Course overview
Product management has been over-complicated. We've designed our curriculum to illustrate a linear process for product execution. You'll move from APM, whether associate or aspiring, to PM faster.
In this 4-week course, you will live through a Product Manager's first 100 days.
We will cover:
✅ Onboarding to a project and team
✅ Identifying and prioritizing which problems to work on
✅ Collecting and analyzing data to validate your hypotheses
✅ Coordinating and leading your cross-functional team
✅ Roadmapping features and influencing leadership
✅ Launching your first experiment
⭐ You will walk away with a fully completed product pitch deck that you can submit for your performance evaluation or upcoming interview.
⭐ ⭐ Join a slack community of peers and mentors you can turn to during and after the course.
01
Incoming Product Managers with an offer in hand and eager for an accelerated PM path
02
New Product Managers within their first 6 months on the job, struggling to execute and formalize their process
03
People Managers of early career product managers who excel in refining product thinking and struggle with developing it in their reports
We pair instructor support with self-guided learning. You'll gain additional value by applying on-demand concepts with your peer-pair and ad-hoc with your instructor.
You will gain access to best-in-class templates for OKRs, experimentation, roadmapping, market analysis, prioritization, and more.
To ensure the concepts sink in, each week you will work through two product simulations based on real-life experiences.
There are no dumb questions here! We will cover nuances in every product scenario, and you are always free to bring up any problems you're currently struggling with.
Throughout the course, you'll complete a Product Pitch Deck for you to submit for promotion panels or job interviews. You'll have an additional full week to complete the capstone, then you'll present your capstone to your cohort.
