Certified Scrum Product Owner Course

Certified Scrum Product Owner Training

Help! I’m a Product Owner!
Have you asked yourself any of the following?
“How is my role as a product owner different from traditional product manager or project sponsor?”
“How can I accurately tell management when they’ll get their requests?”
“What are the daily tasks and responsibilities of the Product Owner?”
“How do I know if our product is meeting our customers’ needs?”
“What makes a good user story?”
“How can we build better software at a faster pace?” You are not alone. In fact, this course was designed specially for YOU!

While this course covers the details needed to fulfill or support the Product Owner role, understanding the role and its responsibilities isn’t enough.
