    Skills You Will Build as a Product Owner

    Capabilities You Apply at Work

    The CSPO programme helps you build practical product ownership capability across vision, backlog, stakeholders and value. By the end of the course you can define a product goal, order a backlog and maximise the value your team delivers.

    Scrum Framework Foundations

    In CSPO training you will learn the Scrum framework from the product owner's view, including empiricism, the three pillars of transparency, inspection and adaptation, and how the Scrum values guide product decisions.

    Product Vision and Product Goal

    Craft a compelling product vision and define the product goal as the commitment of the product backlog, connecting long-term direction to the work the team plans each sprint.

    Product Backlog Management

    Create, refine and order a healthy product backlog, write effective user stories using INVEST criteria, and set clear acceptance criteria so the team always knows what is next.

    Stakeholder Collaboration

    Identify customers and stakeholders, gather needs, and use the Sprint Review to capture feedback and turn it into backlog decisions that keep the product on track.

    Value Maximisation

    Define and measure different kinds of value, and apply prioritisation techniques such as MoSCoW, the Kano model and cost of delay to maximise the value the team delivers.

    Release Planning and Forecasting

    Plan releases with MVP and minimal marketable feature thinking, forecast using velocity, and flex scope transparently while communicating delivery to stakeholders.
