Course Schedule

Course Overview

Professional Scrum Master – AI Essentials (PSM-AI Essentials) course is created for Scrum Masters and Agile practitioners who want to work confidently with Artificial Intelligence in real delivery environments. Product development teams already rely on AI-powered tools for analysis, communication, automation, and insight generation. Scrum Masters play a central role in guiding teams through adoption, use, and responsible application of such tools.

This course builds a clear bridge between Scrum accountabilities and practical AI usage. The learning experience stays grounded in everyday Scrum Master work such as facilitation, coaching, stakeholder collaboration, and organisational improvement. Participants explore how AI supports these responsibilities without reducing the importance of human judgement, ethics, and transparency.

The course places strong emphasis on hands-on learning. Discussions, group exercises, and guided practice help learners understand how AI fits into Sprint events, team collaboration, and continuous improvement activities. The course content avoids technical depth that belongs to data science and instead concentrates on applied usage that Scrum Masters can use immediately.

Professional Scrum Master – AI Essentials also includes a free attempt at the globally recognised Professional Scrum Master AI Essentials certification assessment. The certification validates practical understanding of AI concepts and their application within Scrum roles.

This training suits professionals who want to stay relevant, support high-performing Scrum Teams, and guide organisations through responsible AI adoption. The Scrum Master of the future understands AI as a capability that supports people, teams, and outcomes. This course prepares learners for that responsibility with clarity and confidence.

What is a Professional Scrum Master - AI Essentials Course?

Professional Scrum Master – AI Essentials (PSM-AI Essentials) is an applied learning course that helps Scrum Masters and Agile Coaches understand how Artificial Intelligence supports their role, teams, and organisations. The course explains AI concepts in clear, practical language and connects them directly to Scrum principles, values, and accountabilities.

The training focuses on how Scrum Masters use AI as a support system rather than a replacement for human thinking. Participants learn where AI adds value, where human judgement remains critical, and how both work together in day-to-day Scrum activities. The course structure ensures learners can immediately relate AI usage to real work scenarios such as Sprint Planning, Daily Scrum, Sprint Review, and Retrospectives.

The course runs as an interactive one-day course when delivered in person. Live virtual delivery may be split across shorter sessions to support focus and participation. The format encourages discussion, reflection, and practice instead of passive listening. Exercises allow participants to work with generative AI tools, analyse outputs, and refine prompts based on Scrum needs.

Key AI concepts covered include machine learning, deep learning, generative AI, and agentic AI. These topics are explained from a user perspective rather than a technical engineering view. The aim is to help Scrum Masters understand what AI can do, what its limitations are, and how to use it responsibly within teams and organisations.

The course also explores how AI influences organisational systems. Scrum Masters often act as change agents, helping teams and leaders adopt new practices. The training provides guidance on introducing AI safely, addressing concerns related to ethics, data privacy, and security, and building trust across stakeholders.

A free attempt at the Professional Scrum Master AI Essentials certification assessment is included with the course. The assessment measures understanding of AI concepts, ethical considerations, and practical application within Scrum contexts. Learners can attempt the assessment after training, using the knowledge and examples covered during the session.

Professional Scrum Master – AI Essentials supports Scrum Masters who want to strengthen facilitation, coaching, and service to the organisation while keeping pace with modern delivery expectations.

Who is This Course for

Professional Scrum Master – AI Essentials is intended for professionals who already work with Scrum and want to apply Artificial Intelligence in a practical, responsible manner. The course assumes familiarity with Scrum roles, events, and artefacts, and builds on that foundation by introducing AI as a daily working aid.

Scrum Masters

Scrum Masters benefit the most from this training. The course supports those who facilitate Scrum events, coach teams, remove impediments, and serve the organisation. AI tools help Scrum Masters prepare sessions, analyse team data, improve communication, and support continuous improvement. The training shows how these tools fit naturally into existing responsibilities.

Agile Coaches

Agile Coaches who guide multiple teams or work with leadership gain value from understanding how AI supports coaching conversations and organisational learning. The course highlights how AI assists observation, pattern recognition, and preparation while keeping coaching interactions human and ethical.

Agile Leaders and Delivery Managers

Leaders responsible for delivery improvement, flow, and team effectiveness find the course useful. AI usage supports decision-making, reporting clarity, and stakeholder communication. The course explains how Scrum Masters and leaders collaborate in introducing AI across teams.

Team Facilitators and Change Agents

Professionals who support workshops, retrospectives, and cross-team collaboration benefit from AI-assisted facilitation techniques. The course demonstrates how AI supports agenda design, question framing, and outcome summaries.

Experience level expectations

Participants should have practical experience working in or with Scrum Teams. Prior Scrum Master training or certification supports learning, as the course does not reteach Scrum basics. The focus stays on applying AI within an existing Scrum understanding.

Why Choose tryScrum

Benefits

Professional Scrum Master – AI Essentials delivers practical benefits that support daily work, team effectiveness, and long-term career growth for Scrum professionals.

Stronger Scrum Event facilitation

AI supports preparation for Sprint Planning, Reviews, and Retrospectives. Scrum Masters learn how to use AI to design agendas, frame questions, and summarise outcomes, allowing more focus on people and interaction during sessions.

Improved coaching conversations

Coaching requires observation, listening, and thoughtful questioning. AI assists with reflection prompts, pattern identification, and follow-up ideas while leaving judgement and empathy with the Scrum Master.

Better team collaboration and clarity

AI tools help improve written communication, shared understanding, and documentation quality. Teams benefit from clearer Sprint goals, refined backlog discussions, and well-structured feedback loops.

Time efficiency in routine work

Preparation, reporting, and analysis tasks often consume significant time. AI usage reduces effort spent on repetitive activities, freeing Scrum Masters to spend more time with teams and stakeholders.

Enhanced decision support

Scrum Masters gain support in identifying trends, risks, and improvement opportunities. AI assists in analysing qualitative and quantitative inputs without replacing empirical decision-making.

Confidence in ethical AI usage

Learners develop awareness of data sensitivity, bias, and security considerations. This understanding supports responsible guidance for teams and leaders.

Increased professional relevance

AI knowledge strengthens the Scrum Master role in modern organisations. Learners position themselves as informed facilitators and change agents rather than passive observers of technology adoption.

    The training content is great and instance quoted are very close to real time practices. Arun Vignesh (our trainer) was too good in his skill. He was able to empathise the participants queries and was able to clarify everyone's query in an efficient and understandable manner. This program can be taken by current PO's and also blooming and potential PO's. This training set the context of the Big Picture and enlightened how a PO can align himself/herself to add value to a product. Great job Tryscrum

      Great Experience with Mr. Arun in PSPO Training Classes! It's really a great experience to have the Professional Scrum Product Owner (PSPO) training classes by Mr. Arunvignesh Ramakrishnan. Mr. Arun not only covered the lessons to pass the PSPO exam but also tried to prepare us for real-life Scrum - something he called "Scrum+". Besides, he shared valuable experiences to get insights & awesome examples to illustrate a clear picture of the "True Scrum Scenario".
