Jeanette Sanders
Risk Management & Insurance Consultant at York Risk Services
Group

This was a terrific course with tons of training aids, games, slides,
videos, etc. The trainer was very much in tune with the participants
and was very adaptive and agile with his approach to the class.

Dorothy Narkinsky
Senior Director of Operations at Rocket Insights

Great information and great structure. The pace of the second day
was much more aggressive but the first day was critical to people,
without as much Agile experience. Incredibly effective training by a
down to earth instructor.

Kushal Jirafe
Manager, Product Management for Digital Channels at Fiserv

Simplilearn provided me with one of the best trainers of CSM.

He explained the concepts in a fun way which was very easy to
understand and because of his guidance, I was able to clear the CSM
certification with 94.3 percent.

Anand Gurumurthi
Director Software Engineering at Salesforce

The training was absolutely great. I have been doing Scrum for more
than three years but got a lot of areas clarified. I learned many things
that I would like to try with my team. I would highly recommend this
course to everyone who is part of an Agile team.
