i did an CSM course last week. Trainer was Roman Pichler, whom you might know from his german Scrum book. even though i was a little disappointed with too little time for Q&A and having read his book, this course does not bring additional theoretical knowledge, it was a good experience.

• first of all, Roman is a good instructor. he manages to keep the level of attention very high by varying methods and presentation.
• second, listening to his experience and getting some insight of applied Scrum in other than the own context is definitely worth the time.
• last but not least, exchanging experiences with the other students helps a lot not to duplicate their mistakes.
