⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ I took a Scrum Master course and was completely impressed. Agile and Scrum are concepts that do not exist in a vacuum. Without real business contexts, and especially real software development experience, Agile doesn’t mean much. It was Jim’s ability to teach the material with his finger always on best practices that made the class a home run.

⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐  I took the Certified ScrumMaster class. Not only did Jim thoroughly understand the course material and know how to teach it well, he also has many real-world examples that enhanced my experience. I really enjoyed the class and learned a lot!
Barbara Kroczak, Senior Program Manager, Riverbed Technology

⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐  CSM training with Artisan was the best training that I have ever taken. The class was lively and interactive. They covered Agile fundamentals and material relevant to the CSM exam. They were not hesitant to take questions and had lots of examples from real world experience. I passed the CSM exam with an almost perfect score without help from any other sources.

⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐  I had the pleasure of attending a 2-day seminar on Agile and it was fantastic. If you are looking to improve your understanding of Agile from someone who has done it (not just someone who read it) for years, Artisan is the one. I have attended many other seminars but none as plain and simple. Most coaches add an unnatural aura to Agile as if it were some mystic and ancient magic. Artisan presents these concepts in a dispassionate yet highly precise manner.

⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐  Jim Schiel was the best instructor that I have experienced…EVER! Even in a fully online course, Jim was 1000% engaging, spending the majority of the course with the presentation minimized and talking to us face-to-face. His presence and experience are unparalleled….
Nick Ryan
⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐  I highly recommend any class taught by Jim; he is a dynamic, personable, and energetic trainer. The depth of his knowledge and personal career experiences are interwoven into the curriculum bringing it alive, which gets the class fully engaged in their own learning.

⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐  Jim is a fantastic instructor! The course with him was challenging and rewarding. He had an incremental way of teaching the course that starts with the fundamentals of Agile and Scrum, perfect for beginners! I enjoyed the group projects of creating a product that helped us to get a feel for what it would be like in this space. He is passionate and super knowledgeable about these topics and cares about his students, ensuring that you understand the material. I highly recommend Jim for all your certification, training, and consulting needs!

⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐   Jim was an excellent instructor.
The course content was thorough and the interaction with Jim and the others taking the course was great. I was very well prepared after this course to pass the certification.
Leila Kayl

⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Jim is a fantastic instructor, one of the very best I’ve had for sure (I attended his Scrum Product Owner and Scrum Master classes, 16h each). His broad and deep experience and expertise certainly contribute to his eloquence, and his personal touch help connect instantly, which is especially relevant in remote/online training. The pace, content, and depth of the training may appear slow and basic at first but don’t worry, it will quickly reach highs in a very engaging manner. Bottom line: I’m now applying concepts learned at work for the better good, and I would love to take the learning to the next level and dig into the Advanced Scrum Training. Thank you again Jim, please keep it up!

Bruno van de Werve, Cisco Systems, Inc

⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐  My department recently finished [Certified] Scrum Master training with Jim Schiel. Jim was extremely knowledgeable and patient with our group. The training process was very organized, and walked us through the material with great slides, examples, and discussion. I came out of the training with an excellent understanding of what is involved in facilitating/being part of scrums. We can’t wait to start implementing these principles. Thank you, Jim!
