Course - Professional Scrum Master II | PSM II (Scrum.org accredited training course)
My course only had a few other people in it, this meant Ravi could be very attentive with us, he could take his time to explain things and could gauge our knowledge of different subjects of the course and pay attention to our weak points. Ravi was good fun and enthusiastic and I enjoyed the 2 days with him.
