    General

    What is the Certified ScrumMaster certification?

    The CSM suits aspiring Scrum Masters, developers, testers and business analysts already in agile teams, and project managers moving to Scrum. There is no formal education or work-experience requirement, so it is open to anyone wanting to formalise their Scrum knowledge.

    Which standard is the CSM course based on?

    The course follows the Scrum Alliance CSM Learning Objectives and the current Scrum Guide, the November 2020 edition by Ken Schwaber and Jeff Sutherland. It covers Scrum theory, the five values, the Scrum Team, the five events and the three artefacts.

    What is the passing score for the CSM exam?

    You need 74% to pass, which means answering at least 37 of the 50 questions correctly. The course prepares you across all six CSM topic areas so you sit the exam with confidence.

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

    You typically have up to three attempts to pass within 90 days of completing the course. Our training and practice materials are designed to help you pass on your first attempt, and support is available if you need to resit.

    How long is the CSM course and how is it delivered?

    The course runs for 16 hours, usually as two full days or four half-days, delivered live virtual (online) or on-site by a Certified Scrum Trainer. This meets the Scrum Alliance minimum contact-hours requirement for CSM.

    Do I need prior Scrum experience to join?

    No. The CSM is an entry-level certification with no prerequisites, so beginners are welcome. The trainer builds concepts from first principles and uses hands-on activities, so you can join even if you are new to Scrum.

    What materials and practice are provided?

    You receive Scrum Alliance aligned courseware, industry case studies on facilitation and impediment removal, practice questions mapped to the exam format, and post-training support. These help you apply Scrum at work and prepare for the exam.

    Is the course aligned with the latest Scrum Guide?
