SPC Exam & certification
The Implementing SAFe (SPC) training is a four-day course (8:30 a.m. - 5:30 p.m., including lunch) and is led by one or two SAFe Practice Consultants Trainers (SPCTs). Our consultants are also active in the field themselves and therefore have great experience with implementing SAFe within large organizations.
If you complete the training and pass the exam, you will be a certified SPC. You will receive:
Official SAFe® Practice Consultant (SPC) certificate
Digital badge of the certificate (to share & promote online)
One-year certified membership as a SAFe Practice Consultant, allowing you to access to the SAFe SPC Community of Practice
Access to the online Trainer Enablement materials to gain a qualification to teach and certify others in Leading SAFe (SAFe Agilist SA), SAFe Product Owner/Product Manager (POPM), SAFe Scrum Master (SSM), SAFe Advanced Scrum Master (SASM) and SAFe for Teams.
Access to several learning resources that support certified professionals during their SAFe journey
The Scaled Agile Academy will update your profile as soon as you pass the exam. From then on, you will have access to the private, online community and the possibility to make your profile public within the Scaled Agile community. Until that moment, only you have the privilege to see your certification.
