Q & A
Can I sign up for the Advanced session even though I will just be earning my CSM®? Yes, you can take the ACSM® class without the CSM®, but the ACSM® certificate won’t become active until you’ve completed your Scrum Allaince CSM® class (and entered your experience on your Scrum Alliance dashboard). Must have at least 12 months of Scrum Master experience but it ca be obtained after class. Any time spent as a Scrum Master prior to earning your CSM®, counts towards the 12 months. For example, you spend 6 months as a ScrumMaster, you then earn your CSM®, then the same week you earn your ACSM®, you have six more months of CSM® experience to work before the ACSM® certification becomes active.
Can we get a group discount? Yes, if you have three or more we will arrange a discount for you. Please reach out to [email protected]
What if my CSM® isn’t a real Scrum Alliance CSM®. Can I still come to the advanced session? The Scrum Alliance is the only non-profit agile certifying body that is able to give out the registered trademark and highly sought after CSM® designation. If, by chance, you were not aware of that, and you ended up taking your certification class and earned some other type of Scrum Master certification, please let us know in advance and we can walk you through your options for earning the ACSM®.
Do I need to be present the whole time? You need to be present for the entire course/learning session of 16 hours.
Who is Sticky Agile? We are a small, US-based, women-owned business. Both of our Certified Scrum Trainers have been accredited through the Scrum Alliance to receive the highest level of certification one can earn in the agile community.
