If you have a Scrum Alliance certification, your certification is good for two years. Then, you can renew your certification, a process that involves paying a renewal fee and collecting Scrum Education Units (SEUs) to prove your Scrum prowess. Each hour of your continuing education — the time you spend reading articles, volunteering, attending events, and taking courses — equals one Scrum Education Unit (SEU).

In addition to needing SEUs to renew you Scrum Alliance certifications, SEUs are a great way to track your continued learning and growth in Scrum concepts. Your Scrum journey doesn’t stop with the training and certification. SEUs help you create a plan to continue growing in your Agile expertise. By working through SEUs, you can hear other perspectives, learn new concepts, practice concepts you have learned, and demonstrate advanced critical thinking into Scrum concepts.
You can obtain SEUs from a variety of ways (see Figure 2). Some options include:
