Frequently Asked Questions

Yes! The Full CCSMP program includes all of your training and certifications. Click here to review the detailed list of what’s included.

To an extent the length of time it takes you to complete all four ten training modules and pass all four certification levels is up to you. Your fees include 12 months access to the Practical CSM Academy, but most people should be able to complete the program with three to six months or maybe even faster if they study the program full time

Not everyone is cut out to be a CSM, and so if within the first 30 days you try out our training and find for whatever reason that it’s not for you, you can let us know and we’ll give you a refund in full. Our only stipulation is firstly that you have completed the first module, and secondly that you have not started the third module. After all, we are selling an information product and trying out the first two modules will be sufficient for you to know whether the program is for you or not.

Yes, this is a self-study program and all of the materials are available online via the Practical CSM Academy website. Some of the materials you must study whilst actually connected to the Internet, other materials you can download and study remotely (for example whilst travelling).

Absolutely! During the live training and coaching sessions you will be able to put your own questions directly to our expert trainers and coaches, and you can also submit your questions to us at any time via the community forum.

Like most professional training and certification programs, the CCSMP program is charged for up front in advance. However we do sometimes offer our students the ability to spread the payment over two instalments. To view our current fees and payment options please see above. For one to one advice please email us at student@practicalcsm.com

We are very confident that (like all our customers) you will be really pleased with your purchase. But if you purchase membership to the Practical CSM Academy and then find you do not like it, simply let us know within 30 days of your purchase and we will cancel your membership and refund your money in full. Because what we sell is an informational product we do have certain rules around this. Firstly, you must have completed at least the first 5 lessons within Module One (so we know you have given it a proper trial). Secondly you must not have started Module Two (so we know you haven’t already received all the information and want to have it for free).
