• Lean principles and their connection to scrum
• Launching new scrum teams
• Facilitation, coaching, and training
• Scaling scrum across more than one team

When you earn the CSP-SM, it shows you have demonstrated experience, documented training, and proven knowledge in scrum.

To pursue CSP-SM, you must meet specific requirements to vouch for your readiness and commitment to a high level of proficiency. Below are the key prerequisites and steps you need to fulfill:

• Hold an Advanced Certified ScrumMaster certification from Scrum Alliance (your A-CSM can be active or expired. It will renew automatically, along with your CSM, when you earn the CSP-SM)
• Successfully complete all components of the course. This may include pre- or post-course work as deemed necessary by your trainer to complete the learning objectives
• Accept the CSP-SM License Agreement and complete your Scrum Alliance membership profile
• Validate at least 24 months of work experience specific to the accountability of a scrum master from within the past five years
• Maintain your CSP-SM by earning Scrum Education Units and renewing your certification every two years

NOTE: You can enroll in the CSP-SM course once you have completed your A-CSM certification. However, to be eligible for the CSP-SM certification, you must also have a minimum of 24 months of scrum master experience recorded in your Scrum Alliance profile. You can take the course without the 24 months of experience, but you cannot get the certification until you have completed and recorded the 24 months of experience.
