Attend a Professional Scrum Product Backlog Management Skills™ course
The price of the course includes one attempt at the certification assessment. If you attempt it within 14 days after the course and fail to pass, you will get automatically another attempt for free.
About the exam

You take the exam online at your computer.
You do not need to have your video camera turned on, no one will check you during the exam. Scrum.org trusts its students.

Whenever you want. It takes 30min.
Start the exam whenever you feel ready. Once you start it, you have a limit of 30min. The remaining time will be displayed on the screen.

20 multiple choice questions.
You choose one or more options. For most questions, it is stated how many options are correct. (E.g. "choose two best answers".)

Evaluated immediately.
You will see the result immediately after submitting the test. At the same time, you will receive feedback on which areas you did well and where you still have gaps.
 
Focus of the exam
The questions focus primarily on:
- Product backlog
 
- Product backlog management
 
- Stakeholders and customers
 
The exam assumes knowledge of Scrum at least at the level of the introductory Professional Scrum Product Owner™
or Professional Scrum Master™ course.
What if I fail the exam?
If you attempt the exam within 14 days after the course and fail to pass, you will get automatically another attempt free of charge. You can then take the exam again anytime you feel ready. Otherwise, you can buy another attempt directly from Scrum.org.
Key resources
To prepare for the certification assessment, we recommend studying from these resources:
Training materials
Go through the official training materials and your notes. We will share with you photos of everything we create during the training. Refresh and strenghten your knowledge.
Official Scrum.org resources
The pages link to other recommended resources, articles and videos.
Scrum Guide
Refresh the official Scrum Guide↗. The last revision was released on November 18, 2020 and brought a number of changes. Read carefully.
Open Assessments
A good idea of what to expect is provided by the official sample assessments:
They are free, contain randomly selected questions from a larger pool, some of which may appear in the real assessment.
- Go through sample assessments several times to get familiar with all the questions in the pool.
 - Pay attention to the detailed explanation of each answer in the assessment results.
 
The sample assessment is generally easier than the actual certification exam. If you have trouble getting 100% in less than 10 minutes, you are not yet ready for the certification exam.
