You’ll receive an email on how to prepare before the course. This will include guidance on articles and videos to read, watch and review, and how to prepare for the exam. There’ll also be information about the test and SAFe® certification

A test exam should be passed as preparation for the final exam.

The test exam is very similar to the final test and can be taken continuously until passed. This indicates whether you are ready to pass the final exam.

About your certification

The exam is in English and is multiple-choice. It’s also a so-called web-based closed book and has a time-limited certification.

The test will be available through the SAFe® Community Platform. You’ll receive your login for the platform on the final day of the course.

Both the test and the final exam have 45 questions that must be answered within 90 minutes.
