Bridging the Gap Between Scrum & Design Practices

Design activities rarely seem to fit into “Sprints”. And it often feels appropriate to perform design work ahead of development. As a result, many teams struggle to incorporate all team members in the feedback loops that lead to high-quality design. This struggle is real, but solving this problem is worth the effort.

Development risks are mitigated by working in small, reversible steps — like the Sprint cadence. Scrum encourages teams to produce slices of new functionality each Sprint — design, development, testing, and delivery seem to occur simultaneously. As a result, many teams struggle to incorporate design activities that span multiple Sprints. This struggle is real, but solving this problem helps ensure the team is both building the right thing and the building the thing right.

The Professional Scrum with User Experience (PSU) course is a hands-on exploration of modern UX practices with Scrum. Learn UX techniques that fit beautifully with Scrum and practice these techniques with cross-functional teams in class.

Who Should Attend?

PSU is for anyone attempting to integrate the UX specialty with incremental & iterative development of product.

What People Say

It was a great class, 10/10 recommend!

PMP

The class is very interactive. All the knowledge is applicable in a real-life environment.

Revenue Operations Manager

David is clearly very knowledgeable and I really enjoyed the format/setup. He made it way more interactive than other courses I’ve taken. Game changer.

Design Ops Manager

I have gone through Agile training before. I found that this class enhanced my knowledge and gave me tools I will use with my team and new ways to approach our work.

UI/UX Designer

David was a great instructor! The structure of the class made it easy to follow and ask questions. The 1-on-1 format was helpful as well, as it was nice to be able to ask questions and discuss topics in more depth than a group session would allow. Highly recommend!

New Product Owner

I really enjoyed learning from David. He was exceptionally knowledgeable about Kanban and other Agile practices. He took time to understand me, why I was taking this course, and from that was able to apply the teachings to my specific needs. From this training I was able to take away a lot of techniques that will greatly help me and my teams.

Scrum Master

My experience with David Sabine and his Professional Scrum Master (PSM) class was truly exceptional, owing to several key factors. Firstly, David’s profound knowledge and expertise in the realm of Scrum and agile methodologies were truly outstanding. He possessed the remarkable ability to elucidate intricate concepts in a manner that was both accessible and captivating, enabling me to grasp the fundamental principles of Scrum with ease.
