Validates knowledge of how Scrum Masters use AI to support teams, including prompting, AI fundamentals, security and ethics.
PSM-AI Essentials is a short assessment on using AI as a Scrum Master, so a good course covers its four question categories and shows you how to apply AI in a Scrum Team. We compared the two Scrum.org options on content, format and price.
Most people should start with Scrum.org's free reading list, which follows the four question categories, then try the free practice assessments. Take the one-day class if your employer pays or you want to practise with AI tools in a group.
Scrum.org's one-day class, taught by a Professional Scrum Trainer, with discussions and exercises using AI tools to support a Scrum Team. It includes a PSM-AI Essentials attempt and 7 PMI PDUs.
Great fit if your employer pays or you want hands-on practice with AI tools and a group
Poor fit if you are paying yourself and are comfortable studying from the free reading list; choose the reading list
