The Certified ScrumMaster (CSM) training by Jeff Sutherland is intended for everyone who is (interested in) working in or with a Scrum team. Regardless of your job title: you can be a tester, manager, analyst, programmer or ...(fill in your own job title). The only thing we would strongly like to recommend is to have at least basic understanding of Scrum. This CSM course does cover the basics as well, but you and your fellow team members will get the most out of these two days when these basics can be treated as repetition instead of introduction. Read some books on the subject, learn from your colleagues who might already be working with Scrum and of course, follow our one-day Scrum Foundation training.
