Course Description
== As of Feb 2025 ==
2187 Students Passed PSM 1 --> On 1st Attempt --> 98% Pass Rate
Welcome to Agile Scrum Mastery: Certification + Project Simulation. The only course you need to
1) Get Professional Scrum Master (PSM 1) certification &
2) Succeed in your first role as Scrum Master
As you consider my course, I suggest asking yourself these questions.
== Do I want to become a Scrum Master? ==
The Scrum Master role is one of the most promising and highest-paying careers today, offering an opportunity to dramatically improve your career and quality of life.
Check out some data that shows that becoming a Scrum Master is a great opportunity for you:
Google Search Trends shows an 84% increase in searches for "Scrum Master" worldwide, with a particularly strong interest in countries such as United States, India & Singapore.
Glassdoor indicates Scrum Master is one of the highest-paying entry level jobs, with an average of $78,000 per year.
A study by Scrum. org in 2023 showed that the average salary of a Scrum Master is $98,000+, ranging up to $150,000+, per year.
LinkedIn included Scrum Master in its 2023 Fastest Growing Jobs list.
== But why is the Scrum Master role in demand? ==
Scrum is the most popular Agile framework in the world. It is used for building and delivering complex products. Most modern companies use it today. But while the framework is simple, adopting it successfully in a company can be challenging. The Scrum Master is the valued "Scrum Expert" who helps teams use Scrum correctly, as per the Scrum Guide.
The key to breaking into the Scrum Master role is 1) getting PSM 1 certification & 2) learning to perform the Scrum Master role well. While other courses focus only on PSM 1 certification, my course has been designed specifically to help you succeed in both areas.
== Can I pass PSM 1 on my first try? ==
Yes! 98% of my students have done just that, passing the exam on their first attempt. [based on my 2023 survey of 2239 of my students who took the PSM 1 exam].
== Why PSM 1 ? ==
There are many certifications available, but the best cost-benefit for you is, unquestionably, getting the Professional Scrum Master level 1, by Scrum. org!
However, it costs $150 per attempt, which is not cheap.
Therefore, a smart move is to make a small investment in this course. But why take my course?
== How is this course different? ==
You'll get:
1) A proven formula developed and refined over 4 years, that maximizes your chance of passing PSM 1 on your first attempt [my students experience 98% pass rate]
2) The only course that covers both a) how to pass PSM 1 certification & b) how to succeed in a Scrum team via real world project simulations run in JIRA, Confluence & Physical Scrum boards.
3) The only course that lets you ask questions in a Live Chat format via our Discord community.
4) 6.5 hours of courses taught in a fun & engaging format, with a focus on learning by doing.
5) Over 500 exclusive practice exam questions that let you study in both a) learning mode & b) exam simulation mode.
6) Access to our community of over 3,800 professionals for networking, collaboration & group study.
7) Detailed PSM 1 study notes designed to help you quickly review and revise study material, before taking the PSM 1 exam.
8) The instructor, Raj Elakkara, has over 15 years of experience coaching Agile teams in both large Fortune 500 companies (such as FedEx, GE, Canva & Atlassian.) & startups. This course is the result of extensive research into Passing Scrum certification & learning real-world Agile in an online study format.

By Jurgen Dengel on 12/22/2025
Sehr gut, aber es gibt sehr wenige - wenn trotzdem vorhandene - Relikte aus den vergangenen Scrum Tagen vor 2020 zb in den notes 83. The sum of all Increments is presented to Stakeholders at the Sprint Review. -> During the event, the Scrum Team and the stakeholders review what was accomplished in the Sprint and what has changed in their environment. oder auch im Kurs: “defend the team from any interference” “protects the development team from outside interference” “acts as an interceptor” Das ist exakt die alte 2017-Logik („shielding / protecting“) Im Scrum Guide 2020 bewusst gestrichen
By Mikael Lindberg on 11/17/2025
This course helped me succeed the PSM1 exam as well as giving me a solid understanding of how to implement and work with scrum, both as a developer and hopefully as a Scrum Master.
By Allan Kataku on 9/29/2025
Ce cours est juste fantastique! Il ne donne pas que la théorie mais des exemples pratiques pour soutenir la théorie. Je ne regrette pas d'avoir acheté ce cours mais par contre je regrette que c'est seulement maintenant que je le suis après l'avoir acheté depuis des mois
By Nkem Linda Obishai on 12/21/2022

By Umesh Siddaramu on 1/6/2021
This course is very helpful to understand all about agile and scrum thoroughly. The concepts are really very well explained supported by animations that was very captivating. The real time demonstration of how it works real or applied is outstanding. The quizzes and the PSM practice tests were very helpful and this has helped me to clear my PSM 1 certification. Thanks, Umesh

By Debadatta Satpathy on 11/7/2020
Great way of explaining the Agile Manifesto till now.
By Alexis on 11/7/2020
This course was really well made and put together. I found it so easy to digest. Raj is a really good instructor and I will definitely be looking to do more of his courses in the future.
By Gunnar Jakob Briem on 10/27/2020
Sections 1-5 are great. Sections 6 and 7 were too much time spent on training specific to tools I don't expect to be using. Sections 8 and 9 were really useful.
By Marites N Fernandez on 10/23/2020
Perfect match, easy to understand and not boring.
By James Mckee-sessions on 10/22/2020
Thus far the steady high level walkthrough paired with the visual aids is Exceptional.
