Scrum Alliance certification courses (e.g. CSM®, CSPO®, etc.) are all taught by those who achieved Certified Scrum Trainer® (CST) or Certified Scrum Alliance Trainer™ (CSAT™) certification and who have been approved to deliver these classes and recommend individuals for certification.
If you've found a course outside of the Scrum Alliance website, you may confirm that it will result in certification from Scrum Alliance by doing one of the following:
- Confirming the date, location, and listed trainer or training provider by using our Course Search
- Verifying the designated instructor is a Scrum Alliance CST or CSAT by using our Member Search
- Verifying if the training provider is in our Training Partner Search.
If you have any questions or doubts if a certain class listing outside of the Scrum Alliance website will result in certification, please contact our support team, and we'll be happy to help verify.
