Do You Qualify for the Agile Scrum Foundation Exam?
Real Skills and Global Recognition
The Agile Scrum Foundation (ASF) exam validates your understanding of agile and Scrum fundamentals as the foundation for participating in modern delivery teams. The certification focuses on the agile way of thinking, the Agile Manifesto and its 12 principles, the Scrum framework (roles, events, artefacts), the Scrum team and its responsibilities, agile estimation and planning techniques (story points, planning poker, velocity), and an introduction to complementary practices that support agile delivery. It is designed for professionals who want to demonstrate their grasp of agile values and Scrum mechanics and contribute effectively as members of agile teams in real-world delivery environments.
Roles, Demand and Salary
Agile Scrum Foundation is the recognised entry point into Japan's growing agile workforce. As employers move from waterfall to Scrum, certified professionals who understand the framework step into roles such as agile team member, business analyst and product owner, and with experience, Scrum Master. Demand is strongest in Tokyo's technology, e-commerce and fintech sectors, where Scrum Master salaries average well above the national wage. Here is what the market is telling us right now.
