About the course

Modern Scrum teams often look to Kanban to improve their workflow. This course explores the ways Scrum is enhanced by integrating the essential Kanban practices and metrics.

People are practicing Kanban to improve the flow and quality of work. The Kanban strategy complements Scrum with pragmatic techniques that improve transparency and continuous improvement.

Scrum.org collaborated with Daniel Vacanti in the creation of this course. In 2007, Daniel helped to develop the Kanban Method for knowledge work, including managing the world’s first project implementation of Kanban.

In this class, you will learn the principles of flow in the context of Scrum for more efficient, predictable, and effective outcomes.

Learning Outcomes

Students will learn how to optimize their workflow by adding Kanban practices and metrics to Scrum:

Visualizing the Sprint Backlog workflow on a Kanban board.
Limiting Work in Progress (WIP).
Actively managing work items in progress.
Continually inspecting and adapting the way the team uses flow optimization.
Cycle Time, Work-in-Progress, Item Aging, Throughput.

Who Should Attend

Organizations using DevOps, Continuous Integration and Continuous Delivery (CI/CD) will find adding flow to their application of Scrum to be a natural complement.

After taking the course, you will have an opportunity to validate that you understand core Kanban topics. We will invite you to take an online assessment that evaluates your understanding and provides you with guidance on areas to improve. This exclusive assessment is only available to class participants.
