Exam Day:

I sat on exam at 10 August 2020 at midnight. The exam is closed book. The Certified Disciplined Agilist (CDA) test is 50 questions with a 60-minute time limit. To pass the test need 70% marks. I completed the exam within 50 minutes. After submitted “Congratulation” message appeared & I achieved CDA (Certified Disciplined Agilist) certificate.

For DLASM certificate minimum 2 years of agile team experience need as a lead role (PO, TL/SM, AO). I filled the DALSM application as per format & send to PMI by 11 August. Finally, PMI verified my experience and awarded me as a DALSM certified.
