These manuals which are part of the Agile Education Series developed by Dan Tousignant are the participant guides used in his public, onsite and virtual training classes worldwide and are intended for those readers who are aspiring Agile trainers, Scrum practitioners, or those interested in previewing the courses. These guides are not stand-alone training materials, but are for those people interested in reviewing a well-designed, comprehensive Agile curriculum.
