What is a Profit Stream?

Profit is essential because, without profit, a business is unsustainable. The problem is that while there is lots of guidance on pricing regular goods and services, there is little guidance on how to design profitable software-enabled solutions – until now. Read More

    • What Makes our Course Unique

      Training with Applied Frameworks.

      When we sat down to design this program for the Scrum Alliance, we were guided by three core principles:

      1. Our program would be the most rigorous and complete of its kind. There are no shortcuts to mastering this material.
      2. We believe you should be in control of pace and direction of your learning journey. You decide what you learn, when.
      3. Direct instructor interaction is essential to the process. That’s why we provide personalized feedback and advice as you advance through the course.

      If you have decided to become a Certified Scrum Professional, you are serious about your career. This program is designed for you.

    “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.”

    Jemma B.

    Frequently Asked Questions

    Will this program help my career?

    YES!  For the first time, you can now receive your CSP-PO 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 CSP-PO students fast, condensed lessons combined with on-the-job application of key concepts for immediate effect.

    How much time to I need?

    With our CSP-PO program, all you need are a few spare hours a week to complete one or more topics.  Our Certified Scrum Professional Product Owner program is comprised of 16 online courses, which include short lectures, engaging exercises, and useful step-by-step techniques to test out with your team.

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

    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 join 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 taking your CSP-PO 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 CSP-PO certification:

    1. A current Advanced Certified Scrum Product Owner® certification from the Scrum Alliance®.
    2. 2 years 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!).
    4. Complete all the on-line modules, quizzes and assignments.
    5. Bring a positive attitude and desire to make a real impact along with your team.
