This was my second course with Powered by Teams and I 100% recommend. I believe Bernie is probably the best teacher I had and his lessons really made me change the way I work and even made me enjoy my work more! Thank you!
Thanks, very much, Inès! We're honored you chose to continue your exposure to Scrum and Agile with Powered By Teams.
Bernie is a fantastic instructor. His CSPO course blends lectures, real world examples, tips, and interactive exercises with the small class size necessary to give every student the attention they need. It was one of the most engaging courses I've ever had the pleasure of taking and I've already started looking into which of Bernie's courses I'll take next.
Thanks, Greg! Be sure to keep an eye out for our Leadership course coming in 2025.
Bernie Maloney provides excellent practical application cases and is extremely engaging.
Excellent instructor and group class exercises
Amazing learning experience! I recommend this class and certification to really take your knowledge and praxis on agile project management to the next level, especially with Bernie Maloney as a coach, who showed extreme experience, fun and empathy, and really knows how to help you digest complex information. Special thanks to Bernie!
Gracias, Gaston!
Taking an in-person course at Stanford with Bernie Maloney, I know how good he was so as soon as I saw his name I registered this course with him. His examples, knowledge, and experience is unmatched with anyone else I have taken agile courses with. I highly recommend him to anyone.
Thanks very much! Folks eager to study additional material with me are a terrific endorsement. I'm grateful.
I recently completed the Scrum Master certification course, and it was an outstanding experience from start to finish. The instructor was incredibly relatable and approachable, making the learning process enjoyable and engaging. His extensive experience in the field was evident, as he provided valuable real-world examples that helped solidify the concepts being taught. What truly set this course apart was the instructor's great personality. He made complex topics easy to understand and kept the sessions lively and interactive. I left the course feeling confident in my new skills and ready to apply them in my professional life. I highly recommend this certification course to anyone looking to become a Scrum Master.
Thanks so much for these compliments, Dawn! We're thrilled you're feeling confident with what you learned. We aim to help people make such breakthroughs in performance.
Learning is fun! Loved the course. Lots of collaboration with fellow coursemates, freedom to ask questions, and share real-world experiences. Bernie does a great job at cultivating a psychological safe space while adhering to learning objectives. Bonus! He provides ancillary learning materials like links to articles, case studies, a recommended book list, etc.
Thanks, so much, Elle. Happy you found the course worthwhile!
I recently completed the CSPO course, and I must say it was an excellent experience. The instructor, Bernie Maloney, was exceptional in his approach to teaching. What I Liked About the Course: Bernie's Dedication: Bernie is always willing to confirm that the whole group is on the same page and ensures that nobody is falling behind. His commitment to making sure everyone understands the material is truly commendable. Real Situations Cases: The course includes real-world scenarios that are incredibly beneficial, especially for someone like me who is not currently working in an organization implementing agile methodologies. These cases provide practical insights and help bridge the gap between theory and practice. Interactive and Engaging Learning: Bernie has a remarkable ability to use participants’ questions as springboards for introducing techniques and best practices. This interactive approach not only addressed individual queries but also enriched the overall learning experience. His ability to connect theory with practical application helped me gain a clearer picture of what it takes to be an effective Product Owner. Overall, the CSPO course, with Bernie as the instructor, was an invaluable experience. Whether you are new to agile or looking to deepen your knowledge, this course provides the tools and insights needed to excel as a Product Owner.
Marco, thank you very much for this detailed recommendation. I'm very happy you found a lot of value in the experience.
Bernie's approach to training went above and beyond expectations and made the class very interactive and engaging. Not only were the learning objectives covered, but what was invaluable was all the real-world examples, as well as tools and methods that can be leveraged with stakeholders. The collaborative exercises also gave ample opportunity to build your network with other students even in a virtual setting.
Thanks so much, Geoffrey! Glad you appreciate all the bonuses built in to the course and delivery.
Bernie Maloney is a fantastic and engaging instructor, he made the material easy to understand.
Bernie was very knowledgeable and made class entertaining and engaging. Our entire team passed the exam on the first try.
Good content, great exercises and breakout room conversations.
Thanks, Sue!
Bernie kept the class moving along and interesting for the whole duration. Using Scrum as both the method of teaching and the subject matter was really useful.
Bernie Maloney is a True Servant Leader, the CSPO class I took with Bernie was informative, challenging, and rewarding. Bernie will push you to think creatively, at times it may not feel comfortable but that is exactly where your learning and growth begins.
Great CSPO 4-day class w/Bernie Maloney! I had the pleasure of getting CSPO certified over 4 days last week...I've been through a lot of Agile trainings over the years & I can't say enough good things about this one. Bernie Maloney (from Powered By Teams) was engaging, had amazing background & stories to share, covered all the material very well, and was very organized but still allowed for customization/Agile adjustments based on who was in the class. The tools and materials used were great & PDFs of them/our work were provided so we could concentrate on learning during the class. Finally, Bernie offers so much support for life if you take his classes (15-30 min convos if you're stuck on something, a freebie lunch & learn etc.). I know I'll be calling him up at some point in my career to "get unstuck" on a problem! He has such great perspective, experience & charisma.
Thanks so much, Christine! We aim for everyone to have an engaging and impactful experience like you did in every one of our workshops, both public and private.
Great course content lead by and excellent and engaging instructor (Bernie Maloney) with fun humour. The entire course was carried out as an scrum event, wonderful insight tor he methodology with great example and engaging teamwork. Learnt a great deal and cannot wait to apply the learning in real life!
Thanks, Afsana!
I recently had the pleasure of attending a Certified Scrum Product Owner (CSPO) course facilitated by Bernie Maloney, and I can't recommend it (or him) highly enough. From the outset, Bernie demonstrated an exceptional ability to deliver the course content in a way that was not only great but also timely and incredibly helpful. His expertise in the subject matter was evident, as he skillfully kept the course on track, ensuring that every moment was packed with valuable learning experiences. Bernie's engaging teaching style and interactive approach kept the entire class moving while turning complex topics into easy-to-understand concepts. It's rare to find an instructor who can balance professionalism with the ability to make learning fun and engaging, but Bernie does it effortlessly. His course was an educational and enjoyable experience that exceeded my expectations. For anyone looking to deepen their understanding of the course material Bernie teaches, I wholeheartedly recommend enrolling in his course. You'll come away enriched and ready to apply what you've learned.
Thanks very much, Grayson! Like I mention early on, I aim for our workshops to be the most engaging and impactful experience participants have had - period. And, I appreciate you laughing at my bad jokes.
A truly interactive course split across 4 days, which was the perfect way to balance it alongside work. Bernie's passion and knowledge shone through in every lesson, as well as the sheer amount of preparation he put into each class. He found creative ways to not only teach us about Agile and Product Owner principles, but to integrate useful tips and tricks that we could take away to our teams. I really enjoyed getting to know and work with my classmates - and learning from the perspectives they brought from a range of different roles and industries. If you want to sit and copy from a whiteboard, this is not the class for you... if you want to actively participate, challenge yourself, and be supported in your journey - it definitely is.
