About the course
What this course covers
The Professional Scrum Developer (PSD) course is a hands-on workshop that places developers in a Scrum team and asks them to deliver working software every Sprint. It does not assume a particular language; it assumes you can write code and want to improve how you deliver.
You practise the Developer accountabilities in Scrum: planning the Sprint, creating a Done Increment, adhering to a Definition of Done and adapting daily. Along the way you apply source control, automated testing, test-driven development, continuous integration, code reviews and refactoring, and learn how to avoid technical debt.
The PSD I assessment (80 questions, 60 minutes, 85% pass mark) tests your understanding of Scrum from a Developer's viewpoint and of the supporting engineering practices. The certification is lifetime and has no renewal fee.
Who should attend
- ● Software developers and engineers
- ● Test engineers and automation engineers

- ● Technical leads and architects in Scrum teams
- ● Engineering managers who want to understand modern practices
Prerequisites

FAQs
Questions learners ask us
Q.Which programming language is used?
The course is language-agnostic; the trainer will tell you which language and tools to prepare at enrolment. You should be comfortable coding in one.
