What is Scrum and how has it evolved?
Why does Scrum work and what are its core principles? How are the Scrum principles different from those of more traditional software development approaches, and what is the impact?
How Scrum theory is implemented using time-boxes, roles, rules, and artefacts. How can these be used most effectively and how can they fall apart?
Scrum is different: what does this mean to my project and my organisation? How do I best adopt Scrum given the change that is expected?
A system isn’t just developed, it is also sustained, maintained and enhanced. How is the Total Cost of Ownership (TCO) of our systems or products measured and optimised?
Scrum Teams are self-organising and cross-functional; this is different from traditional development groups. How do we start with Scrum teams and how do we ensure their success?
Plan a project and estimate its cost and completion date.
Scrum is empirical. How can predictions be made, risk be controlled, and progress be tracked using Scrum. Discussion starts with “Done and Undone” and continues with Quality Assurance in Scrum.
Scrum works great with one team. It also works better than anything else for projects or product releases that involve hundreds or thousands of globally dispersed team members. How is scaling best accomplished using Scrum?

Upon completion of this course, you will have all the knowledge required to sit the Professional Scrum Master certificate exam.
ALC’s Professional Scrum Master course is based on the syllabus as set down by Scrum.org, the international curator of the Scrum agile process.
The course covers Scrum fundamentals and key principles including the framework, mechanics, and roles of Scrum. The course also teaches how to use Scrum, how to optimise value, productivity and the total cost of ownership of software products.
Participants learn through instruction and team-based exercises, and are challenged to think on their feet to better understand what to do when they return to their workplaces.
Scrum.org certification is the premium certification and requires a minimum score on a rigorous assessment. The Professional Scrum Master course has two associated assessments with two levels of certification: PSM I and PSM II.
If you complete the Professional Scrum Master course you will receive a password to take the PSM I online assessment one time within a 14-day period following the course. If you score 85% or better you will receive the industry-recognized “PSM I” certification and your name will be posted on the Professional Scrum Master I certification list.
The cost of the first attempt is included in the price of the PSM class. Subsequent attempts have to be separately purchased. Participants who pass PSM I are also eligible for the PSM II certification test at a discounted price.
SABSA Advanced Module A4:
Incident, Monitoring & Investigations Architecture
Course+ Exams
$4620 + gst
Due to the nature of Advanced course modules and examination, it is required that participants bring personal computing devices in order to create, discuss, share, populate and store personal work product in portable, editable form, such that it can be applied extensively:
Candidates are responsible for ensuring the computing devices they use are pre-loaded with all software that may be appropriate to their needs including word processors, spread sheets, databases, and diagramming tools.
The SABSA Foundation Certificate is a pre-requisite for the SABSA Advanced modules.
The examination approach for a SABSA Advanced Course is totally different from that used at Foundation Level. Candidates are required to demonstrate advanced competencies to use the SABSA method and framework.
The examination is therefore entirely “open book” and project-based. Examination papers contain 5 questions from which candidates must choose 2 to answer. Using examples from real working environments, or by creating a case study, or a combination of both, candidates are required to assess issues, evaluate solution approaches, and customise and apply the SABSA method and framework to create and populate appropriate SABSA work-products (techniques, tools, templates, models, frameworks, etc.).
Examination answers must be provided within 4 weeks of the examination date.
Please understand that this more flexible format means your results will take longer than for Foundation – marking will only begin when the last delegate’s exam is submitted which means it could take 10 to 12 weeks for notification if several delegates take the full four weeks to submit their exams.
