Changes are possible. The course content is updated regularly.
After this course, you will have a firm grasp of the Scrum framework and be able to manage product development as a product owner. You will be familiar with Scrum artifacts and be able to take over backlog management.
The course also offers you a sound introduction to product management, guides you through the key phases of product development and shows you how to develop product strategies.
The course is aimed at people from the areas of sales, development and marketing. The course is also suitable for lateral entrants, e.g. from technical professions.
With Scrum, you will learn a project and product management process model that was originally used for agile software development in particular, but is now also used in many other specialist areas. As a scalable project management and development method, it is used successfully in numerous large-scale projects with several hundred team members. The official certificate from Scrum.org provides you with internationally recognized proof of your qualifications as a Scrum Product Owner.
As companies want to develop and market their products and services competitively, additional product management skills are in demand across all industries.
Didactic concept
Your lecturers are highly qualified both professionally and didactically and will teach you from the first to the last day (no self-study system).
You will learn in effective small groups. The courses usually consist of 6 to 25 participants. The general lessons are supplemented by numerous practical exercises in all course modules. The practice phase is an important part of the course, as it is during this time that you process what you have just learned and gain confidence and routine in its application. The final section of the course involves a project, a case study or a final exam.
