Course Description

Scrum Foundations for New Team Members: How Scrum Works Day-to-Day is a practical ebook course for anyone joining an Agile team and wanting to contribute with confidence from the first sprint. Designed for business administration and project management contexts, it explains how Scrum actually runs in real workplaces, not just in theory, so you can understand expectations, collaborate smoothly, and help deliver valuable outcomes.

You will learn how the flow of a sprint turns product ideas into actionable work through a well-managed product backlog and clear sprint goals. The course shows how Scrum accountabilities work in practice across the Product Owner, Scrum Master, and Developers, and how these roles partner to make priorities visible, reduce uncertainty, and keep delivery moving. You will also build a strong understanding of Scrum artifacts and commitments, including the product backlog, sprint backlog, and increment, so you can track progress, communicate status effectively, and support transparency.

As you progress, you will connect daily execution to better planning and forecasting. You will practice user stories and learn how to write and split them so they are understandable, testable, and ready for delivery. You will see how estimation basics like relative sizing support forecasting without overpromising, and how sprint planning creates a realistic plan around the sprint goal. The daily Scrum becomes a practical checkpoint for inspecting progress and adjusting work, while collaboration techniques such as swarming, pairing, and managing work in progress help teams finish work instead of starting too much.

The course also clarifies quality expectations through the definition of done, making done unambiguous and reducing rework. You will understand how the sprint review validates the increment with stakeholders and updates direction based on feedback, and how the sprint retrospective strengthens teamwork and delivery each cycle. Finally, you will learn to recognize common pitfalls for new Scrum teams and respond with simple, effective adjustments that protect focus and value.
