Who is it for?
The Professional Scrum Master – Advanced (PSM-A) (former PSM 2) training is perfect for experienced Scrum Masters looking to step up their game, advance their skills and maximize their impact. As PSM-A is an advanced course, it is recommended to complete the PSM 1 training course first.
Requirements
Taking part in the PSM-A course requires at least one year of working experience as a Scrum Master or Agile Coach.
PSM-A is an advanced training following the Professional Scrum Master 1 (PSM 1) course. However, completing the PSM 1 training first is not required, just recommended.
Basic knowledge of Scrum or experience working in an Agile environment is required. Participants should have a fundamental understanding of the Scrum framework and its principles.
The PSM-A training will teach you nothing new about Scrum but will help you better understand your accountabilities and how you can improve your Scrum Master skills.

Exam and Certification
After completing the Professional Scrum Master- Advanced (PSM-A) (former PSM 2) training course, you will receive an exam code from Scrum.org. This code is valid indefinitely, allowing you to take the PSM 2 exam online whenever you choose and obtain your PSM 2 certificate.
However, if you take the exam within 14 days of receiving the exam code, you will receive a new attempt for free in case you fail the exam. If you take the exam – and fail – after those 14 days, you will have to retake the exam at your own expense ($250), as those costs are not included in the training price.
