"The CSPO training offers a dynamic learning experience. It is complete with examples from diverse, real-life companies and it has interactive sessions that keep participants engaged. The small class size brought meaningful discussions and open debates with more personalized attention from the instructor, Tiago. He shared different templates and tools that help improve our ways of working. It is highly recommended for those with a basic understanding of agile, and who want to improve their skills as product owners in agile teams."

FAQ

Will I receive a certification?

Upon successful course completion, you'll earn the globally recognized Certified Scrum Product Owner (CSPO) certification from the Scrum Alliance, along with a two-year paid membership - giving you access to one of the largest community of agilists in the world.

Who is this for?

This training is made for current or aspiring product managers who want to understand what Agile product management is all about, and the core tools you will need to excel at your role. Additionally, this training can also benefit people working with Agile teams in either a delivery management or leadership role - understanding how an Agile product owner leads a team to value delivery can help them in their own roles.

What will I learn?

The Certified Scrum Product Owner training ensures participants understand why Agile is valuable for product management, and provides them with the practices and tools to move to a customer-centric, outcome-focused approach. We focus on the four different perspectives of a Product Owner -vision, roadmap, tactics, delivery- providing tools & practices to work on each of those perspectives. By the end of the training, you will know how to collaborate effectively with your stakeholders, prioritize and refine your product backlog, start building products or services that people love, and collaborate effectively with delivery teams. You can check out the detailed learning objectives for the CSPO here.

What is the training format?


Our Certified Scrum Product Owner training is a highly engaging session, combining interactive lectures, hands-on exercises, and group discussions. The purpose is to ensure participants have the opportunity to maximize their learning experience by using case studies and exercises to put into the practice the concepts they are learning. Also, the strong focus on group exercises in the training ensures participants have a chance to hear about other people's experiences and ideas.


It is available in two formats:

1. Live classroom (2 full days)

2. Live online (3 days, 5,5 hours)


Regardless of the format, participants are consistently surprised by the hands-on nature of the training and how it helps their learning experience.

I already have some knowledge, is this training too basic for me?

Probably not. We frequently have very experienced product owners, who have been working for multiple years with Agile teams, and they are happy to find they are picking up new tools or clearing up some mis-understanding they might have built over time about a specific topic. Also, the opportunity to discuss their specific case with others during group exercises usually results in tips or insights they can take back to their teams. So basically, even as an experienced product owner you will still most likely find the experience and take-aways very valuable. If you are interested in certifications, you need to acquire the foundational level certification (e.g. CSPO) before being eligible for more advanced certifications (e.g. Advanced CSPO) within the Scrum Alliance.

"The Product Owner training was quite insightful and has been valuable in transforming the ways of working within our team. One crucial takeaway from the course was on building the MVP in incremental stages, while keeping the customer needs as the sole compass to guide its development.

Testimomnial person

Eric McIntire

Director of Yield US Operations, Kraft Heinz

"I attended Agilar’s Online Product Owner Certification Training session, and I found the instructor and course material extremely helpful in my journey to learn more about the Agile/Scrum process. The course materials were well balanced between presentation of materials and interaction with others in the session. We were able to move at a very good pace through the material with plenty of time to ask questions for clarity. As someone new to the Agile/Scrum process, I found the course material and the capability of the instructor to be very helpful for me to expand my understanding of this topic. I highly recommend this course to others who are in the early stages of their Agile/Scrum journey."
