Course Information

DevOps Product Owners have a systematic responsibility for the entire lifecycle of a product and have to ensure the maximum value of the product is achieved. To do so successfully, they must be prepared to address a mixed set of requirements, from new product features to incidents in current versions. As if that wasn’t challenging enough, a capacity to engage with a large group of stakeholders, both within the team as well as beyond it, is essential.

In order to respond to all these demands, it is crucial that professionals are as prepared as they can be.
