Nothing but THE BEST ONLINE CLASS SECTION I ever attended, if I can give Don Patti 10 stars I will because I was new to scrum and it shows in my class responses the first day but after that, on the second day scrum became more easier and I can boast that after the class I am where I need to be but all praise goes to Don Parti explanations, videos and the way he grouped the class makes it fun and helpful. It helps me a lot and I responded to everything like a scrum professional on the second day with no fears or worries like the first day. All I can say is THANK YOU Don Patti ????????

I believe that I've had training now with this trainer a few times. Perfect mix of preparing us for the test as well as discussing real world situations. I also appreciate the review as it's been a few years since I attained my SA5.0, and working day to day you forget the principles.
Laura Hampton
Good mixture of theory and real-world application by DP affords anyone, including me, without first-hand experience to really understand the framework and to take initial steps to incorporate in every day efforts.
VJ
The amount of material covered in two days of class exceeded my expectations. Very happy with the delivery of the material and prep emails received. Wonderful job Don & David! Best, VJ
Dale Martin
Nice job! Well organized, good tempo, good reinforcement of content tied into real-life experiences. Donald also made the class fun with his sense of humor. I definitely would recommend this class and Donald.
Chelseay
Don was kind, funny, informative, and attentive. I could tell he is a SME in this subject, and he offered strong, constructive feedback throughout the course. The course was interactive and had a solid mix of instructor-led delivery, breakout sessions, and interactive quizzing to prepare for the exam.
Marcy Kravit
I wanted to express my sincere appreciation for Donald Patti and his expertise in teaching the Scrum class this past weekend. I passed the exam today and was very confident thanks to him! His “hands on approach,” detailed course materials and interactive learning style made it a lot of fun! Thanks again Donald! Marcy Kravit
Sílvia Baptista

This was a wonderfully interactive, informative and overall great course. Don Patti was a great instructor, he made everything easy to understand and fun. I would definitely take another class with him and Grow-Lean. So happy I took this certification!!
Ramiro
Don was a great instructor. He knew the material exceptionally well and he could teach it in a very clear and enjoyable manner. I will probably look for other classes he offers that I can take.
Kyle Burns
Amazing introduction to scrum and agile frameworks. As a part of a start-up, we needed solutions that could scale and provide the same agility we needed to innovate. DP at Grow lean kept the class engaged, wasn't afraid to provide feedback and correction in a humorous and meaningful way, and inspired students to pursue and agile mindset.
Nichelle
The information and exercises were clear and concise. It was presented in a way that made it easy to understand and apply. All of your questions are answered and you feel confident taking the exam. Don was a great teacher!

Destiny
DP was a great teacher! He is extremely knowledgeable and really made me feel comfortable to ask questions. He thoroughly explained the subjects and I walked away with a better understanding of Scrum and other frameworks as well. I would definitely take this class again! He even gives out gifts - thanks for the play-doh DP!
Feroza
I really loved the class structure and how engaging the teacher, Don Patti was. He did a great job of incorporating activities with Miro and quizzes with Kahoot an it really enhanced my learning.
Dennis Parent
Don did a great job explaining the basics of Agile in an engaging way. I followed the guidance he gave and got 100 on the exam. The test itself was not too difficult and the skipping #1 trick worked just fine. Thank You for all the help.
Jackie
Don was an excellent trainer who kept all the students engaged. I enjoyed the interactions and games we played on Miro as teams. That to me helped me better understand the topic at hand. He had good jokes that made us laugh to lighten the mood/day. I would definitely refer a friend to his class because he made sure to address the topics, we wanted to learn more about at length.
Lisa
Don Patti was an amazing instructor. He immersed us into our learning through practice scrum situations. When we were not sure about something, he never made us feel "dumb". He was patient and re-directed his lesson until we understood. I really enjoyed his class!
