Professional Scrum Facilitation Skills™ Certification
Prove your knowledge of Facilitation Skills
The Professional Scrum Facilitation Skills (PSFS) test is available to students who have participated in a Professional Scrum Facilitation Skills™ class*. Earning the PSFS certification shows that you have demonstrated an understanding on how to harness facilitation principles, skills and techniques, and how effective facilitation can help teams move forward toward their desired outcomes.
This includes leveraging diverse perspectives within a team while working within different team dynamics to improve collaboration and participatory decision making, whether applied to Scrum events or other interactions.
*At this time, only Students attending the PSFS training course have the ability to take the PSFS certification test. Scrum.org will evaluate whether or not to make the certification available in the future to those who have not taken the course.
PSFS includes questions from the following Focus Areas as defined in the Professional Scrum Competencies. While attendance is not a prerequisite, attending the Professional Scrum Master I (PSM I) course is strongly recommended as earning the certificate requires a fundamental understanding of Scrum. The focus areas that this test draws from are those that concern facilitation.

- Facilitation
- Facilitation Principles and Values
