Project Management Institute
PMI Agile Certified Practitioner (PMI-ACP)
Multi-approach agile credential from PMI
This PMI credential spans Scrum, Lean, Kanban, and other approaches, which suits showing agile knowledge beyond Scrum alone.
Who it suits
Suits practitioners with some agile delivery experience who work across frameworks. People aiming specifically for a Scrum Master role will find the Scrum-specific credential closer to the target.
Key differences
- It covers several agile approaches, whereas Professional Scrum Master I concentrates on Scrum theory and the Scrum Master accountability.
- It is written for experienced practitioners and sits at a higher tier than a foundation credential.
- It comes from PMI's project management world instead of the Scrum.org community, so it reads as broader agile practice rather than a Scrum Master role validation.
