FREQUENTLY ASKED QUESTIONS
What is required for my Organization to start offering the DASA DevOps Product Owner?
- In order to deliver the DASA DevOps Product Owner, your organization needs to be a DASA DevOps Training Partner.
- If you already are a DASA Training Partner, for example, because you are delivering DASA DevOps Fundamentals, there is nothing extra you need to do.

How does this Program relate to other Product Owner certifications in the market?
- Typically Product Owner Certifications have a strong focus on Agile and Scrum and the software development lifecycle. When software development teams started working with the Scrum model, the Product Owner role became an important and influential role in a development team.
- With DevOps, the scope is expanding, and Ops becomes part of the scope. The DevOps Product Owner is now in charge of not just developing new features, but also for incidents that come in and regular operations work that needs to be performed. The number of stakeholders is expanding, and product lifecycle management becomes more important.
What are the Prerequisites for the DASA DevOps Product Owner certification?
- There are no prerequisites for this program.
- DASA recommends that participants have completed the DASA DevOps Fundamentals prior to joining the course but this is not a requirement.
Why would a Certified Product Owner want to take the DASA DevOps Product Owner Certification – what is the Compelling Reason?
- An existing certified Product Owner is not the immediate target audience for the DASA DevOps Product Owner certification program. The reason being that there is an overlap with the program they may have taken in the past. DASA covers the role of the product owner in the context of DevOps. This includes also elements that a typical product owner operating in a Scrum team would also do.
- The scope of the DASA DevOps Product Owner program is broader, and that is a compelling reason for a product owner to take this course. A small refresher on a number of elements key to a product owner in a dev team, now extended through with a broader set of responsibilities, a full product lifecycle management view, and more stakeholders.
