What is Professional Product Discovery and Validation™
In this one-day course, students work hands-on as they follow a case study as a way of learning to apply techniques throughout the class. This course is designed for Product Owners, product managers, business analysts and product teams to enable them to better incorporate discovery and validation into their product development and delivery processes.
Leveraging product discovery and validation techniques, the course takes a user-centric approach, illustrating how this comes together with development and delivery. Students learn how discovery, delivery, and validation fit together to lead to an end-to-end evidence based approach to product development.
Students learn how to:
- Increase user value created by deliberately designing experiments to validate assumptions about user’s needs and wants
- Reduce waste and improve ROI by consciously only investing based on evidence gathered from validation
- Improve organizational collaboration and alignment by engaging with key stakeholders using data instead of opinions
- Unlock creativity by reframing work as problems to solve rather than tasks to execute
Who should attend Professional Product Discovery and Validation™
This course is appropriate for students who are currently working as a Product Owner, product manager, product leaders, business analysts and others on the product team who are looking for practical ways to increase user value created, make data-informed decisions, and better investments. This course is also suitable for members of product teams.
