    What Is the EXIN ASM Certification?Your Route into Agile Delivery

    The Agile Scrum Master (ASM) is an EXIN certification that validates your ability to facilitate the Scrum process, coach agile teams, remove impediments and shield the team from interruptions. Agile Scrum Master certification training in Kenya prepares you for this globally recognised, exam-backed credential and for the day-to-day reality of leading sprints. As banks, fintechs and technology firms across Nairobi adopt agile delivery, employers increasingly want Scrum Masters who can prove their competence, not just claim it. The credential sits one step above EXIN Agile Scrum Foundation and focuses squarely on the Scrum Master role: servant leadership, sprint facilitation, agile estimation and planning, and supporting organisational agile adoption. Whether you are moving from a coordination role, formalising skills you already use, or stepping up to lead a team, this certification gives you a clear, supported path. Build the capability Kenyan employers value, sit the EXIN exam with confidence, and start your ASM journey with Invensis Learning.

    Invensis Learning is an EXIN Accredited Training Provider in Kenya, approved to deliver official ASM training using EXIN-aligned courseware and the EXIN Agile Scrum Master Certification Examination Content Outline(ECO).
