Things in the skills development area have changed in some interesting ways. We have room for a few more people who want to contribute to our proposed session in Ann Arbor.
The workshop schedule has been changed owing to changes in the environment. It will be held for three days, Tuesday October 13 through Thursday October 15, in Ann Arbor. There is no charge for the workshop, and you’re on your own for travel and housing.
As this will be a workshop, it isn’t possible to predict exactly what will happen. Our purposes include, but are not limited to:
- Gain a deeper understanding of the dimensions of skill required of team members on Agile projects;
- Elaborate and/or modify the “Seven Pillars” idea to define a framework for team member education for Agile projects.
- Discuss and consider recommendations to Scrum Alliance, Agile Alliance, and the universe at large regarding team member education for Agile projects.
- Discuss and consider group and individual actions regarding the scrum.org and related developments. Decide how we should speak to this issue, and where, so as to guide the community in the best possible direction.
- Discuss and/or demonstrate specific training examples or course materials.
If you would like to attend, and can make a firm commitment, please write an email to Chet’s training address, training@hendricksonXP.com. We’ll have light continental breakfast and snacks, we’ll be on our own for lunch, and travel and accommodations are up to you. We have arranged for discounted rooms: we’ll let you know when you sign up, and here are the links. (Please don’t sign up for a room until you know whether we are able to accomodate you in the sessions. King Room. Double Room.)
