Certification Professional Scrum Developer™ (PSD)

Professional Scrum Developer™ (PSD) addresses product development within a Scrum Team. This Scrum.org pathway concerns the accountabilities of Developers and practices that support a usable Increment. It connects technical decisions with collaboration and quality rather than treating development as separate individual tasks without a shared outcome.

Relevant preparation can examine how to make work transparent, verify quality and adapt the plan during a Sprint. Scenarios support discussion of dependencies, technical difficulties and what it means for work to be done. Shared responsibility for the Increment provides a useful theme for understanding these decisions. The programme should be compared with Scrum.org's expected competencies and the participant's experience. Concrete delivery examples strengthen preparation beyond memorising Scrum events. They also help distinguish progress on individual activities from the team's ability to produce an integrated result that meets its agreed quality expectations.
