Product Owner is an accountability within the Scrum Framework. However, Scrum doesn’t prescribe how the Product Owner performs their job. It only provides the purpose of the Product Owner. This leaves a huge gap between what typically is expected from Product Owner and what they do in the real world, often leading to anti-patterns and misconceptions about the Product Owner.

To be a truly awesome Product Owner, you need two things: 1) understanding how to create value through product management, and 2) mastering the art of using Agile and Scrum to make your product super valuable to users.

Our Professional Scrum Product Owner course is a two-day deep dive to help you conquer those two things. We’ll teach you the core principles of Scrum and the nitty-gritty of what a Product Owner does in a Scrum Team. You’ll walk out of here with a rock-solid understanding of the Scrum framework and the Product Owner’s role, plus a toolbox full of skills and techniques to tackle any challenges that come your way. We’ll also show you how to work with everyone on your team – customers, stakeholders, colleagues, the whole gang – to make sure your product delivers the most value possible.
