Can I still access SAFe 4.5 materials? (Courseware, Framework articles)
Yes, SAFe 4.5 materials are still available. We at Scaled agile highly recommend you migrate to SAFe 4.6 as our knowledge and learnings around the Framework have evolved, and will help you in your SAFe transformations.
I was Certified on SAFe Version 3 or Older, what can I do to Upgrade? (non-SPC or SA certs)
The upgrade path available for SAFe 3 or older certified professionals is to take a SAFe 4.6 course. There are significant enhancements in the SAFe 4 courses. You can search available classes at sai2.wpengine.com/calendar. The SAFe 4 Certification is the most up-to-date Certification available.
I’m a SPC3 or SA3, can I upgrade to 4.6?
For SPC3s and SA3s, the upgrade path to a SAFe 4 certification was available through August 31, 2018. Now you will need to take a 4.6 course because there is no upgrade path from 3.0 to SAFe 4 (Versions 4.0, 4.5 or 4.6). You can search available classes at sai2.wpengine.com/calendar. The SAFe 4 Certification is the most up to date Certification available.
I’m a SPC4 and have my 4.5 validations, do those count for 4.6 or do I need to do 4.6 validations as well?
If you are validated on 4.5 courses, you will automatically be validated to teach the same course(s) for 4.6. We highly recommend you review the Course Delivery Enablement, download the slides to prepare, and watch the Course Delivery Enablement series to help you with your first SAFe 4.6 class. Additionally, if you validate on 4.6, and for some reason you need to teach 4.5, please contact support@scaledagile.com and we will manually validate you to teach that 4.5 course. You will not have to take the 4.5 exam as long as you have passed the 4.6 exam.
