Get Expert Certified Scrum Product Owner Training with PDUs in La Jolla California April 2011

FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE
La Jolla, California, United States of America (Free-Press-Release.com) February 9, 2011 -- La Jolla, CA, February 9, 2011 -- Agile expert and author, Mike Cohn will be teaching his popular product owner training course, Certified Scrum Product Owner, at the Sheraton Hotel in beautiful La Jolla, California, April 27-28, 2011.

Certified Scrum Product Owner Training[] teaches the product owner how to use the product backlog as a tool for success. Following successful completion of the course, each participant will be designated a Certified Scrum Product Owner. Visit http://www.mountaingoatsoftware.com/certified-product-owner-training for more information. This scrum training also includes a one-year membership in the Scrum Alliance, where additional member-only material and information are available.

After years of working with many software development teams, Mike feels that "Having a great product owner is critical for Scrum teams. It's one thing for a team to use Scrum to put out more higher quality functionality more quickly, but it's the product owner who makes sure the team is producing the right functionality. This class teaches product owners how to do exactly that."

A veteran of agile projects since 1995, Mike Cohn teaches classes for both new and current agile teams and team members. Class participants benefit by learning new ways of working and practical skills that can be immediately applied. All classes include an appropriate mix of lecture, small-group discussion and hands-on exercises.

Joe Ryan of VeriSign had this to say about Mike's Certified Product Owner Training "Great session - verified the direction we're going - lots of extremely helpful hints and processes!"

Because Mountain Goat Software is a Registered Education Provider through the Project Management Institute (PMI), attendees earn Category 3 PDUs.

Classes will be held in April 2011 at the Sheraton Hotel in La Jolla California. Visit the Mountain Goat Software website, http://www.mountaingoatsoftware.com/training-available to check for available certified scrum and agile training programs and to register.
