Certified Scrum Product Owner (CSPO)
Scrum Product Owner certification
The Certified Scrum Product Owner (CSPO) has fast become the most recognised professional certification focusing on Agile product management. It dovetails seamlessly with its famous sibling, the Certified Scrum Master (CSM). With a focus on product and feature validation, the CSPO teaches new Product Owners highly pragmatic, real-world patterns, techniques, tools and tips to help them ideate and formulate products and services that will delight their customers and stakeholders.
The CSPO is governed by the peak industry body, the Scrum Alliance. Home to the largest network of professional Scrum practitioners in the world – the Scrum Alliance applies the most stringent trainer certification process in the industry to ensure that you receive truly world-class Scrum training.
The previous in-person attendance requirement stipulated by the Scrum Alliance has been temporarily lifted to accommodate the current situation and we are excited to be able to offer our Certified Scrum Product Owner training session, virtually.
Virtual-Online course* includes:
- Downloadable training materials
- Real-time instruction
- Relatable examples, and;
- The option to attend the same training course in-person at a later date at no additional cost
The course will contain the same unique AxisAgile content and will also focus on how Scrum teams can collaborate remotely. The class size will remain limited to ensure all attendees are still able to effectively collaborate with each other and with both trainers. Completed in real time, attendees will work together in small teams and learn not only from the trainers but also through discussion in breakout sessions, exercises, targeted games and simulations.
*A laptop or desktop with Internet connection is required
