How does AgilePM® Foundation and Practitioner certification look like?
The AgilePM® Foundation exam has a form of test containing 50 single-choice questions. In order to pass the exam, you have to correctly answer to half of questions, that is, acquire at least 25 points. The exam lasts for 40 minutes. Candidates, who will acquire the required number of points at the exam, will receive an accredited certificate that is valid indefinitely. The completion of the Foundation certificate is necessary if you want to apply for the Practitioner certificate.
The AgilePM® Practitioner-level exam is also carried out in test form, but it consists of four areas of questions referring to a described scenario. The maximum number of points that you can acquire is 80 and in order to pass the exam you need 50% of correct answers, that is, 40 points. The Practitioner exam lasts significantly longer than the Foundation exam – 150 minutes. The AgilePM® Practitioner certificate is also valid indefinitely.
You can approach both the Foundation and Practitioner exams in Polish or English language. At the Practitioner level you are allowed to use the official AgilePM® Agile Project Management Handbook v2.
