Description
This course teaches you how to develop a Hybrid Scrum course that combines the best of the Waterfall approach with the best of the Agile Scrum approach.The course begins with a description of the evolution of Agile, which includes Scrum as one of the Agile frameworks. Then it describes step-by-step the Scrum framework, including what takes place in each activity, who does it, and who is responsible for it. Then the substantial part of the course is devoted to describing how the best of Waterfall and the Best of Scrum are integrated to produce a powerful hybrid course that can be expected to outperform both Waterfall and typical Agile projects, including Scrum projects. Important results can be a substantial increase in the project success rate and creating delighted customers.In the step-by-step description of Scrum, it seeks to cover virtually all the information in The Scrum Guide 2020, which is considered the most authoritative guide to Scrum.
