PSPO-AI Essentials exam preparation

International AI certification for Product Owners

Prove your AI proficiency as a Product Owner with the Scrum.org PSPO-AI Essentials certification!

What is the PSPO-AI Essentials exam preparation course about?

Good product decisions today require more than market and customer knowledge, the Product Owner also needs to know where AI speeds up the work and where the responsibility remains theirs. From discovery through the backlog to prioritisation, every step changes once you use AI deliberately.

By the end of the course you will:

  • understand how AI supports modern product development, and know the fundamental concepts: machine learning, generative AI, LLMs, agentic AI
  • know where AI strengthens Product Ownership practice through real use cases
  • be able to apply practical prompting techniques to everyday Product Owner work
  • be able to build AI into your daily work, from market research to backlog refinement
  • recognise the ethical and security risks associated with AI, and know where human decision-making is required
  • be prepared for the Scrum.org PSPO-AI Essentials exam
