How to take an assessment and enable translation during the test

  1. Go to the Start Page for your assessment on Scrum.org.  A link is contained in your password e-mail or you can navigate to the assessment from here.
  2. Enter your assessment passcode and click "Start".
  3. You will see the start page of the assessment with a summary and instructions.  Proceed through the next couple of screens until you see your first question displayed.
  4. Very important:  Now that you see your first question you can enable the Google Translate plug-in and it will remain enabled throughout the rest of the assessment.  *If you enable the plug-in on any of the screens before the first question you will need to enable it again after seeing the first question.
  5. On the right of the address bar, select Translate .
     

  6. Select your preferred language.
