Welcome to your introductory video on PSM-1™ certification for Scrum! In this lecture, we will discuss what PSM-1™ certification is, why it is important, and how you can prepare for it. So, let's get started with our journey to get PSM-1 certified.
Introduction to PSM™ 1
Professional Scrum Master™ level 1, or PSM-1™, is a certification program offered by Scrum.org, the leading global Scrum training and certification provider. The PSM-1™ is designed to validate your knowledge and understanding of Scrum and your ability to apply Scrum principles and practices in real-world situations.
The PSM-1™ certification is intended for individuals who want to demonstrate their expertise in Scrum, including Scrum Masters, product owners, developers, and other professionals involved in Scrum-based projects.

Also, even though the PSM™ test is an open-book test, it is challenging. To become a PSM-1™ certified professional, you need to have good knowledge of SCRUM overall, or as my teacher used to say, you should eat up the entire Scrum Guide - not literally.
Some of the questions are challenging and scenario-based. You rarely get questions with direct definitions/answers in the Scrum.org guide. It is also fair, as the purpose of any certification should be to test the execution and application of your acquired knowledge.
