CSM® · Certified ScrumMaster® · 2 days · Helsinki
For the people who build a team that succeeds.
You’re not coming to sit through a lecture on what Scrum is. You’re coming to take it into your own hands — your team, your environment, your challenges.
Public calendar in Finnish — bring three colleagues or more and we can run this in English. Same trainer, same materials.
CSM® · 1.–2.10.2026 Helsinki

01 · Recognise this?
The team is working — but something keeps catching.
- 01The team keeps working, but something keeps eating into the flow — and you can't get a grip on it. Every standup leaves the same feeling: we took on too much again.
- 02You're driving change essentially on your own. Everyone nods that something should change — and then the day-to-day pulls them straight back into the old groove.
- 03You're not always sure where your own energy belongs. You keep everyone happy and clear the path for everyone else's work — and burn yourself out doing it.
02 · For you if…
This is your course.
- You're stepping into the Scrum Master role, or weighing it up — and you want to know concretely what the work actually involves.
- You already lead a team but want a sharper line around what is your job and what isn't — and why.
- You carry the same responsibility under a different title (manager, specialist, lead) and keep seeing the same situations recur in the team — you're looking for a way to get a grip on them.
- You're a consultant or coach working with teams, and you want a senior-level certification behind your craft.
03 · What you take home
Five things that change how you work.
01
Where the Scrum Master's time belongs
What's your job, what's the team's, what's the manager's. When that line is clear, the pointless meetings thin out — and you stop burning out doing other people's work.
Connects to: SM Accountabilities, servant-leadership stance
02
How to get the team to see what you see
Concrete ways to bring the sticking points into the open — so the team recognises them itself, instead of you carrying them alone.
Connects to: visualisation, retrospective facilitation
03
What to do when something snags
What to step into and what to leave. How to ask when the urge is to advise. And when the issue simply isn't yours to fix.
Connects to: impediment removal, decision-authority awareness
04
Scrum as a framework, not a cure
When Scrum is the right choice and when it isn't. What problem it actually answers — and what is solved more lightly without it.
Connects to: "if Scrum were a cure, what would it treat", Cynefin perspective
05
Practical tools for your own week
Sprint cadence, facilitating the events, making work visible. Concrete things you can try as early as next week.
Connects to: Sprint events, work visibility, facilitation techniques

Role, accountability, framework
- ·The Scrum Master's role and accountability in the organisation — what it means in practice

- ·Highlights of the day: your own situation mirrored against the theory
Day 2
Practice, facilitation, boundaries

- ·When not to use Scrum — and what you reach for instead
- ·Practical tools and practices for both remote and in-person work
- ·Preparing for certification and how the exam works
05 · After the course you…
Stop wearing yourself out doing other people’s work.
- You know where your energy belongs and where it doesn't — and you stop trying to do other people's work.
- You recognise the team's recurring sticking points and get them into the open for others too.
- You can explain what a Scrum Master does so that your colleagues and your manager understand it.
- You can tell the situations where Scrum is the right tool from the ones where something else fits better.
- You back your craft with the Scrum Alliance CSM® certification.

09 · FAQ
Most common questions
- Do I need previous Scrum experience?
- No. The course works both for those starting from scratch and for those who have already led teams and want a clearer structure for what they do.
- What's included in the price?
- Training materials, breakfast, lunch and afternoon refreshments, the Scrum Alliance CSM® certification, and a two-year Scrum Alliance membership.
- Is the course remote or in person?
- Public courses in Helsinki are run in person — experiential learning needs the same room. A company-specific course can also be run remotely.
- Can I transfer my seat to another person or another date?
- Yes. You can move your seat to the next course or hand it to a colleague, free of charge.
- Is there a group discount?
- Yes — there's a discount for a group of three or more. Get in touch and we'll work out the details.
