In a learning path

PSK usually comes after APS, PSM or PSPO. That is a sequencing hint, not a booking rule.

When this class is a fit

PSK helps people blend Kanban practices into Scrum; it is not a first Scrum class and needs a willingness to compose a cross-functional team.

It is not a fit when:

The organization is not willing to compose a cross-functional team
There is no named framework in use yet
The work still runs as waterfall or stage-gate

Often a stronger starting point when

The current need: Improve flow and predictability
How work runs today: Scrum and Kanban together
How work runs today: Scrum
The organization is willing to compose a cross-functional team
