The ‘Agile Product Ownership’ modules teach candidates the role, responsibilities, and general traits of a product owner that affect their day-to-day activities. In doing so, you will find out how the differences between product owners and product managers condition the kinds of tasks they carry out within companies. You’ll also learn the twelve main principles that dictate an agile business environment as well as how product owners embody agile principles and values in the roles and responsibilities that they carry out within their respective organizations.

‘Business Model & Validation Framework’ is a compound section that serves to help candidates gain key insight into the inner workings of four of the most common business models associated with product management. In doing so, you will compare and contrast the peculiarities of the most common business models and how they each impact product development as well as how to synthesize your product and business ideas into powerful and concise elevator pitches.

‘Scrum & Kanban’ are two fundamental topics that are fully examined in this course. The Product Manager HQ Product Owner Certification Program breaks down the differences between Kanban and Scrum frameworks that every serious product owner needs to be aware of and also teaches you the best situations in which product owners should leverage a Kanban-centered managerial approach as opposed to Scrum.
