Nevertheless, I found a lot of value in the Excellence Level trainings on Product Planning and Orchestration. ISPMA&#8217;s well-structured approach in combination with Hans-Bernd Kittlaus&#8217; broad industry experience laid a state-of-the-art foundation and provided relevant in-depth information. Moreover, it gave me great impulses and opportunities to reflect and improve my own frameworks and practices in my product management team. There was enough room for lively discussions. The inspiring exercises were sufficiently complex, but still easily understandable and even entertaining. I can fully recommend these trainings.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: center;\">Stefan Wenzel, Head of Product Management, SAP Exchange Media, Walldorf, Germany<\/p>\n<p>[\/vc_column_text]\r\n            <div class=\"innotivum--link inno--link-center\">\r\n                 \r\n                <a href=\"https:\/\/www.innotivum.com\/en\/education\/customer-testimonials\/\" target='_blank'  class=\"innotivum--link-item\">...And more praise...<\/a>\r\n             \r\n            <\/div>[vc_empty_space height=&#8221;75px&#8221;][\/vc_column][vc_column width=&#8221;1\/2&#8243;][vc_empty_space height=&#8221;75px&#8221;][\/vc_column][\/vc_row][vc_row][vc_column el_class=&#8221;inno&#8211;head-icon&#8221;][vc_icon icon_fontawesome=&#8221;fa fa-calendar&#8221; el_class=&#8221;inno&#8211;icon&#8221;][vc_custom_heading text=&#8221;Schedule&#8221; use_theme_fonts=&#8221;yes&#8221;][\/vc_column][\/vc_row][vc_row][vc_column el_class=&#8221;inno&#8211;trainings-horizontal&#8221;][vc_column_text][\/vc_column_text][\/vc_column][\/vc_row]<\/p>\n<\/div>","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>[vc_row][vc_column el_class=&#8221;inno&#8211;head-icon&#8221;][vc_icon icon_fontawesome=&#8221;fa fa-spinner&#8221; el_class=&#8221;inno&#8211;icon&#8221;][vc_custom_heading text=&#8221;SPM Excellence Training &amp; Certification&#8221; font_container=&#8221;tag:h1|text_align:left&#8221; use_theme_fonts=&#8221;yes&#8221;][\/vc_column][\/vc_row][vc_row][vc_column width=&#8221;1\/2&#8243;][vc_icon type=&#8221;entypo&#8221; icon_entypo=&#8221;entypo-icon entypo-icon-info&#8221; size=&#8221;xl&#8221; align=&#8221;center&#8221;][vc_column_text] Available Trainings [\/vc_column_text][vc_column_text] Product Strategy 3 Days Product strategy encompasses all topics which deal with the definition and direction of a software product over its strategic timeframe, i.e. beyond a single release.
