This month our focus is on skills development and it's all about SCRUM!

SCRUM IS A FUN & PROFITABLE "WAY TO GET WORK DONE"

It is based on the concept of "KISS"(i.e Keep It Simple Stupdi); by only specifying a few concepts and letting you and your organization fill in the gaps. Scrum is considered an Agile method because the values and principles of Agile Manifesto can be found throughout. Scrum is also based on its own set of values; commitment, focus, openness, respect and courage. According to a VersionOne survey, Scrum is the most popular of the Agile Methods.

• Discussion of the Agile framework
      - 4 values and 12 principals of the agile manifesto
• High level discussion of the various agile frameworks
• High level overview of Scrum to include: 
      - Roles of the Scrum Master, Product Owner and User Stories
