Who Should Attend

Please refer to the job roles section.
Fluent Software Developers.
One to two non-current developers (e.g. a ScrumMaster or Product Owner) in each class. You need to have some development experience and to work as a developer in a team during class.

Prerequisites

This programme welcomes those with a background in software development, but prior knowledge of the specific tech stack is not required. While primarily aimed at fluent software developers, we also accommodate a limited number of non-current developers (e.g. ScrumMasters or Product Owners) with some development experience, as long as they actively participate as developers during the programme.
No prior experience with LeSS is necessary as the programme covers all essential concepts and practices.
