A process owner is an individual accountable for the performance of a process and for ensuring the process delivers value to its stakeholders.

Process owners manage the requirements of process stakeholders, translate those requirements into process performance objectives, and oversee the entire process design and improvement lifecycle. This course positions learners to successfully complete the Certified Agile Process Owner exam.
