Where SDP takes you
SAFe DevOps is one step. Here is the whole climb.
See what SDP unlocks, what comes before it, and the next move after it — with median pay and the next live cohort for each step.
developer → enterprise architect
developer to enterprise architect: Leading SAFe (SA), then SAFe DevOps (SDP), then SAFe Agile Software Engineering (ASE), then SAFe for Architects (ARCH). Median pay rises from $120K to $185K (+$65K) over a typical 18–30 months.
Build DevOps and engineering depth first, then architect across software, hardware and cloud. The ladder the client asked to keep for specialised roles: it starts where a developer already is.

No hard prerequisites. Once you register you gain access to online prep material (about 90 minutes) to review before class, so you arrive ready for SAFe® DevOps Practitioner (SDP).
The course, the official exam, one year of SAFe Studio, the digital workbook, our Fast-Pass study kit, recordings for life, and a 1:1 career-coaching session. No hidden fees.
Both. You can join live in-person or live-virtual (remote) — every cohort is instructor-led by an authorised SAFe instructor (SPC/ASPC), and you keep the session recordings.
Authorised SAFe instructors (SPC/ASPC) with real transformation experience — not generalist trainers.
45 multiple-choice, 90 minutes, passing score 73%. Your first attempt is included. Taken online with a 60-day access window. See the official SDP exam study guide.
No. Completing the course unlocks the exam, and you must pass it to earn the certification.

SAFe certifications are valid for one year, renewed through annual SAFe Studio membership.
Your first retake can be taken soon after a failed attempt; subsequent retakes require a short waiting period and a fee.
Pass the exam in SAFe Studio and your globally verifiable digital badge is issued by Scaled Agile — shareable to LinkedIn and renewable each year.
