This course teaches you how to develop a Hybrid Scrum course that combines the best of the Waterfall approach with the best of the Agile Scrum approach. The focal areas of the course are: project design, systems integration, and project management.
The course begins with a description of the evolution of Agile, which includes Scrum as one of the Agile frameworks. Then it describes the Scrum framework step-by-step, including what takes place in each activity, who does it, and who is responsible for it. Next, a substantial part of the course is devoted to describing how the best of Waterfall and the Best of Scrum are integrated to produce a powerful hybrid project that can be expected to outperform both Waterfall and typical Agile projects, including Scrum projects. There can be a substantial increase in the project success rate and result in delighted customers.
It covers virtually all the information in The Scrum Guide 2020, which is considered the most authoritative guide to Scrum. You will lean how to integrate the scrum processes with selected Waterfall processes to produce a successful hybrid project. You also will learn which project management tools to use to maximize the efficiency and effectiveness of your project. They include tools typically used in Scrum projects as well as a selection of tools borrowed from Waterfall.
Because projects compete for funding, you will learn how to prepare a budget for your project, calculate the ROI of your project, and add risk management to your project. You will learn how to use risk brainstorming to evaluate proposed solutions and select the best one, which can impress decisionmakers and to help ensure the success of your project.
The course includes self-tests, handouts, and optional readings related to each section of the course.
This course is for anyone who wants to improve the success rate of the projects in their organization. The course can benefit beginners as well as advanced project professionals. The only prerequisite is a desire to create successful software development projects
