What Is the EXIN ASM Credential?Your Step into Scrum Leadership

The Agile Scrum Master (ASM) certification is an EXIN credential that proves you can run the Scrum framework, coach an agile team and remove the blockers that slow delivery. Agile Scrum Master certification training in New Zealand gives working professionals a structured, exam-focused route into one of the country's most in-demand agile roles.

Governed by EXIN, the ASM sits a level above the Agile Scrum Foundation and validates the Scrum Master role itself: servant leadership, facilitating Scrum events, protecting the team and supporting agile adoption. It is built for current and aspiring Scrum Masters, project managers moving to agile delivery, and team leads who already facilitate Scrum.

Delivered live online and in classroom formats, the programme maps to all five EXIN exam topic areas and prepares you for the 40-question exam. Start your ASM journey with Invensis Learning and turn day-to-day facilitation into a recognised, lifetime credential.

A Widening Agile Skills Gap

NZ's tech sector is creating agile roles faster than the talent pipeline can fill them, leaving certified Scrum Masters scarce and highly valued by employers.

ASM makes certified Scrum Masters stand out

Banks Scaling Agile Beyond Tech

Banks such as BNZ and ANZ have spread agile from technology units across the wider business, raising demand for Scrum Masters who can coach new teams through the change.

ASM builds coaching and adoption skills

Government Digital Transformation

Public-sector digital programmes need disciplined Scrum facilitation to deliver citizen services on time, creating steady demand for skilled Scrum Masters.

ASM builds disciplined facilitation skills

Coordinating Scaled, Multi-Team Delivery
