Course details

As organizations get ambitious and ripe for growth with projects that span geographies and domains, they can no longer work on platforms that are suitable for just small projects. What they need is a large framework that can support multiple projects or can be scaled to suit the processes of the entire organization. Large-Scale Scrum (LeSS), as the name implies, is one such framework for scaling Scrum, lean and agile development to embedded systems that include very large, multisite and offshore product developments.

LeSS stays within the constraints of the standard “Scrum rules” such as empiricism, cross-functional self-managing teams and sprints for effective product delivery. But when organizations following traditional methods try to directly scale it, it demands drastic change implications that can only be carried out by knowledgeable change agents.

The Certified LeSS Practitioner is a reflection of a professional’s capacity to bring about this change and our course on LeSS gives you an in-depth understanding of all the LeSS principles, its framework, rules and guidelines to be followed while scaling it for product enhancement. Along with a comprehensive courseware, you will also be walked through case studies on LeSS adoption, extensive Q & A sessions, hands-on exercises, and real world examples for a thorough understanding of the issues involved. This course is apt for experienced professionals wanting to work for corporate giants who need hands-on producers to help realize organizational vision.

The course will provide value to anyone involved in the LeSS effort or looking for a career in Scrum/Agile. Experienced scrum masters, product owners, team leaders, testers, developers, architects, and business analysts will benefit.
