ICAgile's Product Management Training
The IIBA Albany Capital District Chapter is excited to host a virtual training event focusing on ICAgile's Product Management
Product Management
This event is an ICAgile accredited course consisting of three afternoon sessions of training focusing on product management. Upon completion, participants will be granted the ICAgile Certified Professional, Product Management Certification.
How can we bring products to market which customers love in a way that is more expedient and more efficient? This is the role of the product manager. In this course you will learn how to oversee the product lifecycle and create and advance the product strategy – carefully balancing concerns between market conditions, business strategy, and tactical delivery. In doing so you’ll learn how to embrace the needs of all three to add value to your organization, your stakeholders, and most importantly, your customer.
Through this course, you will build an understanding of the product lifecycle and how to manage the product through its phases. You will learn how to bring the customer voice, competitive analysis, market trends and other knowledge into the organization to drive better business decisions. You will gain new techniques for communicating your product vision and roadmap as well as a toolkit to deliver better products.
