Professional Scrum Product Owner

Being a professional Product Owner encompasses more than writing requirements or managing a Product Backlog. Product Owners need to have a concrete understanding of all product management aspects, including but not limited to product ownership, that drives value from their products. 

Professional Scrum Product Owner (PSPO) is a 2-day course that focuses on all of these areas to teach students how to maximize the value of products and systems. PSPO is a cutting-edge course for Product Owners, Agile product managers and anyone responsible for a product’s success in the market. In this course, students will develop and solidify their knowledge of being a Product Owner through instruction and team-based exercises. The breadth of the role’s responsibilities in delivering a successful product will become more clear from an Agile perspective. Metrics are identified to track the creation of value and the successful delivery of the product to the marketplace. 

Examen voucher + free attempt:

The course also includes a free attempt at the globally recognized Professional Scrum Product Owner I certification exam (PSPO I).

In-person class given by scrum.org certified trainers:

This is an in-person class given by scrum.org accredited trainers with ongoing field experience. Because of this, the trainers are able to share their experiences from the trenches and connect it back to the theory to meet your learning objectives. 

No boring PowerPoint slides. 100% interactive and redesigned into mini-workshops.

Our classes are somewhat unconventional. We don't do PowerPoint, and we don't think the traditional "we talk, you listen" is fun, nor is it effective. Also, we don't like spaces designed for big meetings or school settings.
Here is a sneak preview of what our classes tend to look like. 

What You Will Learn

Over the two days, students will develop and solidify their knowledge of being a Product Owner through instruction and team-based exercises. The breadth of the role’s responsibilities in delivering a successful product will become more clear from an Agile perspective. Metrics are identified to track the creation of value and the successful delivery of the product to the marketplace.

The PSPO course is much more than just a set of slides and an instructor. In this course, students work on real-life cases with other classmates together as a team. This course is made up of discussions and hands-on exercises.
