    CSM Training and Certification FAQs

    Certified Scrum Master

    The Certified ScrumMaster® is a designation offered by Scrum Alliance that validates an individual as a Scrum Practitioner who can lead a Scrum project skillfully. The Scrum Master is also called the Servant Leader as he/she helps the team members to succeed in implementing the Scrum framework.

    When it comes to being a successful Scrum Master, there are certain roles and responsibilities that need to be performed. Following are the primary roles and responsibilities of the Scrum Master:

    • Act as a facilitator and servant leader who encourages self-organization
    • Remove obstacles so that the team can focus more on work and follow practices of Scrum
    • Protect the team from internal and external distractions
    • Ensure a good relationship between the product owner and the team along with the members outside the team
    • Set up an environment where the team can perform more effectively
    • Manage the scrum process in coordination with the scrum team
    • Conduct retrospective meetings
    • Address team progress

    The exponential growth of Scrum, combined with Scrum adoption in 65% of IT enterprises globally indicates the need for Certified ScrumMasters who can facilitate complex project execution. A CSM certification from any Global REP (Registered Education Provider) helps reinforce your industry identity as an Agilist who can lead projects to successful execution.

    A Certified ScrumMaster® (CSM) has been taught by a Certified Scrum Trainer (CST) the Scrum terminology, practices, and principles that will enable him or her to act as a Scrum Master or Scrum team member. This credential is a first step on the Agile path. To become a true, practicing Scrum professional requires enough experience and continuing education.

    No, there is no online/virtual course for CSM. Scrum Alliance believes that understanding Scrum requires a greater level of personal interaction than can be delivered in a virtual environment.

    Through this membership, you can join local user group and online social networks, get discounts on gatherings, and enjoy additional member-only resources. In addition, CSMs can use a specially designed logo to highlight their credentials.

    According to Scrum Alliance, a Certified Scrum Master course helps to increase the likelihood of a project’s overall success by applying Scrum principles and techniques. By understanding the values, practices, and applications, you can act as a ‘servant leader’ rising above and beyond an average project manager and helping your organization achieve meaningful goals.

    Scrum framework has become the Agile framework of choice for today’s organizations. Based on a survey by VersionOne’s 2018 State of Agile Development survey, currently 56% of the Agile teams are implementing a pure Scrum approach for delivering their projects and 70% of the respondent’s organization are implementing hybrid approaches such as Scrum, ScrumBan, and Scrum/XP.

    Scrum framework is simple to learn but difficult to implement. The organizations implementing Scrum for the first time, require the presence of a skilled Scrum Master on a team. Being a Certified ScrumMaster, an individual can undertake the role of a Business Analyst, Lead Software, Engineer, Project Manager, Information Technology, Staff Scrum Master, Delivery Lead, Agile, Scrum Master, Technical Program Manager, Senior Project Manager, Agile Coach, QA Automation Engineer, Software Project Lead, etc.  

    Agile methodology is one of the top 5 required skills, coming in at the 2nd position of LinkedIn’s list of the Most promising Jobs for 2018.  This list shows that the knowledge of Agile methodologies including Scrum framework is one of the most sought-after skills today.

    Job opportunities are continuously increasing in number which in turn is raising the demand for professional and skilled Scrum Masters. Hiring Certified ScrumMasters in the Agile organizations will make sure that the team is properly implementing Scrum. Obtaining the Certified Scrum Master (CSM) training will give you the extra edge in your job search and help you to get a high-paying job that will set you up to go in a new direction on your Agile journey

    Nowadays, Scrum has been gaining momentum in creating innovation and facilitating continuous value delivery. Scrum is easy to learn but difficult to implement. Though adopting Scrum is a challenge for the non-Agile organizations, the demand for the Scrum framework is growing exponentially today.

    The latest State of Scrum report says that nearly 85% of their recent survey respondents have taken up Scrum Master certification and a whopping 63% success rate of  Scrum projects explains why Scrum Master certification tops the charts.

