Shailesh Holani

I have attended a CSPO training from World of Agile which was conducted by Mr. Amit Kulkarni on 8th and 9th July. The overall training experience was very good I can say.

The way Amit delivers the training was too good. We never felt bored during whole training even for a second. And I certainly believe that this training has enhanced my PO skills.

I recommend this training to all the aspiring POs and looking forward to have the advanced CSPO training soon.

- July 2023

Tamer - Excellent structure - Course simulated as agile sprint

Amit has an excellent structure and easy methodology. The sessions are informative and interactive. The topics are implemented using a scrum methodology, where everything from the beginning is simulated as a real sprint, starting from planning, incrementing, definition of done to the final marketable product.

Thanks, Amit, I enjoyed the course.

If I could give 6 stars, I would.

Soumya Ranjan Pani - More engaging

The CSPO Certification training experience was very nice. I have attended it in Classroom mode and was conducted by Mr. Amit Kulkarni on 8th and 9th July.

Amit's delivery style made it more engaging which led to quick grasping of concepts. It usually happens that we understand concepts but face difficulty while implementing them, but the real-life examples explained by Amit made the training more live and fruitful.

I would definitely recommend this CSPO Certification for all the aspirants.

H Rizwan - Amit Kulkarni is the Sachin Tendulkar of Scrum

I have always wanted to be a Scrum Master, and had been looking for reasons to do the PSM certification instead of CSM. However, after attending the actual CSM workshop, and understanding the need to get proper FaceTime with a Scrum Alliance certified trainer, I can safely say that I am super thankful to have attended Amit Kulkarni's CSM workshop.

Amit is a rockstar, and the closest thing to having the in-person experience, via Zoom! That speaks volumes about the kind of instructor, the kind of content delivery, the kind of dedication and the kind of passion that Amit emulates.

I feel so confident, going into any agile-related workspace, and having a hands-on conversation about anything Scrum related, and for that I am extremely thankful to Amit and his team.

His backend team was phenomenal, were always accessible, addressed all queries in a timely manner, and provided an excellent overall experience. Keep up the great work.

Anushree Bose - Thanks for the great session!!

Had an amazing two day session. My CSPO Trainer Amit Kulkarni superbly explained every bit of the things and answered all our questions. Most importantly the mode he used to explain the topics...not the traditional PowerPoint presentation but through whiteboard...writing and drawing figures and charts made it much more interesting. The activities and quizzes helped understand the topics more deeply. The session was really interactive. I really gained a lot of knowledge through this.

Kalidasan Selvam - Informative Scrum Certification Workshop Training

The overall session conducted by Trainer Dr Amit Kulkarni was very informative.

The Trainer had come prepared with the overall concepts and had them explained precisely. The session was primarily interactive and add proper balance between theoretical concepts understanding as well as apply of practical knowledge using case study and presentations.

All queries and concerns were adequately addressed.
Definitely would recommend this 2 day - CSPO workshop to more people looking to define and advance their career path in scrum leadership roles.

Aditi C Salunke - Great Course!!!

Mr. Amit Kulkarni made the entire learning experience very interesting by keeping the entire session highly interactive (NO PPTs used). He touched upon all the key details of the subject, answered all doubts using examples of real-life cases that simplified the understanding process, and used simple metaphors throughout the course that helped clarify concepts in-depth. Thank you Mr. Amit for making this course an exceptional learning experience. Kudos to you and your entire Team.

USA Training Session Feedback

I recently attended the class with Amit for the CSM certification and I highly recommend it. It was very productive, efficient, practical and with a fresh outlook to the Agile framework and Scrum Values!!!

Giselle Montalbano, CSM and CSPO Participant May 2020

Product Owner at The Depository Trust & Clearing Corporation (DTCC)

I attended Amit’s Certified Scrum Product Owner (CSPO) course. He’s an excellent course facilitator and trainer: knowledgeable (doesn’t rely on power point), highly engaging and extremely supportive. I enthusiastically recommend his course for aspiring Scrum professional. The course was very affordable as well.

