Learn how customers and business partners can use Scrum to help drive results. This course covers the fundamentals of the Scrum framework for agile project management, with more emphasis on the role of the Product Owner.
This course is aimed at those likely to be undertaking that role on a Scrum project, or those looking to improve their skill as a practising Product Owner.
This course is popular for clients who need closer collaboration between the customer and the delivery team, in order to focus on priority work and sustain high quality solutions.
Delegates will benefit from a balanced blend of theory and practical exercises which promote the importance of the Product Owner role in the Scrum team.
From our extensive experience of running training classes, we have developed and iterated on a training style to manage both your energy level and attention span! By using self-led exercises and group discussions we aim to ensure you get the most of your training experience.
The course will be a mix of theory delivered by slides and exercise-based learning. Although each course we deliver is slightly different and tailored to our delegates needs and circumstances, the core agenda of the Certified Scrum Product Owner (CSPO) class set out by the Scrum Alliance must include the following:
- What is Scrum?
- Product Backlogs
- Release Planning
- Product Visioning
- User Stories
- Personas
- Prioritisation Techniques
- Estimation Theory
- The Product Owner Role
- Reporting & Release Management
Product Managers, project managers, account managers, sales teams, programme managers, client representatives etc. As this course focusses on the Product Owner role, those with direct customer engagement and budget responsibilities will gain most from this course.
A basic grasp of agile principles may help, but is not essential for this course.
All of the learning materials you will need will be supplied for this course, including student handouts, pens and drawing equipment. You will not need a laptop or device for this course.
You may wish to bring your own hand sanitiser and/or water bottle if you prefer. Full details of the venue will be sent with your joining instructions shortly before the course date.
What is a CSPO?
This course is endorsed by the Scrum Alliance, Inc (www.scrumalliance.org) and on completion entitles the delegate to claim a Certified Scrum Product Owner (CSPO) license, valid for two years.

No. The CSPO accreditation is achieved by attending this two-day course and participating fully in the exercises and class discussions.
