Description
Scrum is the de facto approach used by software development teams not just because it allows for better work practices, but also because it allows for easy implementation of other processes and practices. Kanban, on the other hand has been widely accepted as the next best evolution of Agile after Scrum. Often termed as an ‘alternative path to agility’, its focus on improving problem solving, managing flow, promoting collaboration and experimentation and reducing bottlenecks, helps improve business agility and deliver superior quality end products.
This 2-day course helps Scrum practitioners effectively apply Kanban practices to their existing Scrum work and improve performance on an ongoing basis by inspecting and adapting. Through theory, case studies, and hands-on exercises, participants will understand the importance of transparency and flow as it pertains to the Scrum framework, improve flow efficiency and customer value. KnowledgeHut’s course will also make you eligible to attempt Scrum.org’s Professional Scrum with Kanban™ I (PSK I) assessment and gain the certification at the first attempt.

Very well conducted. Proactive management from the moderator, many exercises, hence quite practical, minimizing theoretical overload. Very pleased with the learning, for new starters as well as more experienced participants. Great experience sharing.
Attended workshop in February 2018The experience over the two-day course was fantastic. It was not a dry explanation of the Scrum framework. Instead, a practical, example driven 2 days where we worked through all elements of the Scrum framework. I would have no hesitation in recommending Marco Mulder as a Scrum Master trainer or as a business Scrum coach within a commercial environment. His experience in this field was clear and impressive.
Attended workshop in April 2018Knowledge Hut experience has been very good, this is my second registration with them directly and had total 3 registrations with them. The Trainer, Venue, Course material, Food and other logistics are well organized and managed. Special thanks to Lalit who takes extra effort to help and coordinate on everything. I am happy to take up other courses offered with Knowledge Hut and recommend others also to consider.
Attended workshop in April 2018Marco 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.
