[@jaym6655]

New SUB, great information. Do you recommend getting the SAFE certification? I have seen that in some job postings, one other question, do you have to know about coding in order to become a scrum master or agile coach?

[@ScrumMastered]

Hi Hay, thanks for subscribing. I believe the SAFe certification can be beneficial if you would like to work in bigger organizations because this is what they usually implement. Of course, knowing the fundamentals of Scrum is first though. I am not a programmer, I don't have a degree in computer science, and I can only code in basic HTML. This did not prevent me from being a great Scrum Master and finding success in this career. Now, you surely are to meet developers who will have little respect for you because you are not a developer. I'd say - that's a "them problem", not a "you problem". I am thinking of making a video on this topic. I have an old one I filmed several years ago, so the quality is meh, but it can still be relevant: kzbin.info/www/bejne/fqfUqqGBf7d1p9U

[@Mrotromasnuevo]

Very interesting! Those certifications are only available in English? I'm a spanish speaker.

[@ScrumMastered]

Yes, all of them are in English, unfortunately. I don't think there are any plans to translate them soon. Maybe in a couple of years

[@juditho.3528]

Check coursera

[@Simplenessless]

Amazing video as I am planning to start a career path in scrum.. got a question, in the free attempts you provide for the certification, if one passes the exam does that mean they’ll get certified without taking the exam again on their own post the 2 attempts your course package provides?

[@ScrumMastered]

@Simplenessless if you attend a Scrum.org training, like a PSM I class, you'll get a free attempt at the PSM I assessment. If you pass, you get the certification. If you don't pass, and this was within the 2 weeks after the class, you'll get a second free attempt. If you don't pass that second time, or if you tried the first attempt after 14 days, you'll have to buy other attempts at the assessment out of pocket.

[@KarolBruszewski]

Quick question. Is is possible to work from home (or other place) ONLY and never have a personal meeting with the team during that job? Let say that I would like to work remotely ONLY so I can do it from other part of the world ?

[@ScrumMastered]

I believe some companies offer fully remote jobs, so it's possible

[@cutflow2]

What’s bsm?

[@ScrumMastered]

PSM - Professional Scrum Master. You can learn more about it at Scrum.org
