Scrumban (Scrum with Kanban)

( Duration: 3 Days )

Scrumban is a combination of Scrum and Kanban.This Scrumban training course begins with a basic introduction to Scrum, then moves on to teaching how delivering software functionality using Kanban is radically different from traditional waterfall project management. Rather than plan, instruct and direct, Kanban utilizes a Lean “pull” implementation to guide the work through the process. Using Scrum and Kanban together will enhance your organization’s agility, improve the visibility of work flow, and will provide greater transparency for problems that inhibit throughput. The course concludes with a lesson on how to implement Scrumban, and all of the controls and reporting necessary to monitor the flow of work. Prior exposure to Agile software development framework is recommended.

By attending Scrumban workshop, delegates will learn to:

  • Identify the origins and fundamentals of Agile.
  • Indicate how Scrum works, the roles involved, and the artifacts needed.
  • Discover the origins of Kanban and the theory behind it.
  • Distinguish how Kanban and Scrum coexist in software development.
  • Determine how to complete a “Value Stream Mapping” and what to include.
  • Recognize throughput and how to organize the work.
  • Associate how to manage the process and the input queue.
  • Explain options for tuning the Kanban implementation.
  • Generalize relevance and implementation of key metrics.

The Scrumban class is ideal for:

  • Developers and developer teams looking to use Scrum/Kanban tools effectively.
