Sir, their ‘great job” comes after years of denying Agile was a real thing, and only comes NOW as a way to continue bringing in the cash. My opinion. They understand it so well because they asked Agile leaders to understand it for them. The ScrumMaster certification is worth “this person has heard of this stuff” but can you so easily discredit the CSP?

I personally feel the PMI has done a great job in defining the scope of the Agile Certification. It is comprehensive and reflects the Agile Body of Knowledge in its true spirit as I have known, having been a practitioner and now an Agile coach for over a decade.
continue bI am surprised how a legacy organization like PMI could understand the spirit of Agile so well, while organizations like the Scrum Alliance were fooling around with Scrum Master Certification.

I honestly feel that the PMI-ACP certification outline and process is far far superior and credible than the Scrum certifications on offer. When I did my CSM, it was a joke...there was not even an exam or a test at the end of the course at that time.
