Course Description:
Scrum Alliance has adopted the Scrum Guide, The Definitive Guide to Scrum: The Rules of the Game, co-authored and updated (most recently in 2017) by the co-creators of the Scrum framework, as the guiding curriculum for this offering. CSPO candidates are expected to build a body of knowledge of the Scrum framework, including its roles, events, and artifacts.
Incorporating Scrum principles and practices takes diligence, patience, and a commitment to continuous improvement. Scrum is a framework, not a prescriptive methodology.

Students should also expect the Scrum Foundations Learning Objectives to be covered before or during the offering.
Course Objectives:
➜ Product Owner Core Competencies.
➜ Describing Purpose and Strategy.
➜ Understanding Customers and Users.
➜ Validating Product Assumptions.
➜ Working with the Product Backlog.
