What is the Professional Scrum Master™ - Advanced (PSM-A) training?
Professional Scrum Master™ - Advanced (PSM-A) is an accredited training from Scrum.org based on hands-on exercises, designed for Scrum Masters who want to acquire additional knowledge and skills to support teams and the entire organization in holistic performance improvement.

The discussed program helps to reach a higher level of advancement, helping participants understand what stances characterize an effective Scrum Master and how to consciously switch between them. Participants will understand the differences between adopting the stance of teacher, impediments remover, coach, mentor, facilitator and change agent.
You will explore how to better serve Developers, the Product Owner, the organization and how to communicate better as a Scrum Master. In addition, you will learn what you need to do to become an effective Scrum Master. You will learn how to use the principles and values of Scrum to change the environment to one that is conducive to the development of teams working in Scrum.
During the training, each participant will be able to define the challenges faced by the role of Scrum Master, then diagnose in which areas may triumph and in which still needs development. You will leave the classroom with a set of actions for yourself and for your organization, all developed during the training based on your own participation.
