  • SAFe Agilist Certification Overview

    Your SAFe Agilist Isn't a Certificate. It's Your Non-Negotiable Pass to Senior Roles You are already coordinating sprints. You might be a successful Scrum Master, Team Lead, or Project Manager. But you feel stalled. Your individual team is effective, but the larger enterprise fails to deliver seamlessly. You are ensnared in dependency hell, constantly waiting for other teams, encountering friction with "waterfall" VPs, and your current "agile" deployment acts as a bottleneck that cannot scale across the organization. Simultaneously, SAFe-certified Agilists are organizing Program Increments (PIs), facilitating the operations of Agile Release Trains (ARTs), and demanding compensation that is 30?50% higher because they articulate the priorities of the business, not just the details of the team. Your r?sum? is disregarded for roles like Enterprise Coach, Release Train Engineer (RTE), or strategic Program Manager simply because you lack the "SAFe" credential. That impediment ends today. This is not simply another 2-day session designed only to make you memorize the SAFe framework. Our SAFe Agilist Training Program was created by battle-tested SAFe Program Consultants (SPCs) who have deployed SAFe successfully in the challenging environments of Indian IT services, financial institutions, and telecommunications?settings characterized by extensive legacy systems, resistant mid-level management, and globally distributed personnel. They have constructed this program specifically to instruct you on the SAFe framework while simultaneously demonstrating its practical application for synchronizing dozens of teams and consistently delivering business value, even when the PI plan is inevitably disrupted. In contrast to certification mills that merely seek payment for a quick 2-day pass, we focus on developing true enterprise leadership capability. You will master how to develop the financial justification for adopting SAFe, how to facilitate a PI Planning event that genuinely establishes alignment (rather than just creating a lengthy 2-day meeting), and how to manage the complete flow of value instead of only tracking low-level story points. The exam serves as just the official confirmation?the true benefit is entering your next leadership discussion and confidently articulating a strategy for coordinating 10 teams, presenting a compelling strategic vision for the Agile Release Train, and leading with clear authority, rather than relying only on influence. We have structured this SAFe Agilist course specifically for working professionals who cannot afford to interrupt their careers to obtain certification. We offer both weekday evening and weekend cohorts, which are fully interactive with live Q&A throughout. Every instructional session is recorded for review. Beyond the core training, you receive practical PI Planning toolkits, templates for value stream mapping, 24/7 expert support, and complete, end-to-end assistance with the entire certification process?guaranteeing your success on the exam within your 30-day window.

    Eligibility and Pre-requisites

    This program differs from the PMP. There are no complicated spreadsheets for tracking experience hours or formal applications requiring an audit. The process is direct and structured for professionals prepared to advance their skills. Scaled Agile has established distinct, unambiguous requirements.

    Eligibility Criteria:

    Attend the 2-Day Leading SAFe Course: This is the single mandatory prerequisite. You are ineligible to attempt the examination without successfully completing an official SAFe Agilist course offered by a Scaled Agile Gold Partner, such as this one.

    Recommended Experience: While enrollment is open to everyone, Scaled Agile advises having 5+ years of background in product, software development, business analysis, testing, or project management fields.

    Recommended Agile Knowledge: Possessing a foundational knowledge of Scrum is highly advantageous. This training builds upon those fundamental concepts and expands their application to the enterprise level.

    Course Modules & Curriculum

    Module 1 Foundations of Enterprise Agility
    Lesson 1: Thriving in the Digital Age

    Master the core concepts of business agility and the seven core competencies of the Lean Enterprise. Understand why organizations are failing to adapt and how SAFe provides the operational framework to win. This initial part of your SAFe Agilist training sets the stage for the entire system.

    Lesson 2: The Lean-Agile Mindset

    Stop just "doing Agile" and start "being Agile." Internalize the SAFe House of Lean and the Agile Manifesto's principles at scale. Learn to embrace the mindset shift required from leadership to drive real, sustainable change.

    Lesson 3: SAFe Lean-Agile Principles

    Learn the 10 core principles that form the foundation of SAFe. You'll move beyond simple rules and learn to use these principles (like "Take an economic view" and "Apply systems thinking") to make complex decisions in your own organization.

    Module 2 Team & Technical Agility
    Lesson 1: Building High-Performing Agile Teams

    Deconstruct the structure of the Agile Team in SAFe (Scrum, Kanban). Understand the roles of the Scrum Master and Product Owner and how they coordinate to deliver value in every iteration.

