Professional Product Discovery and Validation (Beta Course)
Live Virtual Class, December 4, 2024
Class Overview
This one-day skills course on product discovery and validation offers hands-on training to participants, enabling them to enhance value creation through practical application of discovery and validation skills in product development. This course covers core skills, equally essential for both greenfield scenarios but also the enhancement of existing products.
Experimentation and collecting evidence are more and more important in today’s ever-changing business environments. Thus, learning becomes a first-class citizen and this course teaches the essential skills needed to drive targeted learning. With these skills, you will delight customers while achieving company impacts and controlling risk exposure, thus optimizing Return on Investment (ROI).
Throughout the class, students learn a number of discovery and validation practices that they can use once they leave the classroom.
Course Learning Objectives
- Increase user value created by deliberately designing experiments to validate assumptions about user’s needs and wants
- Reduce waste and improve ROI by consciously only investing based on evidence gathered from validation
- Improve organizational collaboration and alignment by engaging with key stakeholders using data instead of opinions
- Unlock creativity by reframing work as problems to solve rather than tasks to execute
Who Should Attend this class?
This course is appropriate for students who are currently working as a Product Owner or Product Manager and are looking for practical ways to increase user value created, make data-informed decisions, and better investments. This course is also suitable for members of product teams.
Professional Scrum Certification
There is not a certification associated to the class at this time as it is not yet an official class of Scrum.org. If this experiment of the class proves to drive the creation of an official class a certification test will likely become a part of the offering and any beta participants will be eligible to receive an attempt at certification at no additional charge.
