APMG International AgilePM Foundation Level Sample Questions

If you last looked at DSDM certification a few years ago, one thing has moved: APMG International's AgilePM scheme is now on AgilePM version 3, which gives Scrum a syllabus topic of its own. The entry exam, AgilePM Foundation, is still 50 multiple-choice questions in 40 minutes, costs USD $386 and needs 60% (30 correct answers) to pass, and the certificate never expires. Most candidates are ready for this recall exam after three to four weeks of steady study.

Version 3 is the current edition on APMG International's AgilePM page, which we checked in September 2026. If a study guide, a course handout or an old forum thread describes an earlier edition, treat the Scrum material in it with caution and rely on the syllabus below instead.

This guide is for project managers, team leaders, business analysts and team members who have been told to "get agile" and want a recognised qualification that goes beyond a two-day workshop. It explains what the exam is, what it covers, how the DSDM ideas turn into questions, how to plan four weeks of study, and where the certificate leads.
