A-CSPO® · Advanced Certified Scrum Product Owner® · 2 days · Helsinki

The product owner’s deep dive.

CSPO gave you the fundamentals — now it’s time to go further. A hands-on two-day intensive in the skills a product owner needs when the stakeholders get tougher, the teams multiply and the ground feels less certain. No ready-made slides — we work it through together.

The public calendar runs in Finnish — bring three colleagues or more and we can run this in English. Same trainer, same materials.

A product owner stuck in a swamp among signposts — a path leading toward a better future

01 · Recognise this?

The fundamentals were enough — until the terrain changed.

  • 01You've done CSPO and the fundamentals are solid — but the terrain has shifted. More stakeholders, several teams, and far less certainty about where to focus.
  • 02You've quietly become the bottleneck. Decisions wait for you, and everyone has a strong opinion about what should happen next.
  • 03You're shipping features, yet you're no longer sure you're delivering value — and you can't show it to the people who keep asking.

02 · For you if…

You already have the foundation — and the urge to go further.

  • You're a CSPO-certified product owner with at least a year of experience in the role.
  • You own a product across several teams, with overlapping dependencies pulling at each other.
  • Your stakeholders pull in different directions, and you need real structure for decisions and prioritisation.
  • You want to demonstrate value — not just features — and grow your credibility as a product professional.

03 · What you take home

Five skills for more demanding product ownership.

04 · What happens in the room

Materials made in the moment, not from slides.

Day 1

Competencies, stakeholders and vision

  • ·Core competencies: competency map, stakeholders, listening, decision-making
  • ·Developers and multi-team work — the product owner in a many-team world
  • ·Goal-setting and planning: product strategy, Product Vision Box, Vision Board
  • ·The GO Roadmap — turning the product vision into something concrete
  • ·Highlight of the day: your own product situation held up against the tools

Day 2

Validation and backlog management

  • ·Empathy for customers and users: sources of innovation, Prune the Product Tree, Impact Map
  • ·Advanced assumption validation: designing learning, hypotheses, Black Hat, biases
  • ·Assessing and sharpening the Sprint Review
  • ·Product Backlog management: modelling and measuring value, ordering the work
  • ·Definition of Done and refinement — a backlog that stays in shape

Experiential learning with the 4C model. The course’s five themes: core competencies · goal-setting and planning · empathy for customers and users · advanced validation of assumptions · Product Backlog management.

05 · After the course you…

Deliver value, not just features.

  • You're no longer the bottleneck: a room full of strong opinions moves forward, because you bring a structure for deciding.
  • You keep the Product Backlog aligned with the product vision and strategy.
  • You validate assumptions with hypotheses — you don't settle it by opinion or volume.
  • You lead product development across several teams without losing sight of the whole.
  • You measure and model value, and you can justify your prioritisation to stakeholders.
  • You're a product professional who delivers business outcomes — not just features.

06 · What alumni say

08 · Certification

Scrum Alliance A-CSPO®

The certificate is included in the course price. A-CSPO® requires a prior CSPO certification and at least one year of work experience as a product owner. A two-year Scrum Alliance membership extension is included in the price.

You can attend the course without these prerequisites too — you get the same learning, but the certificate isn’t granted until the Scrum Alliance requirements are met.

09 · FAQ

Most common questions

Does A-CSPO require a prior CSPO certification?
For the certification, yes — Scrum Alliance rules require a prior CSPO. You can still join the course without it if you want the same learning without the A-CSPO mark.
Is other work experience needed?
The certification requires at least a year of experience as a product owner. The course assumes you've already been in situations where the basics alone fell short.
Is the course remote or in person?
Public courses in Helsinki are run in person. Materials are created in the moment, not from slides — experiential learning needs the same room.
What's included in the price?
Training materials, breakfast, lunch and afternoon refreshments, and the Scrum Alliance A-CSPO® certification. A two-year Scrum Alliance membership extension is included.
Is there a group discount?
Yes — there's a discount for a group of three or more. Get in touch and we'll work out the details.
