Every team can build something. Far fewer build the right thing. Most people working in product, software, or delivery have heard of Scrum. Fewer know how to use it to own a product: define a vision, shape a strategy, manage a backlog, and relentlessly maximise the value delivered to customers.

The Certified Scrum Product Owner® (CSPO®) course bridges that gap in two live online days. Delivered via Zoom and Mural with hands-on breakout activities and AI-powered tools integrated throughout, this is not your standard Product Ownership course - you get hands-on experience evolving an actual product, working from real ideas brought to you by real people. You leave with an industry-recognised credential and the confidence to create valuable products from day one.

CST-level instruction is available from other providers, typically upwards of £500. We deliver the same calibre of training at our special Scrum Alliance direct price, with no exam to sit, a free 30-minute one-on-one session with your trainer after the course, and a two-year Scrum Alliance professional membership included - all backed by a full refund guarantee.

Not Scrum Resold - a Complete Product Approach.

You learn to develop and execute an effective Product Strategy - supporting your product vision, goals, and customer value - and gain a proven, totally free, open-source Product Operating Model to enhance your real product development. This is not Scrum resold: it is its own model, freely reusable with almost any Agile approach, including, of course, Scrum.

We integrate AI for Product Ownership directly into the course - practising how AI drives innovation, optimises decision-making, and improves customer experiences. AI will not replace Product Owners; it empowers them to own the product even more. We also guarantee to answer every Agile, Scrum, or Product question you bring to the class. If we cannot, we will refund your money.

What Will You Receive?

CSPO® Certification

Your globally recognised Certified Scrum Product Owner® (CSPO®) from Scrum Alliance - no exam required. A two-year Scrum Alliance professional membership is included on successful completion.

AI for Product Ownership

Practical experience with AI tools woven into both days - techniques for driving innovation, optimising decisions, and improving customer experiences that other CSPO graduates simply will not have.

Real Product Development

Hands-on experience evolving an actual product across both days - vision, value proposition, strategy, backlog, and outcome roadmap. Not just theory; the real experience of product ownership before you leave the room.

A Free Product Operating Model

A proven, open-source Product Operating Model you can take away and reuse with almost any Agile approach - giving structure to your real product development long after the course ends.

Free 30-Minute 1:1 After the Course

A personal follow-up session with your trainer, scheduled when you need it most - once you are back at work and facing real Product Owner challenges for the first time.

Community & Ongoing Savings

Lifetime access to the Agile Affinity Discord and Scrum Event Meetup community - plus 20% off all future Scrum Alliance courses when you subscribe to our newsletter.

One-on-one follow-up session via Zoom

Included: A Free 30-Minute 1:1 with Your Trainer

Stepping into Product Ownership - or applying it with a real product for the first time - can feel daunting. Every booking includes a free 30-minute one-on-one session with your trainer - scheduled after the course, when you actually need it.

  • ✓ Talk through the specific challenges you are facing as a Product Owner and get practical guidance tailored to your organisation.
  • ✓ Walk away with a concrete plan for your product vision, backlog prioritisation, or your next stakeholder conversation.

How the CSPO® Programme Works

01

2-Day Live Online - Interactive from Start to Finish

This is a fully interactive course, not a webinar. Delivered via Zoom and Mural, it combines instructor-led sessions with breakout room activities, group exercises, and AI-powered tools integrated throughout. Together, we work on a real product - developing a product strategy, leveraging a proven Product Operating Model, and using practical AI for innovation. Web Cameras stay on - this is a working session. You will stay focused and energised with regular breaks and an hour for lunch.

02

Certification - No Exam, Just Full Participation

There is no exam for the CSPO®. Attend and participate fully across both days - webcam on so we can see it is you - and you will earn your certification. Delegates with full complete attendance who participate have a 100% certification rate. A two-year Scrum Alliance professional membership is included with your successful completion.

03

Your Free Follow-Up - Support When It Matters Most

Once you are back at work, book your free 30-minute one-on-one session with your trainer. Bring a real scenario - a backlog that needs prioritising, stakeholders pulling in different directions, a product vision that will not land - and leave with a concrete approach. Your success in the role is what matters, not just the certificate.

Unlock the Power of Product with Scrum: What You’ll Learn

You will learn why a seemingly simple framework like Scrum can profoundly affect the products in your organisation - and how to go far beyond the bare mechanics.

  • ✓ Leverage the Scrum framework to develop innovative, high-quality products.
  • ✓ Define vision, manage backlogs, maximise product value, and bring the developers along on the journey.
  • ✓ Enhance strategic roadmap planning and execution to align products with customer needs.
  • ✓ Integrate experiments into the product backlog for improved user-centred design.
  • ✓ Visually experience how discovery work connects to value propositions for your product backlog.
  • ✓ Align product strategy with business outcomes to enable organisational success.
  • ✓ Gain tools to prioritise outcomes effectively and ensure high-impact product deliveries.
  • ✓ Align market strategies with product development to improve market fit and launch success.
  • ✓ Understand the Scrum Team - Product Owner, Scrum Master, Developers: who does what, and why.
  • ✓ Master the Scrum artifacts and events from a Product Owner’s perspective.

