    “The hands-on, interactive teaching style was perfect for me as a visual learner. So glad this was not two days of death by PowerPoint.”

    Gloria J.

    “The organization of the course was excellent. I really valued the pre-course readings and homework which allowed the live course to be dynamic and focused on solving cases rather than covering the finite details of the methodology.”

    Anna Maria Q.

    “The class felt very interactive despite not being co-located. The combination of the Miro board and Zoom breakout rooms helped a lot in creating an inclusive environment.”

    Frequently Asked Questions

    Will this program help my career?

    YES!  For the first time, you can now receive your A-CSPO training completely online in a guided mentoring program designed by Certified Scrum Trainers (CST) specifically for Product Owners looking to achieve a deeper understanding of how product management intersects with Scrum and Agile.

    This program offers A-CSPO students fast, condensed lessons combined with on-the-job application of key concepts for immediate effect.

    How much time to I need?

    All you need is an hour per week.  People want to know more about Scrum and Agile and how it relates to product management, but they simply do not have time to spend eight hours (or more!) in a classroom.

    Our A-CSPO program is comprised of sixteen online courses, which include short lectures, engaging exercises, and useful step-by-step frameworks to test out with your team and products.

    What's the Format of the Course?

    Most online training is boring and prone to distraction. Too many instructors talk for far too long about topics and theories not relevant for real-world application.

    With our A-CSPO program, all our lectures are crisp (no more than fifteen minutes) and combined with practical, on-the-job exercises so you can immediately practice what you have learned.

    Get ready for a powerful training approach that keeps the A-CSPO lessons short, creative, focused, and meaningful to the industry of Agile product management and software development.

    Will I meet people?

    Definitely! Learning works best when you are in a community, and the best learning experiences are shared.

    Each month, you can dial into one or more one-hour virtual classroom sessions with your CST instructor and other students to check progress, share ideas, answer questions, offer encouragement, and give some support. In our program, you will feel like you are doing your A-CSPO journey within a team, even though it is an online program.

    What qualifications do I need?

    We welcome everybody to start the program. However, you will need to meet certain criteria to receive your A-CSPO certification:

    1. A current Certified Scrum Product Owner® certification from the Scrum Alliance®.
    2. 12 or more months of experience as a Product Owner within the last 5 years.
    3. Attend at least four instructor-led virtual classroom sessions (you are welcome to attend more of course!).
