Our Unique Format
Most on-line training is boring and prone to distraction. Too many instructors talk for far too long about topics and theories not relevant to real world application. With our A-CSM program, all our videos are crisp (no more than fifteen minutes) and are combined with practical exercises so you can immediately put into practice what you have learned under the mentorship of a Certified Scrum Trainer. Leveraging our experience with Accelerated Learning, your Applied Frameworks Online Training instructors have derived a powerful training approach that keeps the A-CSM courses short, fun, focused and meaningful to the real world of Agile software development.
Build relationships with instructors and classmates
Learning works best when you are in a community and the best learning experiences are shared.
Each month, you can join one or more one-hour Virtual Classrooms with your Certified Scrum Trainer and other students to check progress, share ideas, answer questions, offer encouragement and receive support. In our program, you will feel like you are completing your A-CSM journey within a team, even though it is an online program.
Who is not a candidate for this program
This course is not for people looking for a short, two or three day workshop. There are many other options for you. This program requires at least two months for Express students and four months for Premium students to successfully complete the courses, apply what they learn along the way, and find time to participate in virtual classrooms.

What Makes our Course Unique
Training with Applied Frameworks.
When we sat down to design this program for the Scrum Alliance, we were guided by three core principles:
- Our Premium program sets the bar for rigor and completeness in its category. However, we understand that some learners may have a need for speed, which is why we also offer an Express option to help you achieve your goals quickly.
- We believe you should be in control of pace and direction of your learning journey. You decide what you learn, when.
- Many students benefit from direct instructor interaction. That’s why we offer a Premium subscription option with even more personalized feedback and advice.
If you have decided to become an Advanced Certified Scrum Product Owner, you are serious about your career. This program is designed for you.
