Develop the skillsets needed to guide the delivery of value in a Lean Enterprise by becoming a SAFe® Product Owner/Product Manager (POPM).

During this two-day course, attendees gain an in-depth understanding of how to effectively perform their role in the Agile Release Train (ART) as it delivers value through Planning Intervals (PI).

Attendees explore how to apply Lean thinking to decompose Epics into Features and Stories, refine Features and Stories, manage ART and Team backlogs, and plan and execute Iterations and Planning Intervals.

Attendees also discover how the Continuous Delivery Pipeline and DevOps culture contribute to the relentless improvement of the ART.

There are around 3 hours of mostly video-led learning – supported by additional reading – that will be accessed through the SAFe community platform (https://community.scaledagile.com/s/). An account will need to be set up for this, but all instructions and support will be provided. This will be sent to all learners approximately 1 week prior to the course start date.

The following prerequisites are highly recommended for those who intend to take the SAFe® 6 Product Owner/Product Manager (POPM) certification exam:

  • Attend a Leading SAFe® course

Target audience

This course is designed for Product Owners and Product Managers that will be working inside of SAFe (but is more focussed on Product Ownership than Management). Ideally, course participants will be planning to attend their first PI planning event.
