Where SSM takes you

### SAFe Scrum Master is one step. *Here is the whole climb.*

See what SSM unlocks, what comes before it, and the next move after it — with median pay and the next live cohort for each step.

##### Scrum Master → release train leadership

Scrum Master to release train leadership: SAFe Scrum Master (SSM), then SAFe Advanced Scrum Master (SASM), then SAFe Release Train Engineer (RTE). Median pay rises from $110K to $172K (+$62K) over a typical 18–24 months.

Start on one team, grow into team-of-teams, then run an Agile Release Train. The most-hired ladder in SAFe job postings — and the one most employers advertise under a title other than RTE.