    Here is a list of the top companies that have hired Certified ScrumMaster professionals in Chicago:

    CSM Certification Exam

    CSM is an open-book exam and is easy to pass. Despite passing the Scrum Master certification exam the activity-based sessions included in the training help in gaining the knowledge of the Scrum concepts and its practical applicability, which are the most significant aspects to understand the Scrum framework.

    The Certified ScrumMaster certification exam is an online test comprising of 50 multiple choice questions with a time limit of 60 minutes to finish the CSM certification exam and obtain the certification. You are allowed to take the exam only after successful completion of the course.

    The Scrum Alliance CSM certification exam fee is included in the Certified ScrumMaster training cost.

    Yes. Scrum Alliance allows you to take the Scrum Master exam at no cost for the first 2 attempts within 90 days after you receive your welcome email. You will be charged a minimum of $25 each from the third attempt or after completing your 90 days. Scrum Alliance suggests retaking the CSM course if you have failed thrice in the exam.

    The CSM accreditation body is the Scrum Alliance and its exam fee is non-refundable.

    No. There is no such sample test available on the Scrum Alliance website. But, CSM test blueprint will help you to understand the format of the Scrum Master certification exam. This blueprint outlines the percentage of questions from each domain that will be on the 50-question test. Fortunately, the training and coaching community will not need to make any changes in their materials as the new exam pattern still follows the current Learning Objectives as well as the recently published Learning Objectives.

    It is highly recommended to practice Scrum Master certification exam sample questions in order to pass the final CSM certification exam in your first attempt. You can take the free Scrum Master certification sample test for practice purposes.

    After completing your CSM course, you will receive an email from Scrum Alliance® that includes a link to create your login credentials. The first step will be to take the online exam. Once the exam is complete, you will be asked to accept a license agreement and set up your online profile. It could take up to two weeks after course completion to receive your welcome email.

    The individuals can take the online test from any computer anywhere in the world, according to their comfort (home, work, or other location). The test will not be proctored.

    No, there is no option to pause a test since you will have a duration limit of an hour (60 minutes). On the off chance, if you shut the window, you can reopen the window instantly. In case if you lose internet connection or lose access to the test for an extended period of time, you may visit support@scrumalliance.org to start a new test set up.

    Scrum Alliance always strives to maintain the quality and relevance of the CSM certification by validating the best practices in the Agile industry from active practitioners in the field. The CSM curriculum incorporates the best in current knowledge, skills, and abilities necessary to earn the CSM certification.  As such, the Scrum Alliance believes in involving their community to validate what is important in the role of the Scrum Master and then updates the tests to reflect these key areas.

    If you choose English as your exam language, you will be able to switch to a newer version as the new test has recently got published. If you choose a different language then you may take the older version till that specific language gets published. Furthermore, according to the Scrum Alliance, the tests will be launched in other languages in the coming months, as soon as they inspect and adapt to the launch of the English version.

    You will find the test blueprint at the bottom of the CSM page under ‘Resources’, on the Scrum Alliance website. This test blueprint covers the stipulated percentage of questions from each domain. The test blueprint is aligned with the latest version of 2018 LOs. Moreover, the 2018 CSM LOs matches with the November 2017 Scrum Guide. The current LOs can be found on the Scrum Alliance CSM certification webpage and also on ‘Trainer and Coach dashboards’ under “Resources”.

    If you've already passed the CSM test, you will not be able to take it again to receive a better score. Your test score is only available to you. Nobody else will be able to see your score on the CSM test.

    Jimi Fosdick is an outstanding instructor and I am thrilled I had the opportunity to attend his training. Before this course, I had no agile or scrum experience, but fortunately, that was not an issue. Jimi taught the material using an engaging and interactive style that allowed me to quickly grasp the scrum concepts. Jimi led our class through several real-world (and fun) projects that allowed everyone in the class to realize the tremendous benefits of using scrum when appropriate.
