What is the Professional Scrum Developer course all about?
Professional Scrum Developer course is a unique and intensive five-day experience for software developers. The course guides teams on how to turn product requirements into potentially shippable increments of software using the Scrum framework, Visual Studio 2010, and modern software engineering practices. Attendees will work in self-organizing, self-managing teams using a common instance of Team Foundation Server 2010. (Professional Scrum Developer .NET -- students work in Visual Studio 2010 to develop Microsoft .NET applications)
