Question 1

Self-Paced Mentorship Delivery Method

Accepted Answer

Don’t spend two days analysing a hypothetical case study. Apply our frameworks directly to your real product roadmap while working toward your mastery certification. Instead of clearing your calendar for intensive classroom sessions or following generic, self-paced content, you’ll join fortnightly live sessions with a Certified Scrum Trainer—tackling real organisational challenges in real time, with a more practical and flexible approach. The flexible format lets you apply advanced frameworks directly within your current role—turning your workplace into your learning environment. No need to take time off work.

Question 2

Fortnightly Live Mentorship with a CST

Accepted Answer

Join live sessions every two weeks with a Certified Scrum Trainer with over 20 years of experience coaching organisations at a strategic level. Bring your real product and organisational challenges and receive expert, real-time guidance—not pre-recorded advice.

Question 3

Your A-CSM® Credential & Certification Renewal

Accepted Answer

Earn the Advanced Certified Scrum Product Owner® (A-CSPO®) credential from Scrum Alliance while also renewing your eligible Scrum Alliance certifications for two years. It can also provide a convenient way to maintain your credentials if previous certifications have expired.

Question 4

Free 1:1 Coaching Session

Accepted Answer

At the end of the programme, you’ll have a dedicated one-to-one close-out session with your trainer via Zoom to review your progress, reflect on your development, and confirm your certification. During the session, you will:

Review your learning log and reflect on the practical outcomes achieved with your product and teams.

Evaluate your development and consolidate the Product Ownership skills gained throughout the programme.

Clarify your next steps as a more capable and confident senior Product Owner.

Confirm your A-CSPO® certification and move forward with confidence in applying your learning.

Question 5

Your Learning Log — Your Format, Your Way

Accepted Answer

Throughout the programme, you’ll maintain a concise learning log in whatever format works best for you—written notes, presentations, videos, sketches, or other creative formats that help you capture and communicate your learning. A peer-reviewed reflection session will provide an opportunity to demonstrate how the programme has strengthened your skills and leadership capabilities.

Question 6

A Supportive Peer Community

Accepted Answer

Stay connected with fellow participants between mentoring sessions through a dedicated group chat. Collaborate, exchange experiences, and arrange peer learning sessions to reinforce your development and accelerate your progress.

Question 7

What is the A-CSPO® certification?

Accepted Answer

The Advanced Certified Scrum Product Owner® (A-CSPO®) is an advanced Scrum Alliance credential for experienced Product Owners who want to develop deeper expertise in product strategy, customer understanding, stakeholder collaboration, backlog management, and value optimisation

Question 8

Can I use my existing product work as part of the programme?

Accepted Answer

Yes. The programme is specifically designed around real-world application. You can practise new techniques with your actual product, teams, customers, stakeholders, and backlog, then reflect on the results through your learning log.

Question 9

What can I do after A-CSPO®?

Accepted Answer

The A-CSPO® is an important step toward the Certified Scrum Professional®–Product Owner (CSP®-PO). Scrum Alliance currently requires an A-CSPO® as the prerequisite for CSP-PO, along with the applicable course and 24-month Product Owner experience requirement

Question 10

Who should enroll this program?

Accepted Answer

Product Owners: Experienced Product Owners who want to strengthen their strategic thinking, product decision-making, and ability to maximise value.

Senior Product Owners: Product professionals managing complex products, multiple stakeholders, competing priorities, or larger product portfolios.

Agile Coaches: Agile Coaches who want to deepen their understanding of Product Ownership and better support Product Owners and product teams.

Scrum Masters: Scrum Masters looking to develop stronger product knowledge and improve collaboration between Product Owners, Scrum Teams, and stakeholders.

Product Managers & Product Leaders: Professionals working in product management who want to strengthen their Agile Product Ownership capabilities and apply Scrum principles more effectively.

Programme & Delivery Managers: Experienced delivery professionals who want to develop stronger product-focused skills and transition towards Product Ownership or product leadership.

Question 11

How the mentorship format look like?

Accepted Answer

This is a rolling mentorship programme rather than a traditional online course. You can join anytime and complete it in as little as six weeks or extend it up to six months—entirely at your own pace. Live sessions run fortnightly on Thursdays (6–7pm CET time) via Zoom. Between sessions, you’ll stay connected with peers through online chat, with opportunities for additional peer-led discussions. Your trainers are active practitioners who spend more time coaching in real organisations than teaching—so they’re learning alongside you as you progress.

Question 12

When can I start, and how long do I have to complete the programme?

Accepted Answer

You can begin as soon as you register—there’s no need to wait for a fixed start date. Any listed “start” dates are simply markers. You’ll have up to one year to complete the programme, with most participants finishing within six weeks to six months, depending on their pace and availability.

Question 13

How many people will I be working with?

Accepted Answer

As a rolling programme, group size can vary—but it’s intentionally kept small to ensure interactive discussions rather than webinar-style sessions. You’ll get to know fellow practitioners by name and work with a consistent group throughout your fortnightly sessions.

Question 14

Are you open for group / company training?

Accepted Answer

Yes we are flexible if you want to have a customized group training at minimum of 6 but ideally 8 participants to make the learning experience interactive with group activities. We can also customize the training sessions. For example, instead of 2 days x 8 hours, we can split into 4 days x 4 hours spread into 2 weeks (total of 16 hours training)

Question 15

Is there an exam?

Accepted Answer

There is no traditional exam. During your first mentoring session, you’ll review the required self-learning log with your trainer and define your personal certification goals. Throughout the programme, you’ll apply new techniques directly to your product work, reflect on the results, and share your experiences during mentoring sessions. To complete the programme, you must attend at least four mentoring sessions and demonstrate competency across all required learning objectives. The programme has a minimum completion period of six weeks.

Question 16

Are the sessions recorded?

Accepted Answer

No, sessions are not recorded. If you miss one, you can simply join the next in the fortnightly cycle. You have up to one year to complete the programme, and attendance at a minimum of four sessions is required to qualify.

Question 17

Can I take a break if something comes up?

Accepted Answer

Yes—feel free to pause when needed. The rolling format lets you step away and rejoin the active group whenever you’re ready, without losing progress. You’ll have up to a full year from registration to complete the programme.

Question 18

What’s the best way to approach the learning log?

Accepted Answer

Approach it as an extension of your real work, not a separate task. Use any format that suits you—notes, slides, videos, sketches—whatever best captures your learning. The goal is to apply everything directly with your teams, so your day-to-day work becomes the foundation for demonstrating your progress.
