    How to Get Agile PM Certified in AustraliaStep-by-Step Certification Process

    The path to Online Agile PM certification follows a structured two-exam route. There are no prerequisites for the Foundation examination. After completing the combined Foundation and Practitioner training, candidates progress through both certification exams to demonstrate their knowledge of Agile Project Management principles and practices. Most learners complete the process within 1 to 2 weeks after training.

    Step 1: Complete the Agile PM Foundation and Practitioner Training

    Enrol in the Invensis Learning Agile PM Foundation and Practitioner Certification training in Australia (5-Day Live Online Bootcamp, E-Learning, or Corporate Group Training). The integrated programme covers the Agile PM lifecycle, roles and responsibilities, project control, requirements, estimating, and risk management.

    Step 2: Sit the Agile PM Foundation Exam

    Take the Foundation exam: 50 multiple-choice questions, 40 minutes, 50% pass mark (25 of 50), closed book. Delivered online proctored from your home or office in Australia, or at an approved test centre.

    Step 3: Earn the Agile PM Foundation Credential

    On passing the Foundation exam, your Agile PM Foundation certificate is issued. The Foundation credential validates your knowledge of Agile project management fundamentals.

    Step 4: Sit the Agile PM Practitioner Exam

    Take the Practitioner exam: 4 objective-test questions, 2.5 hours, 50% pass mark (40 of 80 points), open book to the official Agile PM manual. The Practitioner exam is scenario-based and tests applied knowledge in realistic project contexts.

    Step 5: Activate Your Agile PM Foundation and Practitioner Credentials

    On passing both exams, you earn both the Agile PM Foundation and Practitioner certificates. The Foundation credential is lifetime valid; the Practitioner credential typically has a 5-year validity, renewable via continuing professional development (CPD) or re-examination.

    Step 6: Maintain Your Practitioner Credential

    Maintain your Agile PM Practitioner credential by earning CPD points each year or by re-sitting the Practitioner exam before the 5-year validity expires. Foundation does not require renewal.

    What is the AgilePM Foundation and Practitioner certification?

    AgilePM Foundation and Practitioner is a combined certification in structured agile project management based on the DSDM framework, owned by the Agile Business Consortium.

    Who should take AgilePM training in Australia?

    AgilePM suits project managers, business analysts, delivery leads, scrum masters and team members who want agile delivery inside a recognised governance structure. It is popular across Australian banking, government, technology and consulting, where auditable agile delivery is expected.

    Is AgilePM recognised in Australia?

    Yes. AgilePM is a globally recognised agile project management framework used in over 150 countries and valued by Australian employers, including the Big Four banks, government agencies, telcos and consultancies that need agile delivery with governance.

    Is AgilePM worth it for my career?

    Yes. Certified agile project managers in Australia average around A$155,500, and demand runs from scrum master up to delivery lead, agile coach and programme manager. AgilePM proves you can deliver iteratively within project governance, a combination employers increasingly seek. Talk to a learning advisor to plan your path.

    What is the difference between Foundation and Practitioner?

    Foundation covers the AgilePM framework at knowledge and comprehension level, while Practitioner tests your ability to apply and tailor it to project scenarios. The combined programme prepares you for both levels sequentially, Foundation first, then Practitioner.

    Pricing

    How much does AgilePM training cost in Australia?

    AgilePM Foundation and Practitioner training is priced by format and schedule, and combined packages typically include both exam vouchers. Pricing is available on request. Contact us for a quote or to ask about corporate and group rates.

    What is included in the AgilePM course fee?

    The fee typically includes AgilePM-aligned courseware, live instructor-led sessions, mock exams and practice questions for both levels, case studies, and learner support. Combined packages usually include the Foundation and Practitioner exam vouchers. Confirm inclusions when you request a quote.

    Are the exam fees included in the price?

    Combined AgilePM packages generally include both the Foundation and Practitioner exam vouchers, though this can vary by plan. Ask a learning advisor to confirm exactly what your chosen package covers before you enrol.

    Do you offer corporate or group discounts?

    Yes. We offer corporate group training with customised schedules and volume-based pricing for delivery teams, PMOs and business units across Australia. Contact us for a tailored group quote.

    What payment options are available?

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

    Exam

    What is the format of the AgilePM Foundation exam?

    The Foundation exam has 50 multiple-choice questions with a 40-minute duration. It is closed book, and the pass mark is 50%, which is 25 out of 50 correct. It is delivered by online proctoring or at an authorised test centre.

    What is the format of the AgilePM Practitioner exam?

    The Practitioner exam has 4 scenario-based questions worth 15 marks each, 60 marks in total, over 2 hours. It is open book, with the AgilePM Handbook permitted, and the pass mark is 50%, which is 30 out of 60 marks.

    What is the passing score for each AgilePM exam?

    Both exams require 50% to pass. For Foundation that is 25 out of 50 questions correct, and for Practitioner that is 30 out of 60 marks. You must pass both to hold both credentials.

    What does open book mean for the Practitioner exam?

    Open book means the AgilePM Handbook is permitted during the Practitioner exam. However, the scenario-based questions require analysis and judgment, so you cannot simply look up answers. Efficient handbook navigation and deep method knowledge are both essential.

    What if I do not pass an exam the first time?

    You can re-sit the exam you did not pass. Our programme includes mock exams, practice questions and trainer guidance for both levels to help you prepare with confidence. Ask our team about re-sit options and support.

    Course Content

    What topics does the AgilePM course cover?

    The course covers the AgilePM philosophy and eight principles, the six-phase lifecycle and products, roles and responsibilities, MoSCoW prioritisation, timeboxing and quality, and planning, control and risk, taught at Foundation level and applied at Practitioner level.

    Which standard is the course aligned to?

    The course is aligned to the current edition of the AgilePM Handbook, published by the Agile Business Consortium, and to the AgilePM Foundation and Practitioner exam syllabi. AgilePM is based on the DSDM framework, the original agile method created in 1994.

    Do I need prior experience to take AgilePM?

    No prior experience is required for Foundation, which is open to all. Practitioner requires AgilePM Foundation first. The combined programme is beginner-friendly and takes you through both levels with structured practice, so newcomers to agile can follow along.

    What are the eight AgilePM principles?

    They are: focus on the business need; deliver on time; collaborate; never compromise quality; build incrementally from firm foundations; develop iteratively; communicate continuously and clearly; and demonstrate control. The course shows how to apply each in practice.

    What materials and practice resources are included?

    You receive AgilePM-aligned courseware, industry-driven case studies, and mock exams with practice questions for both the Foundation and Practitioner levels, plus trainer guidance to prepare you for both exams.

    How long is the AgilePM programme?

    The combined Foundation and Practitioner programme is delivered over 40 hours of training, typically as a five-day intensive or a part-time extended schedule. Foundation content is covered first, followed by Practitioner, with an exam at the end of each level.
