All PMI certifications, including PMI ACP can be taught by any Training provider and also PMI REP’s(Registered Education Providers).

CSM (Certified Scrum Master) is offered by the ScrumAlliance which was the only provider once upon a time to venture out to provide SCRUM related certifications. Offlate, there are atleast a couple of bodies which focus and provide similar to certifications like CSM. CSM primarily emphasizes on the SCRUM methodology only.
