MAINTAIN YOUR CERTIFICATION

Keep Learning, Stay Competitive

Leverage what you learn about agility to maintain your credibility as an agilist. 

You are a member of the most educated, practiced organization in the agile community. At Scrum Alliance, we value your learning journey. That's why we ask you to demonstrate your excellence in the form of continuing education that you track with Scrum Education Units (SEUs). The math is easy: One hour spent educating yourself in Scrum equals one SEU.  Make sure that the SEUs listed in your profile reflect the work you've already done. Use the links below to manage your SEUs so that you are ready to renew your certification. 

  • Looking for SEU opportunities?  The Scrum Alliance Resource Library automatically adds SEUs to your profile as you engage with the content. Learn More →
  • Earn for learning. Get SEUs and take your agile skills to the next level by completing courses in the members-only Scrum Alliance Learning Journey. Learn More → 
  • Need to add SEUs to your profile?  Log In and click the Manage SEUs button in the Scrum Education Units section on the right-hand side of your dashboard
