How will this course help me progress?
The SAFe® Scrum Master course shows you how to excel in the Scrum Master role within the SAFe framework. We’ll guide you on what it takes to succeed in a scaled-agile environment and effectively support your teams along the way.
As Scrum Masters, our goal isn’t to work harder but smarter with our teams.
This is where your journey begins!
Scrum Masters are an indispensable part of any agile team. Unfortunately, their role is often underestimated—or even left out entirely—in scaled agility (SHOCKING!).
Am I the right person for this course?
Let’s start with the most important part: YES! Anyone interested in implementing and advancing agile principles in teams is in the right place—Scrum Masters included!
Why choose Nerd Republic?
Because we love working with people! We say this intentionally because, in our experience, the Scrum Master role is often seen as a purely technical function, focused mainly on coordinating event schedules. But we’ll show you the passion behind working with people, supporting teams, and helping them achieve their best. The "bit of" Scrum and SAFe is just the vehicle for that. ;-)
In this course, you’ll gain a clear understanding of the Scrum Master role within the lean-agile SAFe environment. Together, we’ll dive into the heart of the framework: the PI-Planning Event. Building on that, we’ll explore the Scrum Master’s responsibilities during team iterations within the SAFe context and provide you with valuable tips on how to coach and develop your team effectively.

A common question we get in advance is whether you need to already be a certified Scrum Master (e.g., through Scrum.org). The answer: No, it’s not a requirement. However, it’s helpful if you have experience working in an agile environment or even with a SAFe implementation.
This course is typically attended by individuals already serving as Scrum Masters in their organizations who want to learn more about how the role operates in SAFe and explore the similarities and differences. Team leads looking to deepen their understanding of the role and Release Train Engineers will also find this course particularly valuable—especially for gaining insights into training and mentoring Scrum Masters.
While prior knowledge isn’t mandatory, having a basic understanding of agility and Scrum will definitely enhance your learning experience.

We guarantee personalized attention—we’ll gladly explain the same question 20 times if needed. All SAFe® Framework courses include standardized content that must be covered in every class. But here’s the cherry on top: in Nerd Republic’s online course, you’ll get access to plenty of additional materials to help you not only get started but also apply your knowledge with confidence!

Frequently Asked Questions
Is this an official SAFe® course?
Yes, it is! We’re an official Silver Partner of Scaled Agile Inc., and this is an authentic course. To be honest, it's even more than that. We believe two days aren’t enough, so we've added extra content to the course to complement the official material. We think it just makes the experience better—and it will definitely help you progress.
How does the exam process work exactly?
After the course, you’ll gain access to the exam. You then have four weeks to take it independently online on the SAI platform. The exam is “closed-book” and follows a multiple/single-choice format. In our bonus material, you’ll find additional information, practice questions, and exam tips to help you prepare.
For how long have you been doing this?
The Earth has been around for a long time, and we hope it stays that way. (Let’s make a change!) Our trainers have been active in the agile world and with SAFe® for several years. We've guided nearly a thousand people through SAFe® courses, healing minor aches and pains and helping move large corporations forward.
Do I receive PDU & SEU?
These abbreviations are familiar to you, and you need points for your PMI or Scrum certification? Good news! By participating in the course, you will earn these points. You can find the exact points here: https://bit.ly/3QUfOBW
Any info on the timings?
Of course! We start at 9:00 AM and finish the day by 5:30 PM at the latest. We always take a one-hour lunch break, with our suggested time for the group from 12:00 to 1:00 PM. There will also be additional, shorter breaks in between.
Is there a discount on your courses?
Potentially yes! - for those in need. Non-profit organizations, socially disadvantaged individuals, and those with hope are welcome to contact us. We will find solutions. Everyone else can benefit from early bird prices and group discounts.
What system requirements do I need for the remote course?
What hotel should I book?
In the Academy course, we have provided some hotel recommendations. Our training location is always dependent on availability and group size, but all options are close to each other. So, you won't have to travel all over the city at once.
How does catering work?
On both training days, we will provide you with light snacks. Additionally, lunch is on us. There will also be plenty of tea and coffee available, as well as sparkling and still water (the Germans' favorite!). In the remote course, these arrangements will be your responsibility.
Is the course delivery guaranteed?
We always operate under the assumption that we will go ahead with the course. We will inform you at least ten days before the course starts. Of course, unforeseen circumstances can arise on your end as well. If you have booked a course and something comes up, we can simply move you to the next one. Just let us know as soon as possible.
SAFe certification without course?
We often get asked if it's possible to obtain a SAFe certification without taking a course. Unfortunately, it’s not. Unlike Scrum.org, where you can choose to take a course or simply purchase an exam voucher and self-study, SAFe requires registration in a course offered by a SAFe provider to access the exam system. The good news is that the exam fees for your first attempt are included, so you won’t need to book the exam separately as you would with other frameworks.
