About the Certified Product Owner Course


Certified Scrum Product OwnerScrum is a simple, empirically based framework that has wide ranging implications. Key to the success of Scrum is the role of the Product Owner. The Product Owner is responsible for a project’s Return on Investment (ROI), guiding the Scrum team, and representing Customers as well as Business and Development staff. Strong Product Ownership is key to successful Scrum transformations.

Learn the essentials of working as a Scrum Alliance Certified Product Owner (CSPO) in this two-day class. CollabNet’s CSPO equips participants with the knowledge of Scrum principles and practices necessary to succeed in this new paradigm. Participants can expect to learn how to establish and maintain a backlog and write stories with clear acceptance criteria. We will also discuss real-world organizational challenges such as managing distributed teams, managing large or multiple projects, release planning, and metrics.

Course topics include:
  • Scrum Flow
  • Agile Product Owner Role
  • The Product Backlog (Creation and Management)
  • Writing Stories
  • Planning and Estimation
  • Releasing Planning and Metrics
  • Working with the Customer
  • Models for Scaling Agile across Multiple Teams

Testimonials
Redwood City, CA Public CSM Course (Nov 2007)
"Michael James was an excellent instructor, great subject matter expert and focused leader."

"The trainer (Dan Rawsthorne) was brilliant: very informative without boring us, helpful in terms of answering questions and above all very friendly and approachable."
-Anonymous
CSM Public course, Copenhagen Denmark
"I participated in the ScrumMaster Certification course in Copenhagen this week and, from the second Michael James opened his mouth and welcomed everyone, we were completely drawn into this amazing world of learning, participating, and debating. As a systems developer for a minor Danish Internet Service Provider, I've taken quite a few courses in the past five years, but I have to say that no other teacher, tutor, or mentor has even gotten close to Michael James' skills in communication! I'm sure that working with Agile development and using Scrum for years has had its effect on him. If not, there has to be some “Rainman” in him. His expertise in using timeboxes is absolutely breathtaking and, on more than one occasion, after a brief detour to another relevant issue, his little timer beeped only seconds later after asking if we had any questions. Even after having spent up to 10 minutes on a trainee's question without checking the timer, this was the case! As a trainee at his course, you cannot help finishing the two days with a feeling that you've achieved something very unique, but I'm not sure if it's the theories and Scrum exercises or Michael James' skilled way of tutoring/training.
