    Certification

    Is there an exam for the CSPO certification?

    No. The CSPO has no examination. The credential is awarded on successful completion of an approved CSPO course delivered by a Scrum Alliance Certified Scrum Trainer, so you can focus fully on learning rather than exam preparation.

    How is the CSPO credential awarded?

    You attend the full approved course delivered by a Certified Scrum Trainer, then accept the Scrum Alliance license agreement and code of ethics through your member account. Scrum Alliance then activates your CSPO credential.

    Who delivers the CSPO course?

    Course Content
