This two-day workshop has been designed by training experts to provide learners with a unique experience.  Focusing on real experience, this course introduces and reinforces important concepts to help address the real-world problems that Scrum Masters face daily.  Unlike other courses, you'll walk away with an actual portfolio of games, tools, and techniques to enhance your coaching/training/mentoring/facilitating experience with your organization.  This course not only teaches you the concepts, it prepares you to go back and teach them yourself.
