    General

    What is the Certified ScrumMaster (CSM) certification?

    The Certified ScrumMaster (CSM) is Scrum Alliance's entry-level Scrum Master certification. It validates your understanding of the Scrum framework, the Scrum Master role, and the values and practices that make Scrum teams effective, aligned to the current Scrum Guide, the November 2020 edition. It is the most widely recognised Scrum Master credential globally.

    Who should take CSM training in Angola?

    CSM training suits aspiring Scrum Masters, project managers moving into agile delivery, and developers, testers or team members who want their Scrum knowledge formally recognised. It is a strong fit as banks, telecoms and IT firms in Angola scale agile ways of working.

    Is the CSM certification worth it for my career?

    Yes. CSM opens Scrum Master, Product Owner and agile delivery roles that typically sit above developer pay in Angola, with senior and coaching roles reaching higher. As agile adoption grows in banking, telecom and IT, certified Scrum talent is scarce and in demand. Talk to a learning advisor to plan your path.

    Is the CSM recognised internationally?

    Yes. The Certified ScrumMaster is the world's most widely recognised Scrum Master credential, with more than one million certificates issued. Scrum Alliance operates globally across all industries, so your credential travels with you across sectors and borders.

    Do I need experience or a degree to become CSM certified?

    No. There is no formal education or work-experience requirement for CSM. Attendance at an approved course delivered by a Certified Scrum Trainer (CST) is mandatory before you can sit the exam, which makes it well suited to those new to Scrum.

    How long is the CSM certification valid?

    CSM is valid for two years. To renew, you earn 16 Scrum Education Units (SEUs) and pay the Scrum Alliance membership renewal fee within each two-year cycle. SEUs can be earned through courses, conferences, coaching and self-study.

    Pricing

    How much does CSM training cost in Angola?

    CSM training fees vary by format and provider, and the CSM exam fee is usually included in the course fee paid to the training organisation. For current pricing on live virtual or corporate options in Angola, request a quote and a learning advisor will help.

    What is included in the CSM course fee?

    The fee typically includes Certified Scrum Trainer-led sessions, Scrum Alliance-aligned courseware, case studies, guidance to sit the online CSM exam, and a two-year Scrum Alliance membership on completion. Confirm the exact inclusions when you enrol.

    Is the exam fee included in the training price?

    In most cases, yes. The CSM exam fee is typically bundled into the course fee paid to the training provider, as the exam is only unlocked after you complete an approved CST-led course. Ask your advisor to confirm for your chosen batch.

    Do you offer group or corporate discounts for CSM training?

    Yes. We offer corporate group training with customised schedules and volume-based pricing for delivery teams, IT departments and transformation programmes. Contact us for a tailored group quote for your team in Angola.

    What payment methods are available?

    We accept major credit and debit cards and bank transfers, and offer instalment options on selected plans. Speak with a learning advisor to choose the option that suits you.

    Exam

    What is the format of the CSM exam?

    The CSM exam has 50 multiple-choice questions to be completed in 60 minutes. It is open book and taken online through the Scrum Alliance member portal after you complete an approved course, with no proctor required.

    What is the passing score for the CSM exam?

    The passing score is 74%, which means answering at least 37 of the 50 questions correctly. The exam is designed to test your knowledge and comprehension of the Scrum framework.

    How many attempts do I get for the CSM exam?

    Candidates typically have three attempts to pass the CSM exam within 90 days of completing the approved course. If you do not pass on the first try, you can retake it within that window at no fear of losing your place.

    Do I have to attend a course to sit the CSM exam?

    Yes. Scrum Alliance requires attendance at an approved CSM course delivered by a Certified Scrum Trainer (CST). The exam cannot be accessed without completing the course, which unlocks the online assessment through your Scrum Alliance account.

    Which standard is the CSM exam based on?

    The exam is based on the Scrum Alliance CSM Learning Objectives, aligned to the current Scrum Guide by Ken Schwaber and Jeff Sutherland, the November 2020 edition. It covers Scrum theory and values, the Scrum Team, events, artefacts and the Scrum Master role.

    Course Content

    What topics are covered in the CSM training?

    The training covers the six CSM topic areas: Scrum theory and principles, the five Scrum values, the Scrum Team, the Scrum events, the Scrum artefacts, and the Scrum Master role, all aligned to the 2020 Scrum Guide and the Scrum Alliance CSM Learning Objectives.

    Can a beginner take this course?

    Yes. CSM is a foundational certification with no prerequisites, so beginners are welcome. The Certified Scrum Trainer builds concepts from empiricism and the three pillars through to facilitation, so you do not need prior Scrum experience.

    How long is the CSM training programme?

    The instructor-led programme runs for 16 hours, delivered as two full days or four half-days depending on the schedule. This exceeds the Scrum Alliance minimum contact-hour requirement for an approved CSM course.

    What learning materials are provided?

    You receive Scrum Alliance-aligned CSM courseware and industry-driven case studies illustrating facilitation, coaching and impediment removal in realistic Scrum scenarios, plus guidance on earning SEUs for future renewal.

    Is the courseware aligned with the latest Scrum Guide?

    Yes. The courseware is aligned to the current Scrum Guide, the November 2020 edition, which introduced the Product Goal and the three artefact commitments, and to the current Scrum Alliance CSM Learning Objectives.

    You can enrol through the Invensis Learning website. Choose your preferred format, complete payment, and you will receive access to schedules, courseware and joining details for your batch. See upcoming batches to get started.

    What training formats are available?

    We run regular CSM batches in live virtual and corporate formats. Availability depends on the schedule you choose, so speak with a learning advisor or view upcoming batches to find the next start date that suits you.

    Can I reschedule or transfer my enrolment to another batch?

    Yes. Flexible options let you reschedule or transfer to another batch where available. Contact our support team ahead of your session and we will help you arrange it.
