PROFESSIONAL SCRUM PRODUCT OWNER III (PSPO III) CERTIFICATION

COURSE OVERVIEW

The Professional Scrum Product OwnerTM III (PSPO III) certification validates your ability to apply the Scrum framework to solve complex problems and deliver valuable products in the real world. Anyone attempting the PSPO III should have extensive Scrum and Product Owner experience. Earning PSPO III requires a very high level of Scrum knowledge and extensive experience maximizing value as a Product Owner.

Attending a course is neither required nor sufficient for this certification. However, attending Professional Scrum Product Owner and Professional Scrum Product Owner – Advanced training is recommended. Similarly, possessing a PSPO I and PSPO II certification is not required, but it is strongly recommended. Evidence shows it is important to pass the PSPO I and PSPO II to
get a good baseline of your level of knowledge. Anyone scoring below 90% on the PSPO I and PSPO II will find earning the PSPO III very difficult.

PREPARING FOR PSPO III

PSPO III questions ask you to know the content of and understand the context of the Scrum Guide and apply your own Product Ownership experience. While the Scrum Competencies are similar to those of the PSPO I and PSPO II, you will be required to move beyond simple knowledge. You will be asked to describe how you would respond to different scenarios while remaining true to Scrum.

PSPO III draws broadly from the following Professional Scrum Competencies and Focus Areas;
• Understanding and Applying the Scrum Framework:
  o Empiricism, Scrum Values, Scrum Team, Events, Artifacts, Done
• Developing People and Teams:
  o Self-Managing Teams, Facilitation
• Managing Products with Agility:
  o Forecasting & Release Planning, Product Vision, Product Value, Product Backlog Management, Business Strategy, Stakeholders & Customers
• Evolving the Agile Organization:
o Portfolio Planning, Evidence Based ManagementTM

While experience is most important, reviewing material about how to prepare for PSPO I and PSPO II may also be helpful.
Familiarity with the changes to the 2020 Scrum Guide will also be beneficial as the use of outdated terminology from prior
versions of the Scrum Guide will count against you.
