SSM Certification Training Exam Format

The SAFe Scrum Master certification is recognized worldwide. It allows you to move your career forward and achieve professional success. If you are interested in this certification, then you should join a training program provided by an accredited training center. After the training program, you should give an exam and obtain a passing mark to become certified. The SAFe Scrum Master exam is conducted online, and you can access it by logging into the SAFe Community Platform after completing the training. You should know the SSM certification exam pattern before sitting for the exam. It is a timed exam; once the time ends, it will be submitted automatically even if you don’t finish completing all the answers. You will get a score depending on the number of questions answered. The SSM course exam pattern is such that unanswered questions will be marked as incorrect automatically. If you finish your exam before the designated time, you can submit your answers by clicking the ‘submit’ button. Your score will be calculated immediately and you will know whether you have passed the exam.
