Who is the course for
Training materials are developed and supported by one of the creators of Scrum Ken Schwaber, together with the PST Scrum.org community. They ensure that the materials are always up to date with what is happening in the software development companies and the latest practices.
Our trainers conduct courses in their own style and based on their own experience, but the training materials are the same all over the world, so students learn the same regardless of where the course is and who conducts it.
In 2 days, participants will receive relevant knowledge that will help to effectively fulfill the role of the Scrum Masters or the coach of the program development team.

Bio
Слава Москаленко - Аджайл-коуч, тренер, агент змін, спікер і євангеліст Аджайл-культури. Працює в IT більше 13 років.
У своїй статті про те, як з'явилося рішення працювати в Аджайле, Слава зізнається, що на самому початку Аджайл-буму в Україні ставився до гнучких підходів скептично. Повірити в Скрам його переконала заміна продукту, який улюблена команда розробляла 2 роки: той виявився неконкурентоспроможним. Конкурентам в тій ситуації дав перевагу не продукт, а організація робочих процесів. Кілька подальших дослідів переконали Славу продовжувати працювати по скрам.
Багато років пропрацювавши програмістом, в 2012 році він став керувати Аджайл-трансформацією клієнтів Luxoft, в тому числі UBS, Deutsche Bank, Hotwire. З 2015 року Слава продовжив розвиватися вже як професійний Скрам-тренер (Professional Scrum Trainer, PST). У цій ролі Слава надавав високоякісні консультації по Аджайлу таким клієнтам, як Lufthansa, Nordea, Credit Suisse і багатьом іншим.
У 2017 році Слава почав працювати як Аджайл-коуч PaloIT і проживає в Сінгапурі. У цій ролі Слава працює над новим рівнем консалтингу про гнучких підходів до бізнесу. Один з перших його клієнтів - BMW.
