    What is the format of the CSM exam?

    The CSM exam is an open-book, online, multiple-choice test of 50 questions taken through the Scrum Alliance member portal after you complete an approved course. It has a 60-minute time limit and needs no proctor.

    What is the passing score for the CSM exam?

    The passing score is 74%, which means answering at least 37 of the 50 questions correctly. The course preparation and practice questions are designed to build the broad Scrum framework knowledge the exam assesses.

    What if I do not pass the CSM exam the first time?

    You typically have up to three attempts to pass the CSM exam within 90 days of completing your course, so there is room to revise and retry. Our trainer-led preparation and practice questions are built to help you pass on the first attempt.

    How and when do I take the CSM exam?

    You take the exam online through your Scrum Alliance member account within 90 days of completing an approved CSM course. It is open book and unproctored, so you can sit it from home or the office once you feel ready.

    The exam covers the Scrum Alliance CSM Learning Objectives: Scrum theory and principles, the Scrum values, the Scrum Team, the Scrum events, the Scrum artifacts and the Scrum Master role, all aligned to the current Scrum Guide.

    Course Content

    Can a beginner take the CSM course?

    Yes. There is no formal work experience or education requirement, so the CSM course suits those new to Scrum as well as team members formalising existing knowledge. The trainer builds concepts from the ground up with plenty of practical examples.

    What will I learn in the CSM training?

    You will learn the Scrum framework end to end: empiricism and the three pillars, the five Scrum values, the Scrum Team accountabilities, all five Scrum events, the three artifacts and their commitments, and how to lead as a servant-leader Scrum Master.

    How long is the CSM training?

    The CSM programme runs for 16 hours of instructor-led training, delivered as two full days or four half-days depending on the schedule. This exceeds the Scrum Alliance minimum contact-hours requirement for CSM courses.

    What materials are provided with the course?

    You receive Scrum Alliance aligned CSM courseware and industry-driven case studies that illustrate Scrum Master facilitation, coaching and impediment removal in realistic delivery scenarios, plus guidance on the online exam and credential renewal.

    Yes. The courseware follows the current Scrum Guide, the November 2020 edition, and the Scrum Alliance CSM Learning Objectives, so what you learn reflects the latest Scrum framework and maps to the online CSM exam.
