Managing Agile Scrum Projects in SharePoint – The Perfect Match!

Webcast

Time: 9am PST, 12noon EST, 5pm UK time

Scrum is an agile and iterative approach to product development which encourages the breakdown of ‘projects’ into finite periods called Sprints of the same length (normally 20-30 days but it can vary) with a defined deliverable due at the end of the Sprint.
This webcast will:
Explain what Scrum is all about, so you will understand sprints, stories, backlogs, tasks, burn down charts, etc.
Walk you through a Scrum Template built in SharePoint, based on the Scrum Alliance Scrum Guide that has all the features necessary to run a Scrum project.
