Foundational, Advanced, and Professional Levels

You worked hard for that certification. Don’t let it lapse! Renew now and maintain your certification for two years.
Renewing your CSM®, CSPO®, and/or CSD® certification(s) allows you to:

  • Differentiate yourself from others in your field by receiving an endorsement of your skills, knowledge, and abilities from the largest, most established, and influential Agile certifying body.
  • Open the door to career advancement opportunities and the potential for increased earnings.
  • Participate in volunteer opportunities and influence the future of Scrum.
  • Continue your path in obtaining more advanced certifications.
  • Display digital badging to promote your achievements.
To validate your participation and continued proficiency in the fundamental principles and practices of Scrum, you are required to earn Scrum Education Units® (SEUs) by completing an educational training or learning opportunity. It’s easy to do and will help you stay relevant (and competitive) in the market. Note: All SEUs used for renewal must have been earned within the past two (2) years.
 
Learning is essential for your ongoing journey and SEUs are an easy way to accomplish this. Here's just a sampling of the wide variety of ways to earn SEUs:  
The following SEU requirements went into effect on February 4, 2019 (renewal fees did not change):
Certification (Two-Year Term) SEUs Required Fee Per Term
Foundational : CSM®, CSPO®, or CSD® 20 (NEW!) $100
Advanced: A-CSMSM or A-CSPOSM
30 (NEW!) $175
Professional: CSP®-SM, CSP®-PO, or CSP®
40 $250


Do you have multiple certifications?

You will need to submit the full amount of required SEUs for your highest-level certification, but you will only be required to submit half the amount of required SEUs for each certification in a different track thereafter. Please visit our Help Center for specific examples.

Renewing your guide level certification also renews your other-obtained certifications as applicable.
