Scrum Product Owner Course

March & June 2019

At a Glance: The Certified Scrum Product Owner Course is a two-day course which introduces the concepts of agile product management using the Scrum methodology. Why does this matter? The 2008 Standish Chaos study showed that 32% Succeeded of all IT projects had a cost overrun. Further, 24% Failed and 44% were challenged. It’s no wonder our customers are unhappy!

This course will be taught in English.

This course will provide you the tools, techniques and most importantly, the understanding needed to be an effective Scrum Product Owner.

Students will learn tried & true methods for building, managing and prioritizing the Product Backlog and ways to build a product roadmap for release planning. Successful participants will be listed as Certified Scrum Product Owners on the Scrum Alliance website.

Questions, like the following, will not be addressed in this class:

What are the roles, meetings and artifacts in Scrum?
What is the role of the Scrum Master?
What is a self-organizing team?
How can I complete testing at the end of each sprint?
Why is a cross functional team important?
Who is in charge of the team if not the ScrumMaster?
Is the ScrumMaster a Project Manager?

For answers to these types of questions, and more, we highly recommend attending our 2 days Certified ScrumMaster course – see our course calendar.

Simple. Years of experience, a broad network of associates, a rich background in a variety of industries and technologies, a pragmatic "no-bull" approach and most importantly, we’re fun and will keep you engaged. Interested?
