PSK I Test Questions

Updated on 10 October 2026. What’s new: the certification is lifetime with no annual renewal fee, according to the current Scrum.org assessment page.

Plenty of Scrum Masters assume a Kanban credential means swapping Sprints for a never-ending board. Scrum.org's PSK certification teaches the reverse: keep every Scrum rule and add flow practices on top. The assessment has 45 questions, a 60-minute limit and an 85% passing score, and it costs $200 per attempt. This guide covers what it tests, how to read its questions and how to prepare.

Does adding Kanban mean a Scrum Team drops its Sprints?

No Sprint disappears. The Scrum Guide's accountabilities, events and artifacts all stay in place, and every Sprint still aims at a Done Increment. Kanban sits inside that frame as a way to make the flow of work visible and to steer it with numbers. Scrum.org describes the PSK I certification as validating knowledge of how Scrum Teams can use Scrum with Kanban to support value creation and delivery. Notice the direction of that sentence: the team is a Scrum Team first, and Kanban is something it uses.
