SAFe Scrum Master 6.0 Exam Format

SSM

Everything the official exam blueprint specifies: question count, time limit, scoring and the weight each domain carries. The SAFe Scrum Master (SSM) certification validates your ability to apply Scrum in a Scaled Agile Framework enterprise. The exam covers four domains that reflect real-world responsibilities: introducing Scrum in SAFe, defining the Scrum Master/Team Coach role, experiencing Program Increment (PI) Planning, and facilitating iteration execution. Candidates must demonstrate they can coach Agile teams, remove impediments, help plan and execute PI events, and foster a culture of relentless improvement. The exam is scenario-based, requiring practical application of SAFe principles. Successful SSMs enable teams to deliver high-quality value in large-scale Lean-Agile environments, aligning with business goals.

An older Scaled Agile study guide still lists 73%, but the current certification page states 80%. 24 CEUs required per 2-year cycle. AI-Empowered (SAFe 6.0) exam includes an AI domain weighted 12-14%. Official exam page
