Digital Product Discovery and Roadmapping Training Course – Casablanca, 28 Jun – 9 Jul 2027

Digital Product Discovery and Roadmapping is a 2-week training course for product managers and product owners who shape what digital teams build next, and who each produce a Product Strategy and Outcome Roadmap. Organisations now compete on how quickly they learn what customers value and stop funding features nobody uses. The course is delivered by Jupiter Prime Training for product leaders moving from feature delivery to evidence-led direction.

Why Digital Product Discovery and Roadmapping Matters Now

Three forces shape digital product work today: customers who switch apps after one poor experience, finance leaders who ask for proof that each release moves a measurable outcome, and engineering capacity that is expensive and scarce. Teams that run continuous discovery and publish outcome-based roadmaps waste fewer sprints and keep stakeholders aligned. Teams that run on feature requests ship late, accumulate unused functionality and lose credibility with executives. The course draws on Jobs to Be Done (JTBD), the Opportunity Solution Tree, Objectives and Key Results (OKRs), the RICE scoring model and the Double Diamond design process.

Who Gains Most from Digital Product Discovery and Roadmapping

• Product managers accountable for outcomes of a mobile app, platform or digital service
• Product owners who refine backlogs and set sprint goals with engineering squads
• Product leads who negotiate scope and sequencing with commercial and operations directors
• Specialists moving from business analysis or user experience into a product role
• Owners of internal digital tools who must prove adoption and value to sponsors

Digital units in banking, retail e-commerce and public service portals gain most when product managers and their engineering and design counterparts attend together and leave with one shared discovery cadence.

Digital Product Discovery and Roadmapping Capabilities

Participants replace opinion-led backlogs with evidence from customers, metrics and experiments, then turn that evidence into a roadmap executives can fund.

• Design continuous discovery interviews and assumption tests — which opportunities earn engineering time
• Build an Opportunity Solution Tree linked to a measurable outcome — focus for squad planning
• Calculate RICE scores and weigh them against strategic bets — quarterly prioritisation decisions
• Specify a North Star metric and input metrics with OKRs — executive reporting and funding
• Communicate a now-next-later outcome roadmap — commercial, operations and technology stakeholders
• Align product trios of product, design and engineering — faster, shared decisions

Key Digital Product Discovery and Roadmapping Terms

• Product discovery — the work of testing which problems are worth solving and which solutions customers will use before building them.
• Jobs to Be Done — a lens describing the progress a customer seeks in a situation, rather than their demographic profile.
• Opportunity Solution Tree — a visual map linking a desired outcome to customer opportunities, candidate solutions and experiments.
• North Star metric — the single measure that best captures the value customers receive and predicts long-term product success.
• Outcome roadmap — a plan organised by problems and measurable results over time horizons rather than by dated feature lists.
• Product trio — the product manager, designer and lead engineer who make discovery decisions jointly.

Digital Product Discovery and Roadmapping Questions (FAQ)

What is digital product discovery and roadmapping, and why does it matter now?

It is the practice of testing customer problems and solutions before building, then planning work around measurable outcomes. It matters now because engineering capacity is costly and customers abandon digital products quickly when they fail to deliver value.

Which roles gain most from digital product discovery and roadmapping training?

Product managers and product owners gain most, along with analysts and designers moving into product roles. Teams running banking apps, e-commerce platforms or public service portals apply the methods in their next planning cycle.

How does digital product discovery and roadmapping differ from an agile delivery course?

It decides what is worth building rather than how to build it efficiently. Agile delivery courses focus on sprints and ceremonies; this one covers customer research, experiments, prioritisation models, product metrics and outcome roadmaps.

What do you bring back from digital product discovery and roadmapping training?

You bring back a strategy and outcome roadmap for a real product, with an opportunity tree, experiment backlog, prioritisation scores and a metric tree. You can present it to sponsors at your next product review.

Digital Product Discovery and Roadmapping: The Way Forward

The Product Strategy and Outcome Roadmap first informs which customer opportunity the squad tackles next quarter and which features are paused. Product managers use it with sponsors, design leads and engineering managers in planning reviews. After its first use, the perspective worth revisiting is whether experiment evidence, rather than stakeholder pressure, actually drove the sequencing decisions.
