Scrum Master Certification

Agile Academy offers the most common certifications for (aspiring) Scrum Masters.

• Certified Scrum Master® (CSM)
• Advanced Scrum Master® (A-CSM)
• Certified Scrum Professional® - Scrum Master (CSP-SM)

• Professional Scrum Master 1 (PSM 1)
• Professional Scrum Master 2 (PSM 2)

You will receive these certificates after the corresponding live training.

By participating in our Scrum Master online course, you will receive a certificate from the Business Agility Academy. In addition, the course thoroughly prepares you for certification through scrum.org, which you can acquire independently.

At Agile Academy, we not only focus on high quality, but also on a practical learning approach. Instead of dry lectures, we offer interactive learning with numerous exercises and real examples that help you truly understand and apply the Scrum principles. In a relaxed atmosphere, supported by complimentary drinks and refreshments, you can fully concentrate on learning. But our commitment does not end with the training: we are also there for you afterwards and answer any of your questions to ensure that you are well prepared for your agile journey.

In addition, we offer various options for certification and can provide the right offer for your needs. You decide whether you want to do your training on-site with us, in a remote training, or in an online course.

In today's digital world, online learning at Agile Academy offers flexibility and self-determination:

• Flexibility: Learn at your own pace and wherever you want.
• Self-directed learning: Deepen topics according to your needs.
• Cost efficiency: No additional travel or venue costs.
• Access to resources: Our digital materials are always available to you.

Of course, live trainings have their own charm, but online offers you the freedom you may be looking for.

Both courses open the doors to the world of Scrum, but have different focuses:

• Certified Scrum Master (CSM): Offered by Scrum Alliance, you dive into the principles and practices of Scrum here, with a special focus on the role of the Scrum Master.
• Professional Scrum Master (PSM): At Scrum.org, you delve deeper into the theory and philosophy of Scrum, with different levels for different needs.

Scrum Alliance and Scrum.org are both recognized organizations that offer training and certifications in the field of Scrum. However, there are some differences:

• Foundation: Scrum Alliance was founded in 2001 as the first organization of its kind, while Scrum.org was later established in 2009 by Ken Schwaber, one of the co-founders of Scrum.
• Certifications: Both organizations offer different certifications, although the exact titles and requirements may vary.
• Renewal: Scrum Alliance requires certificates to be renewed every two years, while Scrum.org does not have renewal requirements for their certificates.
• Philosophy: While both organizations promote the Scrum framework, approaches and focuses may differ in training and materials.

It is important to emphasize that both Scrum Alliance and Scrum.org are highly respected in the agile community and both make valuable contributions to the advancement of Scrum and agile practices.
