You’ll also discover how to build high performing Agile teams by becoming a servant leader and coach, and how to coach those teams to deliver the maximum business value that is achievable through SAFe.

AI-Empowered SAFe Scrum Master
This 2-day course will give you an understanding of the role of a Scrum Master in a SAFe® enterprise.

Click to buy seat

Summary
Unlike traditional Scrum Master training that focuses on the fundamentals of team-level Scrum, the SAFe Scrum Master course explores the role of Scrum in the context of the entire enterprise and prepares you to successfully plan and execute the Program Increment (PI), the primary enabler of alignment throughout all levels of a SAFe organization. This includes learning the key components of scaled Agile development, how Scrum is facilitated throughout the enterprise, and how to execute iteration planning. You’ll also discover how to build high performing Agile teams by becoming a servant leader and coach, and how to coach those teams to deliver the maximum business value that is achievable through SAFe. The SSM certification signifies that you are prepared to perform the role of Scrum Master in a SAFe environment, increasing your value to teams and organizations that are implementing SAFe.
We will also explore how to leverage AI technologies and Large Language Models (LLMs) to boost Scrum Master effectiveness, optimize team workflows, and increase efficiency in Agile delivery.

LEARNING GOALS

Describe Scrum in a SAFe enterprise
Perform the role of the Scrum Master in SAFe
Facilitate Iteration Planning and effective Iteration execution
Support effective Program Increment execution
Build high performing teams by becoming a servant leader and coach.
