What SAFe SSM covers
SAFe Scrum Master certifies the ability to serve an Agile Team within a SAFe enterprise: facilitating the team events, supporting PI Planning and the Agile Release Train, coordinating with other teams, applying Lean-Agile principles and the SAFe implementation roadmap, and improving flow across the train rather than only within one team.
Who it is for
Scrum Masters and team leads in organisations that have adopted SAFe, and anyone joining an Agile Release Train.
Before you book
Attending the official SAFe Scrum Master course is required to sit the exam. Scrum experience is assumed.

No. Scaled Agile requires attendance at the official course, and the exam attempt is included with it. This is the main structural difference from Scrum.org, where anyone can sit the assessment.
PSM I is about Scrum on one team. SSM is about a Scrum Master operating inside a train of many teams: PI Planning, cross-team dependencies, the Agile Release Train, and Lean-Agile principles that have no equivalent in the Scrum Guide.
Yes. SAFe certifications renew annually and carry a renewal fee, unlike Scrum.org credentials.