Joshua Wilder, CSPO May 2020

Technical Program Manager, New York Area, Federal Home Loan Bank of New York

I thought my CSM was going to be just “tick in the box”, only focusing on the exam and certification. And I was sceptical about having a training via zoom (Covid-19) including the timezone difference. But to my surprise this turned out to be one of my best trainings ever. Amit has an astonishing CV and his experience and teaching skills forced me to finally understand scrum and agile basics. His examples were spot on. I cannot wait for my next course with Amit.”

More about Scrum:

In November 2020, new Scrum Guide was released. There are many changes done to Scrum Guide Like

  • Focus of Scrum changed from being a “process framework” to being a “individuals and interactions” focus.
  • Ambiguity with the Development Team and Scrum Team removed.

We have tried to capture all these changes through our Blog. Read Here.

Frequently Asked Questions

What is Scrum Alliance?

Scrum Alliance

Founded in 2001, Scrum Alliance is a 20+ year and the first Scrum/Agile certification body in the world. Scrum Alliance is the largest, most established and influential professional membership and certification organization in the Agile community. Scrum Alliance has certified more than 750,000 practitioners worldwide. Scrum Alliance vision is to “Transform the World of Work” with a mission to guide and inspire individuals, leaders, and organizations with practices, principles, and values that create workplaces that are joyful, prosperous, and sustainable.

Why Scrum Alliance certificates?

Scrum Alliance is a 20+ year and the first Scrum/Agile certification body in the world. Scrum Alliance trainers are approved only after rigorous approval process. Scrum Alliance trainers go through about 4-5 years of mentoring before they are allowed to do Scrum Alliance certifications. Therefore the Scrum Alliance trainers and some of the best trainers in the world. Most are authors, writers, thinkers and successful corporate individuals.

There are many duplicate certificates which have piggy-backed on the Scrum Alliance name and created replicas with change of a character in CSM or CSPO (like replacing Certified with Professional or with Licensed or with Registered). DO NOT waste time and money on duplicate certificates since they are not recognized by most organizations.

Why is Scrum Alliance CSM - CSPO Certifications the most valuable certificate in the world ?

Scrum Alliance Certificates are given by Certified Scrum Trainers (CSTs). CSTs are highly qualified and some of the best trainers in the world. There are only 220 odd CSTs in the world and only 12 CSTs in India.

The reason there are so less CSTs is because, CST is highly qualified individual and you need to be best-of-the-best in the world to become a CST. CSTs have good industry experience and are certified to be trainers after a lot of scrutiny. The Training given by a CST is authentic. Organizations recognize the importance of EXPERTISE.

Most organizations know that getting trained from a Certified Scrum Trainer (CST) ensures that the one who is trained has authentic knowledge about the Scrum and Agile.

Getting trainined from Scrum Alliance certified CST ensures that Certified Scrum Master or Certified Scrum Product Owner has approriate level of knowledge and skills to work on a Scrum Project.

What is the difference between CSM and CSPO? Are they more or less same?

NO. CSM is about Scrum Framework which is a process framework for execution purposes for solving complex problems. CSPO is about product development to take the product from high level to low level so that Scrum can solve the business problem.

Basically, CSM workshop starts with an assumption that there is a product backlog (requirements list) already there good enough to execute it… CSPO workshop ends at a time when the Product Backlog gets ready to execute.

What should I do first? CSM or CSPO?

While there is no prerequisite, our professional advice (based on views of experienced trainers and professionals such as Amit, Gaurav and Snehamayee) is that you should do CSM first. CSM makes it easy to understand CSPO since there is hardly any coverage of Scrum in CSPO. It is an assumption in CSPO that you already know Scrum.

Is CSM applicable to the non-IT industry?

Scrum is the most famous Agile framework. Scrum has already been used in Automobiles, Research, Education, Pharma, Manufacturing, Banking, etc. It is a way of doing or executing things. CSM can be used by non-IT industries as well.

Are there any prerequisites for CSM and CSPO certification?

Is it possible to take the CSM certification online exam without attending the Scrum Master certification?

You cannot take CSM certification online exam without attending the Scrum Master Class. It is mandatory to attend 2-day Scrum Master training from a Scrum Alliance Certified Scrum Trainer(CST) to be eligible to appear for the CSM certification online exam.
