SAFe® 6 Scrum Master with SSM Certification

It prepares you to successfully plan and execute the Program Increment (PI), the primary enabler of alignment throughout all levels of a SAFe organization.
SAFe® 6 Advanced Scrum Master with Certification (SASM)
This two-day course prepares current Scrum Masters for their leadership role in facilitating Agile team, program, and enterprise success in a SAFe® implementation. The course covers the facilitation of cross-team interactions in support of the program execution and relentless improvement. It enhances the Scrum paradigm with an introduction to scalable engineering and DevOps practices; the application of Kanban to facilitate the flow of value; and supporting interactions with architects, product management, and other critical stakeholders in the larger program and enterprise contexts.
In order to succeed with agile, teams and organizations should focus first on “being agile” as a foundation for success in “doing agile.” Using Lego® Serious Play®, ICAgile’s fundamental learning objectives delve into key concepts such as adaptive planning, value-driven development, team collaboration, and frequent feedback for continuous improvement. The course also covers the history of agile, the agile manifesto, the agile principles, and some widely applied frameworks and practices.
Tailored Training
Sometimes there’s not a ready-made training solution with your name on it. Maybe you need to tackle Kanban at the enterprise level. Maybe executives need to see how agile affects all levels of an organization. Maybe your project is stalling and you need a course that level-sets knowledge and tackles your particular roadblocks. We’re passionate about product delivery at all levels, and we’d love to dig in deep and help you!

High-Performing Team Demonstration
The research is clear: High-performing teams are extremely rare, but their ability to impact an organization is limitless. If we know this is what we’re aiming for, why is high performance so elusive, and how can organizations and leaders create environments where it can flourish? Through a live performance & a facilitated conversation, a small music ensemble will offer insights into their organizational dynamics. You will walk away from the session with a greater understanding of the marks of a high-performing team, behaviors that inspire and detract from high performance, the role of leadership in high performance, and how leaders can inspire high performance in the teams with whom they work.
