Advanced Certified Scrum Product Owner® (A-CSPO) Training

We welcome everybody to start the program. However, you will need to meet certain criteria to receive your A-CSPO certification:

• A current Certified Scrum Product Owner® certification from the Scrum Alliance®.
• 12 or more months of experience as a product owner within the last 5 years. 

The A-CSPO Training course is an intermediate-level course.

• Product Owners, Product Managers and other entrepreneurs
• Certified ScrumMasters, Agile Coaches and other change agents
• Certified Scrum Professionals looking to renew their certification
• Architects, Business Analysts and Technical Managers

The A-CSPO Training course includes on-demand training, online lectures, step-by-step exercises, a one-year subscription to course materials and coaching circles, live access to certified Scrum trainers, and coaching circles with CST instructors and other students for progress checks, idea sharing, and support.

Progress at your own pace – you only need an hour a week. We understand people want to know more about Scrum and Agile but do not have time to spend eight hours (or more!) in a classroom. With this program, you only need a few spare hours a week to complete one or more topics. This A-CSPO program comprises seventeen online courses, including short lectures, engaging exercises and useful step-by-step techniques to test out with your team.

Each month, you can dial into one or more Coaching Circles with your CST and other students to check progress, share ideas, answer questions, and offer encouragement. With our program, you will feel like you are making your A-CSPO journey within a team, even though it is an online program.

• Attend at least four instructor-led coaching circles (you are welcome to attend more, of course!).
• Complete all the online modules, quizzes, and assignments.
• Bring a positive attitude and desire to make a real impact along with your team.
