SCRUMstudy's Introduction to Scrum Course Secures 10,000 Members in First Month
Phoenix, AZ (PRWEB) November 27, 2013 -- The initiative generated immediate interest with over 10,000 members signing up within the first month—far more than even the SCRUMstudy team had imagined. What worked for the course was word-of-mouth publicity. More than 80% of members have rated the course “excellent” or “very good” in the automated feedback system which is integrated with the course. Almost all of them recommended the course to others.
It’s not hard to see why. There are 12 videos that explain the key aspects of Scrum in an easy-to-understand manner. There are 2 mobile apps about Agile and Scrum, as well as an online case study app that guides a student through an interactive case study that demonstrates how Scrum can be used in a real-life scenario. The first chapter of the definitive guide to Scrum—A Guide to the Scrum Body of Knowledge (SBOK™ Guide)—is also included in the course. After completing the course, one can get a course completion certificate and 10 PMI PDUs by successfully passing an online exam. And all this is absolutely free because SCRUMstudy’s objective is to spread awareness about Scrum and help more people improve their project performance using this framework.
