Value-focused Team Delivery
The Product Owner (PO) is ultimately responsible for the product, its development, life cycle, and value creation. As part of the Scrum team, trust and mandate are crucial for the product owner to succeed.
Scrum is the most well-known agile framework, used in product development all over the world.
About this course
This training strengthens you in your role by, for example, clarifying your powers, the responsibilities you have, how you define value, and how you communicate. We will go through your toolbox hands-on to help you maximize the value of your backlog.
There are two variants of the training:
- Two full days on-site in classrooms with up to 25 students. Body language and facilitation are essential components of active learning.
- Four half days at a distance with up to 20 students. We use Zoom for video meetings with group rooms and Microsoft SharePoint as a digital workspace. To ensure that the technology works, the participants are invited to a short meeting before the actual training starts.
Through the concept “Training from the back of the room,” the participants will be involved in a learning process that creates insight and lasting knowledge. All course modules have been designed to include theory, practical exercise, dialogue, and reflection in accordance with our training concept.
You will learn the basics to pass the Professional Scrum Product Owner 1 (PSPO1) certification. To be better prepared for the certification, the course material is in English. It is essential to know the English Scrum vocabulary. We speak English or Swedish depending on what we agree on in class.
