About Course
About Certified ScrumMaster Training (Scrum Alliance)
The tricity's project work divides cleanly. IT services and business operations employers run delivery for northern Indian and overseas clients, and their managers work to contractual commitments every week. Around them sits a base of small and mid-size manufacturers in the industrial sectors, pharmaceutical units supplying national chains, and a dense cluster of education and training institutions whose own programmes are managed like projects.
A candidate here can move between the delivery track and the industrial track, and the method is the portable part of the profile. Delivery managers need status discipline; manufacturers need a plan that survives a customer audit; educational employers need someone who can write a proposal with a budget and a timeline. Salaries sit below the metro market, so certifications and portfolio evidence carry more weight.
This Chandigarh page carries the same 12-week, 72-hour Certified ScrumMaster Training (Scrum Alliance) syllabus, faculty and assessment as the master programme, delivered live online and in hybrid format, with classroom batches at our Thoraipakkam centre.
Course Overview
12-week Certified ScrumMaster training: the Scrum Guide, servant leadership, event facilitation, backlog practice, a sprint simulation and the 60-question CSM exam.
Why Learn Certified ScrumMaster Training (Scrum Alliance)
Delivery employers in the tricity promote people who can run a contract on their own, and a method named on paper is the fastest way to be trusted with one.
Pharmaceutical units here ask for validation awareness in project roles, which separates candidates who have worked in regulated manufacturing from those who have not.
Training institutions in the region plan cohorts against fixed start dates, so a candidate who can schedule a rolling intake is hired ahead of a generalist.

Hands-on Practice and Capstone
Capstone: Facilitate one complete sprint with a simulated team of five and a Product Owner: run Planning against a real backlog, coach the Daily Scrum, inspect the Increment with stakeholders at the Review, and close with a Retrospective that produces one agreed improvement. You are observed throughout, and the work ends with two timed 60-question practice papers and a written review of your facilitation decisions.
Production scenario: Two weeks into a sprint the team has not shown a working increment, the Product Owner is assigning tickets directly to developers, and a senior stakeholder keeps interrupting the stand-up. Decide what you change, what you leave alone, and what you say in the next retrospective.

Frequently Asked Questions
What is Certified ScrumMaster training at SkilBrill?
It is preparation for the Scrum Alliance Certified ScrumMaster exam, taught on the Scrum Guide as published: three pillars, five values, three accountabilities, five events and three artifacts. The course runs over 12 weeks and 72 hours, with a live sprint simulation and two timed practice papers at the end.
How is this different from the Professional ScrumMaster course on this site?
The CSM is a Scrum Alliance credential earned through an authorised course, with the exam bundled into the course and renewal every three years through 20 SEUs. The PSM I is a Scrum.org assessment, open to any candidate with no course attached, paid for separately and never renewed. This course prepares you for the CSM exam.
What does the CSM exam actually ask?
The exam is 60 multiple-choice questions in 90 minutes, and you need 70% to pass. Most items are short scenarios about a team, a Product Owner and a Scrum Master, and the answer is decided by the Scrum Guide rather than by local practice. You may use the Scrum Guide during the exam, and the pass mark does not move between attempts.
Do I need a Scrum job or a Scrum certification to join?
No. You need no prior certification and no current Scrum role to start. The course assumes you have worked on a team that ships something, because the exam scenarios are about real team behaviour. If Scrum is new to you, the first two modules build the vocabulary and the pillars before the events and artifacts are examined.
What does the CSM syllabus cover?
Eight modules: the Scrum Guide theory, the three accountabilities, the five events, the three artifacts, servant leadership and facilitation, stakeholder and quality practice, exam preparation with two timed papers, and a capstone in which you facilitate a complete sprint with a simulated team and a Product Owner.
What is the duration and fee?
Twelve weeks, three sessions a week of two hours each, totalling 72 hours, with the sprint simulation scheduled inside the course. Fees run from Rs 45,000 depending on batch and mode, with classroom, live online and hybrid options and placement support through 200+ hiring partners.
What certificate do I receive?
A SkilBrill Course Completion Certificate for the full 72 hours of the programme. The Certified ScrumMaster credential is issued by Scrum Alliance after you pass the exam, and it stays valid for three years, after which 20 SEUs keep it current. SkilBrill prepares you for that exam; it does not issue it.
Is classroom training available in Chandigarh?
No. SkilBrill's classroom runs only in Chennai. Learners in Chandigarh join the same live online / hybrid cohort taught by the Chennai faculty, with proctored labs and the same placement support.
Which companies hire for these skills in Chandigarh?
Learners in Chandigarh typically target a mix of MNCs and startups such as Infosys, Tech Mahindra. The programme's placement support applies equally to Chandigarh learners.
