I had the pleasure of taking my CSM training course under Rick. I highly recommend him for this course. He has a wealth of knowledge and training with teaching this course. His teaching methods are very clear and easy to understand. I passed my Cert on the first attempt with missing only 2 questions.

Rick is an Amazing teacher, guide, supporter, motivator. I attended his CSM certification course and I was able to clear CSM and PSM Certifications in first attempt. He was extremely cool and patient and helped us all understand the concepts of Agile very clearly. I definitely highly recommend him for any kind of guidance, educational or otherwise.

I had a great time taking Rick’s Certified Scrum Master course this past summer. Rick’s teaching style was insightful and you can tell he is an expert with the content. There was a good balance of teaching the methodology and relating this to real world practice.
The course material was engaging and made for a nice collaborative environment to partner with our peers through.
I would highly recommend taking any courses Rick offers to better understand the ways of the Agile world.

I was honored to attend Rick’s CSM course, and heartily recommend that anyone wanting to become a Certified Scrum Master sign up for one of his classes.

The course was engaging, interesting, helpful, and immersive. Rick is a fantastic, engaged teacher and servant leader. His lessons equipped me so well for the exam.

Months later, I still leverage the thorough lessons, Rick’s wise insight, and the amazing conversations he facilitated among fellow students in my group every single day. The course directly helped me to equip and authentically serve my small and growing team of engineers.

I even made some friends!

Rick was absolutely incredible as a trainer. He had everyone fully engaged during classes and made it very interactive. I truly enjoyed his class and definitely recommend him to others. I do plan on taking additional classes with Rick in the near future. Thanks a million Rick!!! I learned so much and currently utilizing the skills I’ve learned.

Rick is an excellent Agile instructor! The hours spent with him are easily digestible and Rick is great at making his curriculum engaging and effective. Not only does he create a solid foundation for you to build off of, he integrates his real world practices into the class so that practical application is easy to understand. I cannot recommend his courses enough as I will look for him when I take my next certification!

Rick Waters is an excellent instructor, being able to articulate his knowledge and experience in a way that is easy to grasp. He is personable, which makes asking questions (either simple or complex) less daunting.

Rick is an outstanding trainer. His Scrum training sessions are well structured, interesting, interactive and based on the vast experience he has accumulated over the years working with this framework. I would not hesitate to recommend him as an Agile Coach. He will be a great adding for any organization who wishes to enhance their Scrum practices or to go through an Agile transformation.

Rick was as well-prepared and knowledgeable as any teacher I’ve had. He is a subject-matter expert who combines real-world experience but also – and just as important – a wealth of teaching experience. You are immediately confident within minutes of his class that you are in the hands of an expert. I can’t recommend him enough. If you have a chance to take a class taught by Rick, take it!!

Rick is a great teacher! He is outstanding, engaging and humorous. The hours I spent in Rick’s CSM class was valuable. I would strongly recommend Rick Waters for all things Scrum/Agile as he is a knowledgeable professional.
