What Clients Have to Say
With years of experience delivering Agile Training to clients of all sizes, we have consistently received high grades.
- I attended the Scrum Master training class that was offered by Todd through Guidance Technology. Todd made the class very interesting by providing real-life scenarios and examples where agile methodologies were effective. He challenged our thought process by asking us how we would have approached a use case differently which made the training much more useful and enjoyable. I would highly recommend the training offering provided by Guidance Technology

- Todd recently presented an insightful, engaging and well-rounded Agile training class, with a focus on Product Owner. Todd's enthusiasm and real world experiences provided helpful guidance to myself and our group on how and when to best leverage Agile in our diversified fast-paced environment. He is extremely knowledgeable in Agile project management. This was a recipe for a fun, high-energy, team building well presented detailed course. I am recommending Todd's courses to anyone seeking Scrum Master certification or knowledge on Agile project management.

- I attended a Scrum training presented by Todd in Oct of 2015. The training was very well conducted and very to the point. Todd covered the basics of Scrum. He has in-depth knowledge of Agile and Scrum that helped us clarifying lot of misconceptions. I would recommend Todd to everyone who wanted to learn Scrum.
- I recently attended Todd's "Product Owner and User Story" Training and was thoroughly impressed. Todd made the class engaging and fun. While I am typically one to shy away from ice breakers and team building activities, the "Sprint Game" was a blast and an excellent demonstration of the material we had learned in this Agile/Scrum training. Todd is very skilled at taking the experiences and input of the group and tying them back to the lessons he is teaching.

- I recently participated in the Scrum for Product Owners two day training which Todd lead, and I was very pleased. Todd is very engaging and has a great wealth of knowledge and experience in Scrum and it's implementation. I have some prior experience in Scrum and Agile, and would recommend this class to anyone looking to enhance their knowledge-base or perfect scrum skills. That being said I think Todd did a great job engaging everyone in the class even with many different levels of agile experience. Highly recommend this training and Mr.Kamens.
- I recently attended Todd Kamens' 2 day course on the Product Owner’s role within agile. It was a very well constructed class and Todd was able to keep us all engaged through real life examples from his past projects. The materials were very much relevant to the work I currently perform as an agile BA. As such, this course gave me better insight as to how I could foster a more effective relationship with my product owners going forward. I would highly recommend this class to my colleagues and anyone wanting basic knowledge of Agile.
