What is this Course is About

SAFe® is short for the Scaled Agile Framework. It is where Agile meets scale.

The SAFe® Product Owner and SAFe® Product Manager (POPM) course covers the tactical responsibilities of these roles in the Agile Release Train (ART). The course and resulting certification give you the guidance and tools to work effectively in remote environments with distributed teams.

Learn how product owners and product managers should work together to achieve the best possible customer and business outcomes. The SAFe POPM course will teach you how to adopt a customer-centric approach to building products, using the Scaled Agile Framework® to deliver more value, faster. Topics covered in this course include the daily role of POs and PMs; collaborating with engineering teams and business stakeholders; how to write epics, features, and stories; and how to design, prioritise, build, test, and deliver products with increased productivity and higher quality.

We don’t just teach SAFe® by reading a script. We share real-life experiences (both horror stories and successes).
