Answer : NO. You have to attend the training. More than the necessity, please understand why the training is compulsory. You need to understand the depths of Scrum and Agile. You may have done Agile in your company, however, learning on the job always involves modifying as per your wish and will and essentially you end up doing the same old things - just renamed as Scrum. It is better that you understand Scrum in a classroom setting so that you get depth on the subject.

We as EPMC dont just give training. We give post training support to all our students. After the training you need help in terms understanding the subject better, clarify doubts, get depth in the subject. Mr. Amit Kulkarni is a well known trainer on Agile and he will personally help with responding to your queries post the training.
EPMC gives you a online course with the CSM training. This Online course has in-depth topics on Generally Accepted Agile Practices e.g. estimation, prioritization, user story related etc. This course will help you build depth on the subject.
We help with connecting with other students of EPMC etc. EPMC has been operating for last 5 years and EPMC has trained not just on CSM but also on other Agile and Project Management related subjects such as PMI-ACP, DevOps, PRINCE2, PMP etc. EPMC regularly holds meetup on "World of Agile" meetup group.
