Frequently Asked Questions About Our Agile Product Management Training
Do I need prior product management experience for this certification?
No prior product management experience is required. Our training is designed to benefit both experienced product managers looking to formalize their skills and professionals from other backgrounds (like project management, business analysis, or UX) who want to transition into product management roles.
How is this agile product management certification recognized in the industry?
Our certification is widely recognized by employers across industries. It’s accredited by the Scrum Alliance, providing you with a valuable credential that validates your product management expertise. After 4 days of training, you will earn the Advanced Certified Scrum Product Owner (A-CSPO) certification.
What’s the difference between product management and project management?
While both roles are important, they focus on different aspects of building products vs. managing projects. Product management is about determining what to build based on customer needs, market opportunities, and business strategy. Project management focuses on efficient project execution, managing scope, timelines, resources, cost, and quality. Our training helps clarify these distinctions and equips you with core product management skills.
How does this certification compare to other product management courses?
Unlike many theoretical or on-demand courses, our certification provides hands-on, practical experience guided by instructors who are active product leaders. Our small-group format ensures personalized attention, and our curriculum focuses on real-world application rather than just concepts. We also include post-training coaching to support your implementation of what you’ve learned.
