Professional Scrum master II
An advanced Scrum Master class
Course details
Professional Scrum Master II (PSM II) is a 2-day Scrum.org certified advanced Scrum Master course designed to support Scrum Masters in their professional development. The PSM II course is intended for Scrum Masters with at least one year of experience who are looking to grow their knowledge and abilities as a Scrum Master.
This course is one step in that journey. The course also includes a free attempt at the globally recognized Professional Scrum Master II (PSM II) certification exam.
Unlike the Professional Scrum Master (PSM) course which focuses on how to use Scrum, the Scrum framework and the role of the Scrum Master, PSM II is an advanced course helping students to understand the stances that characterize an effective Scrum Master and servant-leader while diving deep into how they serve the Development Team, Product Owner and organization. The course then teaches students about related practices and skills to enable them to have the right types of conversations and how to apply them to become better Scrum Masters.

What you will learn during the PSM course
Over the 2 days, students will learn about areas critical to growing as a successful Scrum Master such as how the principles and values of Scrum help guide Scrum Masters in the decisions they make and how the Scrum Master can help change the environment of Scrum Teams, creating an environment for agility to thrive. The Scrum Master role is complex. That’s why often, a Scrum Master must be able to apply different stances in order to be effective, such as:
- Teacher
- Coach & Mentor
- Facilitator
- Change Agent
As a Scrum Master, being able to identify, and effectively apply, which stance would benefit your team the most depending on the situation or circumstance could prove to be the key to the success of your team.
As a Scrum Master, part of your role is to help management and other stakeholders across your organization understand the benefits of Scrum and Agile. Therefore, it is imperative that you have the information and background that is needed to gain credibility in order to be an effective change agent. Throughout the class I will provide stories, exercises, facilitation techniques (such as “Liberating Structures”), resources and more.
There will also be time in class for me to provide coaching on challenges that you and your classmates may be experiencing today or may in the future.

We want you to become certified for the training course you have participated in. However, we cannot guarantee you will pass. That’s why we have set up certification insurance, and you will get it for free:
- If you have done your first attempt within two weeks after participating in the training course but you didn’t pass the assessment, the trainer will personally give you feedback on the topics you scored the least. This will help you a lot to prepare for the free second attempt
- If you don’t pass the second attempt, you can participate in the next upcoming training course practically for free. We will only ask you for a small contribution to cover the costs for the training venue, food and drinks (in case of an in-class training course), and the certification fee. This way you can validate your knowledge and understanding and close any final gaps.