Rickard Jones - Certified Scrum Trainer (CST) at Agile Affinity

Rickard Jones

CST · Certified Team Coach · LeSS Trainer · ICAgile Trainer · Co-author of the AgileHR Manifesto

Rickard brings 20+ years of agile experience to the (virtual) room, combining training with active coaching of product teams and organisations. He is a Certified Scrum Trainer, Certified Team Coach, LeSS Trainer, ICAgile Trainer, and co-author of the AgileHR Manifesto. He coaches Product Owners and product teams in the field every week - so what you learn in the room is grounded in the same challenges you are about to face.

Occasional sessions are delivered by John Barratt (CST, Enterprise Agile Coach - client results include IAG Loyalty, Maersk, and Vodafone). All Agile Affinity trainers are practising coaches with real-world credentials.

Why Train with Agile Affinity?

Interactive, Not a Lecture

Small groups, cameras on, breakout rooms, and hands-on development of a real product. You get direct access to a CST-level trainer - not a passive seat in a large webinar.

A Trainer Who Coaches Daily

Rickard coaches real product teams and organisations every week. Every answer you get in the room comes from field experience, not just the Scrum Guide.

A Community, Not Just a Course

We run Scrum Event (Europe’s largest SA meetup), Agile Coach Camp UK, and the Kanban Coaching Exchange. Your network keeps growing long after you certify.

750+ Certified. Since 2019.

Established, trusted, and rated 4.9 on Google. Six years of developing great Product Owners is long enough to know what actually makes a difference in your first 90 days on the job.

Why Agile Affinity?

Agile Affinity has served the agile community since 2019, certifying over 750 practitioners a year across Scrum Alliance and ICAgile programmes. We run Scrum Event - the largest Scrum Alliance meetup in Europe - alongside the Kanban Coaching Exchange, the Agile Coaching Exchange, and Agile Coach Camp UK. When you train with us, you are joining a community of practitioners, not just collecting a credential.

Our trainers are practitioners first. Rickard coaches more than he trains. When you bring a question to the course, you are not getting a textbook answer - you are getting what worked in the field last Tuesday, from someone who will still be coaching next Tuesday when you need a follow-up.

Frequently Asked Questions

Do I need any prior Agile or Scrum experience?

None at all. The course is designed for everyone - whether you are completely new to Agile and Scrum or formalising experience you already have. We start from the fundamentals and build from there. All you need is a willingness to engage and take part in the hands-on activities.

Is there an exam? How do I get certified?

There is no exam for the CSPO®. To receive your certification you must attend and participate fully across both days - keep your webcam on so we can see it is you. Delegates with full attendance have a 100% certification rate, and a two-year Scrum Alliance professional membership is included with successful completion.

How does this differ from other CSPO courses?

Three things stand out. First, you get hands-on experience developing an actual product - including a free, open-source Product Operating Model and practical AI for Product Ownership woven into both days. Second, every booking includes a free 30-minute one-on-one with your trainer after the course - no other CSPO provider includes this as standard. Third, your trainer coaches real product teams every week, so everything you learn is grounded in current field experience.

How should I prepare?

No pre-reading or prior certification is needed. Come with an open mind, a willingness to collaborate with fellow learners, and - if you have one - a real product idea or challenge from your current work. We will help you apply what you learn directly to your context.

Is the course fully online? What software do I need?

Yes, fully online. You will need the latest Zoom desktop application (not the web or mobile version) and a browser for Mural. You will also need a stable internet connection, a working microphone, and a webcam. Cameras must stay on during the course.

How many people will be in the group?

We keep class sizes deliberately small so every participant gets meaningful interaction with their trainer. This is a hands-on course with breakout activities and open discussion - not a passive webinar. It is one of the key differences between us and larger global providers.

Is the course recorded?

No. The interactive nature of the course - breakout rooms, live exercises, open discussion - does not translate to video. The Scrum Alliance also requires full attendance across both days for certification. If your schedule changes, you can transfer to a future class at no extra cost.

Is there a discount code available?

Yes - use promo code SA25 at checkout on AgileAffinity.com to save £25 off the listed price. This is a special discount available to learners arriving via the Scrum Alliance website. We also offer 50% off for Blue Light cardholders - email us proof of your membership to receive your discount.

What if I need to cancel or reschedule?

We stand by the quality of our training. If you are not fully satisfied, contact us before receiving your certification for a full refund. If your schedule changes, you can transfer to a future class at no extra cost - just let us know at least 5 working days before the start date. Contact us at [email protected].

Can my employer pay, or can I get a corporate invoice?

Yes. Select “Pay by Bank Transfer” at checkout on AgileAffinity.com and an invoice is generated automatically. Payment must be received before joining instructions are sent. For larger corporate bookings, contact us at [email protected].

What if I have another question?

We are happy to help. Email us at [email protected] and we will get back to you quickly.
