Certified Scrum Developer Certification (CSD)

Requirements

To earn a CSD, we require at least five days of formal training taught by a Scrum Alliance Registered Education Provider (REP^®) and a Scrum Alliance-approved CSD instructor.

There are currently two tracks to achieve CSD certification (detailed below). The courses for both tracks can be taken in any order. Once you complete a track, you will receive notification to accept your CSD license, and the CSD certification will be added to your profile. Your certification is valid for two years.

Track 1
•    CSM^® course (2 days)
•    CSD technical course, including coding (3 days)

Track 2
•    Intro to Scrum CSD course (1 day)
•    CSD technical course, including coding (3 days)
•    CSD technical elective course (1 day)

Costs

Certification Cost is Included with Course Tuition

Recertification Requirements

20 Scrum Education Credits (SEUs) need to be earned every two years in order to renew the CSD certification. There is also a $100 Renewal Fee.

Cprime offers multiple courses that award SEUs. If you are not sure whether a course or instructor qualifies you for SEUs, or how many SEUs a class is worth, contact your training advisor.

Exam Details

During your CSD courses, you must demonstrate an understanding of Scrum and Agile engineering practices by passing a CSD assessment provided by the REP instructor. The assessment may be an exam administered by the instructor to test your knowledge, or it may be an active, classroom-based assessment. When a REP instructor uploads a student’s information into our system, they are recommending the student for certification.
