Is this training free, and how do I start?
The course overview is public. Sign in with a free READY account to use all 8 guided modules and save your progress. A free account is required to start learning. Existing members can sign in.
Does completing training mean I am certified?
No. Course completion and an optional READY learning certificate are separate from READYScore job-role certification. The member experience shows certificate eligibility and the existing READY$ policy.
Is this an official vendor course or credential?
Original, independent READY preparation. READY does not issue a third-party Scrum certification and is not affiliated with or endorsed by Scrum.org, Scrum Alliance or another credential provider. Training does not guarantee exam success or confer a vendor credential.
Does this assert learning hours or CEU/CPE eligibility?
The member course page shows the current estimated learning time and certificate eligibility. READY learning records do not guarantee that an outside provider will accept CEU/CPE credit; check that provider’s requirements. Existing certificate records are preserved.