    Lesson 2: Built-in Quality Practices

    Quality isn't a "testing phase"?it's a prerequisite. Master the technical practices of Built-in Quality, including Test-Driven Development (TDD), Behavior-Driven Development (BDD), and Agile testing, that are non-negotiable for scaling.

    Lesson 3: Organizing Around Agile Release Trains (ARTs)

    This is where SAFe scales. Learn the structure, roles, and events of the Agile Release Train (ART), the "team of teams" that serves as the primary value delivery mechanism. This SAFe Agilist course module is critical.

    Module 3 Agile Product Delivery
    Lesson 1: Customer Centricity & Design Thinking

    Stop building what you think the customer wants. Learn to apply Design Thinking and Customer Centricity to ensure the ART is always building the right solution for the right market.

    Lesson 2: Mastering PI Planning Simulation

    This is the core of the course. You will participate in a comprehensive, hands-on simulation of a Program Increment (PI) Planning event. You'll learn to draft PI Objectives, map dependencies, and create a predictable plan.

    Lesson 3: DevOps & the Continuous Delivery Pipeline

    An ART's plan is useless if it can't release. Master the "CALMR" approach to DevOps and understand how the Continuous Delivery Pipeline (Explore, Integrate, Deploy, Release) enables value to flow on demand.

    Module 4 Lean Portfolio Management
    Lesson 1: Defining the SAFe Portfolio

    Cut through the project-based bureaucracy. Learn how Lean Portfolio Management (LPM) aligns strategy with execution. Understand how to connect the portfolio to the enterprise strategy.

    Lesson 2: Strategic Themes & Lean Budgeting

    Translate your company's strategic themes into a tangible Portfolio Vision. Learn how to fund Value Streams instead of projects, enabling flow and reducing overhead.

    Lesson 3: Portfolio Kanban & Governance

    Establish the flow of work. Learn to use the Portfolio Kanban system to manage the intake of new initiatives (Epics) and how Lean Governance empowers decentralized decision-making.

    Module 5 Leading the Transformation
    Lesson 1: Leading as a SAFe Agilist

    Understand your new role as a Lean-Agile leader. This isn't about command-and-control; it's about coaching, empowering, and leading the change from the front.

    Lesson 2: Driving the Change

    Change is hard. Learn why transformation efforts fail and how to use the SAFe Implementation Roadmap as a proven blueprint for success. This lesson is vital for anyone taking a SAFe Agilist certification course to become a change agent.

    Lesson 3: Exam Strategy & Final Review

    Consolidate your knowledge and prepare for the exam. We'll provide targeted test-taking strategies, review the exam format, and run a final Q&A to ensure you are 100% ready to pass on the first attempt.

