Certified Scrum Professional Product Owner Training with Michigan Technology Services
Michigan Technology Services offers instructor-led Certified Scrum Professional Product Owner (CSP-PO) training, as well as other Agile and Scrum courses, through a partnership with Anu Smalley, a Scrum Alliance Certified Scrum Trainer and Certified Enterprise Coach. Anu has extensive Agile training and product coaching experience and has successfully taught numerous A-CSPO and CSP-PO workshops.
In a pre-Covid world our training would take place at our location in the Farmington Hills/Novi area, 20 miles outside of Detroit, or at your location anywhere around the world. Our Agile workshops and Agile coaching sessions are now offered online/virtually, reducing your need to travel.
Note that while many CST’s fly into metro Detroit to deliver a class like the CSPO or A-CSPO, and then leave, we live here and support the local Agile community. We continue to sponsor regional Agile conferences and local Agile and Scrum meetups. We have strong ties to Agile companies in the metro Detroit area. We have successfully run this course and many other advanced workshops for teams all over the globe.
