  • Encertify Customer Speak
    I had taken the SMC certification training course which exceeded my expectations. The training was very good; in fact it was excellent. The references were made to the SBOK Guide and emphasis was laid on certain pages, chapters, and units. The language and diction made reading and listening easy and understandable. The case studies were very helpful as well as the chapter tests. The PowerPoint summaries and notes summaries makes it easy to understand. I would like to thank you Encertify for preparing me to get certified. I look forward to coming back for more certification courses.

    I had enrolled for the SMC Live Virtual Class program. Glad to have taken the program as it exceeded my expectations. The instructor was phenomenal. The overall performance of the instructor and his knowledge on the subject was excellent. The overall training and the course materials provided were also excellent. I really grasped the concepts and passed my exam today. I will be more than happy to recommend this training program to my colleagues and friends.

    I am happy to inform you that the Scrum Master Certified course, which I had taken, completely met my expectations. The courseware and the overall training were very good. What I really liked about the course is the way how the course materials was presented. It was in a non-technical format; spoke plainly assuming that the reader/viewer had little experience with the concepts prior to taking the course. Thus, makes it very easy to understand. Thank you for putting this course together. I will be only happy to recommend this course to my colleagues and friends.

  • Encertify Customer Speak
    The Scrum Master Certified course worked out very well and exceeded my expectations. The course led towards the SMC exam that I was comfortable to take in a very short time. The important points that were presented turned out to be the important points for certification and the reading list from the SBOK helped me out also. The course materials and the overall training were excellent. I will be more than happy to recommend this course to my colleagues and friends. Thanks again!

    The SMC class was very helpful for me to understand not only the Scrum Master responsibilities but the responsibilities of other Scrum Core Team members also. This class is a good start for anyone entering or wanting to improve their outcome in SDLC using Scrum. The course materials and the overall training were very good. I will be more than happy to recommend this course to my colleagues and friends. I took another Scrum course on another platform; however, it did not supply the proxy testing.

    The overall SMC training program was excellent and felt that it was a right course for someone who wants to be a Scrum Master. I liked the learning pace and the chapter tests, which is a part of the excellent course materials that were provided.

    The Scrum Agile training was a new insight for me having spent 45 years in traditional project management. As a lecturer and consultant in PM I am very excited to start applying my knowledge as a Scrum Master and embracing Agile project management. The two day Scrum Masters training course was excellent as well as the Fundamentals course, both of which prepared me well for the SMC exam (which was not so easy, by the way!)

  • Encertify Customer Speak
    The course materials were excellent, so was the entire training program. The structure of the course was very useful. The way the entire content and form were organized, it let us to learn quickly. I will recommend this course to all my friends and colleagues. Cheers!
