help you build a strong operational and conceptual foundation to succeed as a Scrum Master in Agile teams.
This module introduces learners to the fundamental principles and practices of Agile and Scrum methodologies. It explores the rationale behind Agile adoption, the essential components of the Scrum framework, and the structure of a typical Agile Scrum environment. Learners will develop a foundational understanding of iterative development, roles and ceremonies in Scrum, and how Agile promotes transparency, collaboration, and value-driven delivery. Through real-world project insights and process breakdowns, this module builds the groundwork for further application of Agile Scrum in dynamic project scenarios.
This module explores the operational and control mechanisms within the Scrum framework and guides learners through practical applications such as impediment handling, continuous integration, and the use of metrics like burndown charts. It also prepares learners for Scrum Master certification by reinforcing their understanding of core concepts, processes, and exam-oriented strategies. By the end of the module, learners will be able to apply Scrum control principles, manage development impediments effectively, and interpret Agile metrics to drive continuous improvement and delivery.

What I liked most was the part about analyzing real team performance using burndown charts and Sprint metrics — it wasn’t just definitions, it was actual work practice.

Some sections felt a bit repetitive if you already had basic Scrum knowledge.
When will I have access to the lectures and assignments?
To access the course materials, assignments and to earn a Certificate, you will need to purchase the Certificate experience when you enroll in a course. You can try a Free Trial instead, or apply for Financial Aid. The course may offer 'Full Course, No Certificate' instead. This option lets you see all course materials, submit required assessments, and get a final grade. This also means that you will not be able to purchase a Certificate experience.
What will I get if I subscribe to this Specialization?
When you enroll in the course, you get access to all of the courses in the Specialization, and you earn a certificate when you complete the work. Your electronic Certificate will be added to your Accomplishments page - from there, you can print your Certificate or add it to your LinkedIn profile.
Is financial aid available?
Yes. In select learning programs, you can apply for financial aid or a scholarship if you can’t afford the enrollment fee. If fin aid or scholarship is available for your learning program selection, you’ll find a link to apply on the description page.
