Description

Certified Scrum Professional® Developers challenge their teams to improve the way scrum and agile principles are applied. They have demonstrated experience, documented training, and proven knowledge in scrum. The CSP-D certification is unique to developers and distinct from a Certified Scrum Professional®-ScrumMaster (CSP®-SM) or Certified Scrum Professional®-Product Owner (CSP®-PO).

Aside from the pride gained and earning potential of attaining CSP level, you can also:
  • Attend exclusive CSP events with other leaders in scrum and agile
  • Attract more recruiters and command a higher rate of pay
  • Establish a gateway and milestone toward becoming a CST®, CEC, or CTC
  • Receive a free Premium subscription to the world's largest agile assessment and continuous improvement platform, Comparative Agility®

Requirements

  • Hold an active Advanced Certified Scrum Developer (A-CSD®) certification with Scrum Alliance.
  • Attend a CSP®-D educational offering to gain techniques that expand into enabling a culture of technical excellence, catalyzing high-performance technology organizations, facilitating environments for a shared understanding, guiding scrum teams to learn and grow, and developing the self as an agile leader.
  • Successfully complete all educator-designed components of an approved educational offering. This may include pre- or post-course work as deemed necessary by your approved educator to complete the learning objectives.
  • Validate at least 24 months of work experience specific to the role of Scrum developer/team member (within the past five years).
