Scrum Roles - The Scrum Team The Scrum Framework recognizes three roles: • The Product Owner, • The Scrum Team Member, • The Scrum Master. In addition to other programs it's providing to its worldwide students, International Scrum Institute™ provides three primary training and certification programs for these three roles. These programs are namely Scrum Product Owner Accredited Certification™ (SPOAC™), Scrum Team Member Accredited Certification™ (STMAC™), and Scrum Master Accredited Certification™ (SMAC™). A proper scrum organization must adequately possess people from all these three skillsets. That's particularly essential to succeed with the scrum software development framework.
None of these roles is dispensable or replaceable. They aren't combinable with the other scrum roles and functions. Each Scrum Product Owner typically works together with one scrum team. Each Scrum Team has its own Scrum Master, and each Scrum Master cares and works with one single Scrum Team. Please don't underestimate the importance of understanding the purpose and function of these roles and employing them with adequate talents. Many times we observed that the root cause of difficulties of a scrum team is either because these roles are not understood or they don't employ the right people. Each of these roles has a defined set of responsibilities. Only if the owners of these roles fulfill these responsibilities, closely interact, collaborate, and work together, they can finish a Scrum project successfully.
