Becoming a SPC is a dream many have but only a few can realize. Here’s a simple guide to help you pass the SPC Certification.
Before we proceed, here’s a word of advice. Go for the SPC exam only if you truly wish to become a SAFe® Program Consultant. If you aspire to become an Agile Coach and then need to lead the SAFe® implementation in your organization, becoming a SAFe® Program Consultant is the right choice.
We’ve broken down the process into 3 steps to help you with the SPC exam-
1. Gather the Study Content: The first step is to go to the Scaled Agile Community website and download the workbook from the Learn > My Learning section. Study the entire workbook. This will help you become confident.
2. Take a practice test: Once you complete the steps mentioned you will be eligible to take the practice test. It’s now time to assess your preparation. This will help you know where you stand.
Take the exam and a score of 80 or 90 should be good enough. Anything below requires serious preparation. Aim to learn the concepts and not rote learning.
You can go to specific topics and read in scaledagileframework.com that you think you are not good at in the practice test.
3. Learn using different methods: Reading over and over again won’t help. Instead, you can try the following methods-
Explain the Big Picture to someone If you’re able to explain the elements in the SAFe® Big Picture then you're on the right track.
Work on a case study Apply your knowledge using a real or fictitious company. Create a hypothetical problem and apply your SAFe® knowledge to the situation. An SPC is a change agent who drives transformation by using SAFe®.
Critically analyze and Analyze the case study from the SAFe® perspective. Assess the performance as you would in your job as a SPC for an organization. It would be better if you could get someone knowledgeable to review it.
Important Tips to Write the Exam
Writing the SPC exam can be nerve-racking but there’s always a first. Make sure you have a stable internet connection so you can finish the exam before the deadline.
Write the exam by keeping the time in mind. Review all the answers before submitting. Only change the answer if you are sure and not on impulse.
