Course Description

Scrum Alliance has adopted the Scrum Guide, The Definitive Guide to Scrum: The Rules of the Game, co-authored and updated (most recently in 2017) by the co-creators of the Scrum framework, as the guiding curriculum for this offering. CSPO candidates are expected to build a body of knowledge of the Scrum framework, including its roles, events, and artifacts.

Incorporating Scrum principles and practices takes diligence, patience, and a commitment to continuous improvement. Scrum is a framework, not a prescriptive methodology. Participants in a CSPO offering should expect each Learning Objective identified in this document to be covered. Students should also expect the Scrum Foundations Learning Objectives to be covered before or during the offering.
