    Market Forces Driving Scrum Master Demand in Botswana

    Digital Transformation Skills Gap

    Botswana's SmartBots strategy is moving public services online and connecting schools and villages, but delivery teams often lack trained Scrum Masters to run agile projects to plan.

    CSM builds agile delivery and facilitation skills

    Banking Modernisation Pressure

    Banks are launching mobile wallets, online payments and digital platforms, and they need Scrum Masters who can facilitate fast, iterative releases without losing quality or focus.

    CSM equips Scrum Masters for iterative delivery

    Scarce Certified Agile Talent

    Botswana has a growing pool of developers and project managers but few certified Scrum Masters. The CSM credential makes holders visible and sought-after to local employers.

    CSM makes certified Scrum Masters stand out

    Telecoms and Connectivity Rollout

    Operators expanding 4G, 5G and fibre run complex, concurrent programmes that benefit from Scrum's cadence, transparency and impediment removal to keep delivery on track.

    CSM builds team facilitation and coordination skills

    Public Sector Delivery Efficiency

    Government digitisation projects demand clearer progress visibility and faster course correction, exactly what Scrum's inspect-and-adapt approach and a trained Scrum Master provide.

    CSM strengthens transparency and adaptation

    Diversifying Beyond Mining

    As Vision 2036 pushes Botswana toward a knowledge-based economy, technology and services firms need agile ways of working and Scrum Masters to lead the change.

    CSM supports the knowledge-economy shift

    Facilitating the Five Scrum Events

    Run the Sprint, Sprint Planning, Daily Scrum, Sprint Review and Sprint Retrospective within their timeboxes, and learn facilitation techniques that keep events productive and focused on the Sprint Goal.

    Managing Scrum Artefacts and Commitments

    Work with the Product Backlog, Sprint Backlog and Increment, and their commitments, the Product Goal, Sprint Goal and Definition of Done, to create transparency and a shared standard of quality.

    Leading as a Servant-Leader Scrum Master

    Pricing

    CSM training fees vary by format and are available on request in your local currency. The CSM exam fee is typically included in the course fee paid to the training provider, and a two-year Scrum Alliance membership is included on passing. Request a quote for current pricing.

    What is included in the CSM course fee?

    The fee typically includes Scrum Alliance aligned courseware, instruction from a Certified Scrum Trainer, practice questions, exam guidance, and a two-year Scrum Alliance membership with a digital badge on passing. Ask a learning advisor for a full inclusions list.

    Is the exam fee included in the training price?

    In most cases, yes. For CSM, the exam is taken through the Scrum Alliance portal after the course, and the exam fee is usually bundled into the course fee paid to the provider. Confirm this when you request a quote.

    Exam

    What is the format of the CSM exam?

    The CSM exam is an open-book, online, multiple-choice test taken through the Scrum Alliance portal after you complete an approved course. It is based on the Scrum Alliance CSM Learning Objectives and the current Scrum Guide, the November 2020 edition.

    How many questions are on the CSM exam and how long is it?

    The CSM exam has 50 multiple-choice questions and a time limit of 60 minutes. It is open book, so you can refer to materials during the exam, and it is taken online without a proctor.

    What is the passing score for the CSM exam?

    The pass mark is 74%, which means answering at least 37 of the 50 questions correctly. Aim for broad understanding across all six CSM topic areas rather than memorising isolated facts.

    How many attempts do I get and when can I sit the exam?

    You have up to three attempts to pass the CSM exam within 90 days of completing your course. If you do not pass within those attempts, verify the current retake policy on the Scrum Alliance portal.

    Which standard is the CSM exam based on?

    The exam is aligned to the Scrum Alliance CSM Learning Objectives and the current Scrum Guide by Ken Schwaber and Jeff Sutherland, the November 2020 edition, which introduced the Product Goal and framed the Sprint Goal and Definition of Done as commitments.

    Course Content

    What topics does the CSM training cover?

    The training covers the six CSM topic areas: Scrum theory and principles, the five Scrum values, the Scrum team, the five Scrum events, the three Scrum artefacts, and the Scrum Master role, all aligned to the Scrum Alliance CSM Learning Objectives.

    How long is the CSM course?

    The CSM course is a 16-hour programme, delivered either as two full days or four half-days depending on the schedule. It is led live by a Certified Scrum Trainer and meets Scrum Alliance course requirements.

    Can a beginner take this course?

    Yes. The CSM is designed for professionals new to Scrum as well as those formalising existing knowledge. No prior experience is required, and the trainer builds concepts from the ground up with hands-on exercises and realistic scenarios.

    What learning materials are provided?

    You receive Scrum Alliance aligned courseware, case studies illustrating facilitation and impediment removal, practice questions in the CSM exam format, and guidance to earn Scrum Education Units for future renewal.

    What is the next step after CSM?

    The Advanced Certified ScrumMaster (A-CSM) is the next level in the Scrum Alliance Scrum Master track, covering advanced facilitation and coaching. The CSM is the mandatory prerequisite, and A-CSM also requires time spent in a Scrum Master role after earning the CSM.

    Enrollment

    How do I enrol in the CSM course?

    You can enrol through the Invensis Learning website. Choose your preferred format, complete payment, and you will receive access to schedules, courseware and learning resources. Talk to a learning advisor if you need help choosing a batch.

    What training formats are available in Botswana?

    How soon can I start?

    New CSM batches run regularly in live virtual and classroom formats. See upcoming schedules on our website, or speak with a learning advisor to find the next batch that suits you.

    Can I reschedule or transfer my enrolment?

    Yes. Flexible options let you reschedule or transfer to another batch on selected plans. Contact our support team to arrange this before your session.

    What is the refund or cancellation policy?