    SAFe Agilist Certification & Exam FAQ

    Find answers to common questions about our course and certification

    What is SAFe?
    SAFe, or the Scaled Agile Framework, is a system for executing Agile, Lean, and DevOps methods throughout an organization. It?s a group of principles, practices, and workflows intended to help large businesses provide complex solutions with dependable results and high quality. It?s not meant to replace Scrum; rather, it?s a method to enable Scrum and other agile techniques to function for hundreds, or even thousands, of people.
    What is a "SAFe Agilist" (SA)?
    A SAFe Agilist (SA) is a professional who has successfully completed the Leading SAFe? exam. This certification confirms that you possess the knowledge to implement the SAFe framework, Lean-Agile concepts, and procedures of an Agile Release Train (ART) to guide an enterprise-agile transformation. It proves you are fluent in the language of scaled agility.
    What are the eligibility requirements for the SAFe Agilist certification?
    The sole mandatory requirement specified by Scaled Agile, Inc. is that you must attend the 2-day Leading SAFe? course from an authorized provider, such as this one. There are no prerequisite certifications or logs of experience hours needed to take the exam. However, 5+ years of background in IT, project management, or Scrum is strongly advised.
    How much does the SAFe Agilist exam cost?
    The fee for your initial exam attempt is covered in our SAFe Agilist training course cost. You do not pay anything extra to Scaled Agile. This is a significant distinction from PMP. Should you need to attempt the exam again, the retake fee is $50, which is paid directly to Scaled Agile.
    What is the format of the Leading SAFe exam?
    The exam consists of 45 multiple-choice questions. It is administered online, is closed-book, and is timed. You will have 90 minutes (1.5 hours) to complete it.
    What is the passing score for the SAFe Agilist exam?
    You must answer 36 out of 45 questions correctly to pass. This equates to an 80% passing score. Our course materials and exam practice tests are designed to get you well beyond this benchmark.
    Can I take the SAFe Agilist exam online?
    Yes. The exam is delivered online via the SAFe Community Platform. You can take it from your personal computer at any time within your 30-day access window. Unlike the PMP, it is not proctored, but it is timed and closed-book.
    What happens if I fail the exam?
    Failing is a temporary setback, but our program aims for success on the first try. If you do not pass, you can retake the exam for a $50 charge. There is a 10-day waiting period for the second attempt and a 30-day wait for the third. Our pass guarantee means we'll support you with extended access and coaching in your region.
    How long is my SAFe Agilist certification valid?
    Your certification is valid for twelve months. SAFe is an evolving framework, and this yearly renewal ensures that certified professionals remain current with the newest practices.
    How do I renew my certification?
    Renewal is simple. You must remit an annual renewal fee (typically $100) directly to Scaled Agile. No exam is required to renew this certification, but you must maintain membership in the SAFe Community Platform.
    What is an Agile Release Train (ART)?
    The ART is the essential element of SAFe. It's a persistent, virtual "team of teams" (typically 50-125 individuals) that comprises all the necessary roles and resources to build and deliver solutions. It is structured around a value stream and operates on a set rhythm known as a Program Increment (PI).
    What is PI Planning?
    PI Planning is the most vital event in SAFe. It is an intensive 2-day workshop where all teams on the ART gather to plan the upcoming 8?12 weeks of effort (the Program Increment). This SAFe Agilist course includes a complete simulation of this event.
    How is SAFe different from Scrum?
    Scrum is a framework for a single team (5?11 individuals). SAFe is a framework for an enterprise (dozens or hundreds of teams). SAFe utilizes Scrum at the team level but adds the necessary roles, events, and artifacts (such as ARTs, PI Planning, and Lean Portfolio Management) to coordinate those teams and ensure they align with the business strategy.
    Is this SAFe Agilist training course right for me if I'm a PMP?
    Absolutely. Many businesses transitioning to SAFe are looking for their PMPs and Project Managers to step into new strategic positions such as Release Train Engineer (RTE) or Product Manager. This certification serves as the link from conventional project management to enterprise-agile leadership.
    What are the SAFe Core Competencies?
    The framework is founded on seven core competencies: Lean-Agile Leadership, Team and Technical Agility, Agile Product Delivery, Enterprise Solution Delivery, Lean Portfolio Management, Organizational Agility, and a Continuous Learning Culture. This course addresses every one of them.

    Course & Support

    How long does the training take to complete?
    The live training is a 16-hour, intensive program. We offer it in two primary formats: a 2-day weekend bootcamp (8 hours/day) or a 4-day weekday-evening batch (4 hours/day).
    What are the different training formats available?
    We offer three modalities: E-Learning (self-paced), Instructor-Led Live Class (our most popular online option), and Classroom Training (an in-person, immersive experience in cities like Bangalore, Mumbai, and Delhi).
    Are the classes live or just pre-recorded videos?
    Our sessions are 100% live and fully interactive. This is not a passive video course. You will engage in real-time discussions, breakout sessions for PI Planning, and live Q&A with your SAFe Program Consultant (SPC).
    What if a work commitment forces me to miss a scheduled class?
    You won't fall behind. Every session is recorded and available within 24 hours. You also have the flexibility to attend the same session in any other running batch at no extra cost.
    How flexible is the program if my schedule changes?
    Completely flexible. You can switch between different batches (e.g., from weekends to weekdays) or formats (online to in-person) at any time during your program without penalty.
    Who are the instructors?
    Our instructors are Scaled Agile-vetted, practicing SPCs. You learn from professionals who are actively leading SAFe transformations in major Indian and global companies, not just trainers who only teach.

    We maintain small batch sizes intentionally (typically 15-20 participants). This ensures every participant gets personalized attention and has ample opportunity to interact with the instructor and their peers.
    Is there a difference between the weekday and weekend batches?
    No. The official 16-hour Scaled Agile curriculum, expert instructors, and hands-on PI Planning simulation are identical. The only difference is the schedule, designed to fit your professional life.
