PDUs and SEUs

This focused 4-hour course qualifies for approximately 4 Professional Development Units (PDUs) for PMP® certification renewal through the Project Management Institute (PMI), and 4 Scrum Education Units (SEUs) towards renewing your Scrum Alliance certifications (typically Category B or C).

Microcredential Details

Upon successful completion and active participation in this entire 4-hour course, Brian will register your completion with Scrum Alliance. You will then receive instructions via email directly from Scrum Alliance on how to claim your official "AI for Product Owners" Microcredential digital badge to display on your profile and share online.

Please note: This microcredential validates specific skills and knowledge in AI application for Product Owners. It is distinct from foundational or advanced certifications like CSPO® or A-CSPO® and does not grant those certifications or automatically renew them (though the SEUs earned can contribute to renewal).

This microcredential course is specifically designed for Product Owners and Product Managers at any stage of their career (CSPO®, A-CSPO®, CSP-PO®, or practicing without certification) who want to understand and leverage Artificial Intelligence effectively within their role.

This course is not a technical course and will not contain information on programming agents or customizing your own LLMs. It will cover how product professionals can use AI tools responsibly and avoid common pitfalls.

It is also highly beneficial for Business Analysts, Scrum Masters, Agile Coaches, Marketing Professionals, Stakeholders, and anyone involved in defining product strategy or requirements who is interested in the practical application of AI tools and techniques to enhance product value.

No specific Scrum Alliance certification is required to attend this course. However, familiarity with Agile concepts and the accountabilities of the Product Owner role is recommended to gain the most value from the focused discussions and exercises on applying AI.
