Changes are possible. The course content is updated regularly.

This course requires a good knowledge of English for the certification exam.

After the course, you will quickly and confidently master the object-oriented programming language Microsoft Visual C#.NET and be able to develop complex solutions.

In addition, you are proficient in the Scrum process and support product owners in process management and improvement. You are able to organize and moderate Agile/Scrum meetings as well as the implementation of sprints and are familiar with Scrum artifacts.

IT apprentices, IT specialists, programmers and specialists with relevant professional experience.

Programmers with modern know-how find a wide range of applications in the growing IT fields. C# is used to create innovative web and business applications. A professional approach to C# is becoming increasingly natural when programming in Microsoft environments.

With Scrum, you will also learn a project and product management process model that was originally used for agile software development in particular, but is now also used in many other specialist areas. As a scalable project management and development method, it is used successfully in numerous large-scale projects with several hundred team members. The official certificate from Scrum.org provides you with internationally recognized proof of your qualifications as a Scrum Master.

Didactic concept

Your lecturers are highly qualified both professionally and didactically and will teach you from the first to the last day (no self-study system).

You will learn in effective small groups. The courses usually consist of 6 to 25 participants. The general lessons are supplemented by numerous practical exercises in all course modules. The practice phase is an important part of the course, as it is during this time that you process what you have just learned and gain confidence and routine in its application. The final section of the course involves a project, a case study or a final exam.
