Registered Scrum@Scale Practitioner (RS@SP)
"There is more to scaling than following a prespective set of practices. Learn Scrum@Scale. Then apply the practices from Scrum@Scale in place of, or in addition to, what you already doing."
Don - Your Grow-Lean Trainer

Registered Scrum@Scale Overview
Through the Registered Scrum@Scale Practitioner (RS@SP) course, you’ll learn how to scale Scrum, using Scrum@Scale, a lightweight agile framework that helps people, teams and organizations to deliver valuable solutions when faced with complex, challenging problems. We’ll apply Scrum to teams-of-teams and organizations, describing how the Product Owner, individual Scrum teams, and enterprise leadership interact in a variety of different scaling situations while applying Scrum@Scale.
At the heart of Scrum@Scale are the Product Owner and ScrumMaster cycles, two sets of Scrum practices that define the “what” and the “how” of product development. You’ll learn these two cycles and how to connect them together to effectively deliver high-value, high-quality products at scale.
Once you complete the Registered Scrum@Scale Practitioner (RS@SP) course, you’ll qualify to take the Registered Scrum@Scale Practitioner exam and earn the RS@SP credential from the Agile Education Program.
