Scrum Master Certified (SMC®) professionals have a practical, working knowledge of Scrum that equips them to implement and work in a Scrum environment. The purpose of the exam is to confirm the applicants have achieved sufficient understanding of how to apply Scrum in the projects and to tailor Scrum in a particular scenario.
SMC® professionals are facilitators who ensure that the Scrum Team is provided with an environment conducive to completing the project successfully. The Scrum Master guides, facilitates, and teaches Scrum practices to everyone involved in the project; clears impediments for the team; and ensures that Scrum processes are being followed. Successful candidates will be awarded the Scrum Master Certified (SMC®) certification by SCRUMstudy after passing the certification exam.
• Provide an understanding of the principles in the Scrum framework
• Provide a practical working knowledge of Scrum including roles, meetings, and artifacts.
• Prepare participants to be comfortable with implementing Scrum in their organizations.

This certification is appropriate for anyone who is interested in working as a Scrum Master or for someone
who is already a Scrum master in his organization. Scrum Master is an important role in any Scrum team and
need not be a technology expert to be effective. Moreover, although Scrum is popular in the IT industry, it can
be used effectively across different industries. The SBOK® Guide, on which the SMC course is based on, can
be used as an effective guide for implementation.
There is no formal prerequisite for this certification. However, it is preferable to complete the Scrum Developer
Certified (SDC®) certification before applying for the Scrum Master certification. It is also highly recommended
to attend a 2-day SMC® classroom training provided by a SCRUMstudy approved Authorized Training Partner
