Birmingham, AL (PRWEB) September 09, 2014 -- The Braintrust Consulting Group will host Scrum training classes the week of October 13-17, 2014 at Hampton Inn—Clearwater. Registration is now open for three classes: Certified Scrum Developer (CSD)-Track Two, Agile Engineering and Scrum Essentials.

The Braintrust Consulting Group has bundled a series of classes into a complete track to earn Scrum Developer certification, as outlined by The Scrum Alliance. A Certified Scrum Developer is someone who has demonstrated through a combination of formal training and a technical skills assessment that he or she has a working understanding of Scrum principles and has learned specialized Agile engineering skills. The Certified Scrum Developer Track Two class combines our Scrum Essentials class, Agile Engineering Practices class, and Test Driven Development class into an in-depth five-day training.
The CSD Track Two is intended for professional software developers and is ideal for candidates who already have their Certified ScrumMaster (CSM) certification or developers who are interested in move advanced Test Driven Development (TDD) techniques.
At the conclusion of the five days, participants will have a thorough understanding of Scrum Development and meet all requirements to earn Scrum Developer (CSD) certification.
