Who Should Attend an A-CSPO Course
Active Certified Scrum Product Owners (CSPO) with at least 1 year of experience. You may still attend class with less than 1 year of experience, but you are unable to receive your A-CSPO until you have a full year of Product Owner experience.
Prerequisites
In order to receive the A-CSPO certification, you must:
- Have an active CSPO certification with the Scrum Alliance.
- Successfully complete any course pre-work or post-work.
- Complete an A-CSPO course via a Scrum Alliance approved trainer (i.e. this course).
- Validate at least 12 months of experience as a Product Owner within the past five years on your Scrum Alliance Profile. If you do not have the 12 months of experience, but want to learn and apply these concepts, you can take the class and document the experience as you get it (you will not have the A-CSPO until you have all the experience documented).
- Accept the A-CSPO License Agreement and complete your Scrum Alliance membership profile.
Note: There is no exam for the A-CSPO certification and you are eligible based on successful completion all educator-designed components of the course and the 12 months of experience. You may take the A-CSPO course at any time after completing your CSPO certification, but you must have at least 12 months of Product Owner experience logged into your Scrum Alliance profile before you are eligible to receive your A-CSPO certification.
A-CSPO Course Format
During the two-day interactive course, participants will enhance their product owner skills for the implementation of Scrum by learning strategies and tactics to improve the adoption, engagement, and value of Scrum within their company or organization. Participants will learn these topics through exercises, facilitated discussions, and case studies based on the instructor's real-world experience in working with Scrum teams.
Upon completion of the course and having fulfilled a year of CSPO experience, you will be eligible for the Advanced Certified Product Owner (A-CSPO) certification from the Scrum Alliance.
All Advanced Certified Product Owners (A-CSPO) courses are taught by Certified Scrum Trainers (CSTs) who go through a multi-year, rigorous vetting process to demonstrate their practical experience with Scrum and their ability to be effective instructors, so you can be sure that you are learning from the best!
