Alex is a fantastic trainer. I did not have much expectation from the training but I have learned a lot in the training. Not only I got to know more about Scrum and its tools but also where to use it and where not to. Alex has immense knowledge in scrum having spent more than a decade as a Scrum Professional. I would recommend everyone to register for this course who wants to know about Scrum processes & practises.
Attended workshop in November 2017I took the 3 days Certified Scrum Developer course at Knowledge hut and overall I had an enriching experience. The class size was good with 25-30 folks in there. The course was well-organized and distributed across the 3 days. Before this training, I had kind of informal understanding about Scrum. However, post this training my knowledge about Scrum and Agile principles has formalized and has been given a better shape.
Attended workshop in November 2017Marco is a brilliant Scrum coach. I had the pleasure to attend Certified Scrum Master training with Marco as a trainer. I was particularly impressed by Marco's hands on experience that sets him as a captivating knowledgeable trainer. Marco has a very unique approach as a trainer in which he actively engages all participants regardless of their background. And I still keep the really inspiring book on SCRUM he gave to me along with the planning poker cards we used to do task estimation! As a Scrum coach, Marco earns my highest recommendation.
Attended workshop in October 2017Marco is an excellent trainer. I had the pleasure of participating in a 2-day CSPO training camp in Berlin in 2018. He provides great insights about the Scrum framework using exceptional real-world examples, backed-up by well-structured theory mixed with realistic problem-solving "games". Without a doubt, it is the best course I have attended during my career. If you want to deep dive into Scrum, I highly recommend participating in one of Marco's training.

Scrum is rapidly emerging as the desired approach to product development, and the Certified Scrum Developer (CSD) credential is given to those who have demonstrated through formal training and a technical assessment that they have a thorough grasp of Scrum principles. To succeed with Scrum, teams must have very specific skills and capabilities. They must be able to break down functionality into small blocks which fit into sprints, and develop high quality software that is flexible enough to be changed easily.
No, there is no online/virtual course for CSD. The CSD Certification requires in-depth knowledge of the Scrum essentials and its technical concepts, which you get from our certified experts who lead the workshop.
You will get 40 PDUs and 24 SEUs on completing the 5 day training toward your continuing education requirements with the Project Management Institute (PMI) for PMP and PMI-ACP certifications. Those who attend the 3 day Technical Track training will get 24 PDUs and 24 SEUs.
PDUs and SEUs are credits awarded by the Project Management Institute and the Scrum Alliance respectively. They recognize your dedication to the Project Management and Agile world through the award of credits for every educational effort you make throughout your career. At present, Scrum Alliance members who hold a Certified Scrum Professional®, Certified Enterprise Coach and/or Certified Scrum Trainer credential need to earn SEUs to get recertified. Every PMI® certification, except the CAPM®, requires you to earn a specific number of PDUs per three-year certification cycle.
