The Scrum Alliance and we CSTs asked the attendees of the Scrum Gathering in Stockholm last week to test the Test that we will use from 1 January to certify ScrumMasters. It was a success and and it will help the test development team to adjust the test.
I mentioned this here in my blog to make everybody aware that we will have a more robust certification process in future. What is basically means, at this point in time. A Certified ScrumMaster class will be the prerequisite for everybody who wants to become a Certified ScrumMaster. But it will not be sufficient anymore. You have to pass an online test after the training also.
Hi Boris,
is it planned that already certified Scrum Masters should “recertify” sometime or is there a right of continuance?

Hi Boris,
I think that this is a huge step forward, but at the same time I really, really think that CST’s and ScrumAlliance have to be very careful about what will be on this online test. The main reason I think of this is to avoid turning the CSM classes in two-day boring, boring classes – today, this classes are very dynamic and cool to attend to – at least your class were a really fun and insightful two-days lesson!
