Passionate Product Ownership

Passionate Product Ownership

Though each CSPO course varies depending on the instructor, all Certified Scrum Product Owner® courses focus on Scrum from a product owner's perspective. Graduates will receive the CSPO designation. All CSPO courses are taught by Trainers approved by the Scrum Alliance.

Product ownership is one of the most difficult and critical roles in Scrum.

While the role responsibilities of the product owner can be described simply enough, very little is said about the day-to-day practice for those filling the role.  If you’re a new product owner, you’re likely wrestling with competing demands for time and information from your team, and stakeholders. This course fills in the missing process for those in product ownership.  The simple Scrum model doesn’t mandate or describe the routine meetings, workshops, and methods of communication the typical product owner must use to initially understand and plan the development of the product.
