Facilitator: Victor Loke, MCC, CST® - Board & Executive Coach Course Overview This two-day interactive workshop introduces the practical foundations of effective product development in Scrum. Participants will explore how Developers work within a Scrum Team to build architecture and design incrementally, write tests before code, integrate continuously, and turn Product Backlog Items into usable Increments of value. Through discussions and hands-on technical exercises, participants will experience how sound engineering practices enable teams to deliver working software in small, safe, frequent slices. We will also visit how AI-augmented development and Specifi cation-Driven Development are beginning to reshape these practices, setting the stage and preparing participants for where the craft is heading next. The course is aligned with the Certifi ed Scrum Developer® (CSD®) learning objectives, but is offered independently as an uncertifi ed community learning initiative. Who should attend Current or aspiring Developers working on Scrum Teams Engineers looking to strengthen their understanding of Scrum and agile engineering practices Technical Leads and Architects wanting a practical, hands-on grounding in incremental design Agile practitioners who work closely with development teams QA Engineers and Testers interested in Test-Driven Development and continuous integration Anyone curious about how AI-assisted and agentic coding tools are changing technical practices Prerequisites None. Requirements A laptop will be needed for the Scrum simulation on Day 2. You may share a laptop in your groups. 1 Course Outline Day 1 AM — Scrum & Developers Foundations Why Agile?
