Professional Scrum with Kanban Training (PSK)
Many Scrum Teams work hard but struggle to deliver value predictably. Work piles up, dependencies slow down flow and teams lose focus by taking on too much at once. The result is waiting times, context switching and less energy spent on actually finishing work.
The Professional Scrum with Kanban (PSK) training from Scrum.org shows how Scrum and Kanban complement each other. You will learn how to apply Kanban practices within Scrum without changing the framework. The focus is not on doing more work, but on improving flow, transparency and predictability.
During the training you will explore how to visualise work more effectively, manage Work In Progress (WIP), surface bottlenecks and use flow metrics to make better decisions. You will also learn how Scrum Teams can use Kanban to get faster feedback, manage dependencies more effectively and keep improving continuously.
Through theory, practical examples and interactive exercises, you will develop a hands-on approach to delivering more value with fewer disruptions. This will help your team work in a more predictable, effective and focused way within complex Agile environments.
Who is this training for?
This training is designed for professionals who want to increase the effectiveness of Scrum Teams by making flow more visible and easier to manage.
You will get the most from this training if you work as a Scrum Master, Product Owner, Agile Coach, team lead, manager or Scrum Team member and are looking for ways to make work more predictable, reduce bottlenecks and deliver value faster.
The training is suitable both for experienced Scrum practitioners and for professionals who already work with Kanban and want to better understand how the two approaches can reinforce each other.
Or to put it simply: you want to spend less time managing work and more time actually delivering value.
What you will do during the training
During the training you will learn how Scrum and Kanban work together to improve the flow of work and deliver value more predictably. You will explore how to visualise work, manage Work In Progress (WIP) and surface bottlenecks that slow the team down.
You will also learn how to use flow metrics to make better decisions about planning, capacity and process improvement. You will gain insight into cycle times, wait times and predictability, so teams can learn faster and keep improving.
Through interactive exercises and practical examples, you will experience first-hand how Kanban practices can be applied within Scrum without changing the framework. You will develop practical tools to improve focus, manage dependencies more effectively and speed up value delivery.
After this training
After completing the training, you will understand how Scrum and Kanban complement each other and know how to improve flow without changing the Scrum framework. You will be able to actively manage Work In Progress (WIP), identify bottlenecks and use flow metrics to make better decisions about planning, capacity and process improvement.
You will also have a clearer understanding of how predictability, transparency and continuous improvement contribute to better outcomes for teams, clients and organisations. This will put you in a stronger position to help Scrum Teams deliver value faster, with more focus and fewer disruptions.
You can also become part of the Connected Movement community, where professionals share experiences, insights and practical examples around Scrum, Kanban, Agile, Product Management and organisational change.
