Are the online courses certified?
Yes! All online courses at Agile Academy lead to Certified by Agile Academy certification. After completing the requirements for your chosen level (Understand, Apply, or Teach), you'll receive a digital certificate—valid for life, with no renewal fees.
Our certification tracks are designed to help you understand, apply, and eventually teach agile skills across team, organizational, and enterprise levels. The certificate proves your learning outcomes and can be shared with employers and peers.
Do I need other certifications?
Not really. Certified by Agile Academy gives you both credibility and practical validation. You invest once, build real skills, and keep the credential for life.
That said, if your employer specifically requires a Scrum.org credential, our online courses give you the knowledge to take their assessments independently. Scrum.org charges separate exam fees (around $150 for PSM I), and you register directly with them.
Can I get Scrum Alliance certification through e-learning?
No. Scrum Alliance only certifies through live training—you can't earn their credentials via self-paced online courses.
We believe this approach is too restrictive. That's exactly why we created Certified by Agile Academy: to give you the flexibility to learn how you want (self-paced, live, or blended) while still earning a recognized, lifetime credential.
If you absolutely need a Scrum Alliance credential, get in touch with us. We can work with our ambassadors and partners to find a solution that fits your needs.
