Scrum Inc. is partnering with Ivar Jacobson International to build an OMG Essence Standard glossary for Scrum Terms
"By using the Essence cards to describe the essential elements in Scrum, Scrum Inc. provides a simple, intuitive view of Scrum..."
The new tool will launch in February at Certified Scrum classes taught by the co-creator of Scrum, Dr. Jeff Sutherland in the United Kingdom.
London (12 December 2018) – Scrum Inc., the world’s premier Scrum training and consulting provider, today announced that it has been working with its partner Ivar Jacobson International (IJI), a leading consulting, coaching and training company for enterprise-scale agile software development, to apply Essence to build a navigable glossary of the essential elements of Scrum. This glossary will be used at Scrum Inc. and in Certified Scrum training courses, hosted by IJI and taught by Jeff Sutherland in the United Kingdom in February 2018.
Essence is an open-standard adopted by the Object Management Group that can be applied to describe any practice or framework to easily summarize and communicate the essentials and allow people to mix and match practices from any framework.
Dr. Jeff Sutherland, co-creator of Scrum and Founder of Scrum Inc. said, “Ivar Jacobson’s early work in Use Cases, Rational Unified Process (RUP), and Unified Modeling Language (UML) was fundamental to the emergence of agile processes. He has evolved the open Essence Standard as the best way to describe a methodology. We partnered with IJI to apply Essence to create a simple glossary of the events, roles and artifacts of the Scrum framework.”
“As we began collaborating to create the Scrum glossary, it became apparent that IJI would invite the leading Scrum trainers to deliver Certified Scrum Master & Certified Product Owner training classes to its clients,” said chairman and founder of Ivar Jacobson International Dr. Ivar Jacobson. “We are extremely pleased that Jeff Sutherland, the co-creator of Scrum, has agreed to teach these courses in London next year.”
“By using the Essence cards to describe the essential elements in Scrum, Scrum Inc. provides a simple, intuitive view of Scrum that complements the existing Scrum guide and enables teams to more quickly adopt Scrum and accelerate value delivery," explained Dr. Jacobson. “And that’s not all, although we’re starting with cards the real power is the ability for practitioners to complement Scrum with their own continuous improvement.”
