Details
Large-Scale Scrum (LeSS) is a framework designed to decrease organizational complexity while scaling agile development methods across multiple teams. LeSS works with the principles, elements and purpose of Scrum and provides a framework to apply them on
a larger scale. Structural rules and guidelines are laid out to create ‘more with LeSS’, solving problems and challenges using simple solutions.
Certified LeSS Basics course is a basic introductory course that gives an overview of the LeSS framework and its foundational concepts and principles. You will get to understand the applications and their impact, and can decide whether LeSS is the best fit
for your organizational needs. The training is led by a certified LeSS practitioner who has significant experience in the field. On successful completion of the course, you will receive a course participation certificate.
