  • Measuring success in AI products: the metrics that matter and when to use each.

  • Advanced evals with expert faculty — quality bars you can defend to leadership.

  • Productionization & architecture with an Anthropic engineer: cost, latency & quality trade-offs.

  • Agentic AI & skill building for PMs, taught by an ex-Meta Superintelligence lead.

  • Conversationality as a product (Amazon Alexa+ Sr. PM) and a live neural network simulation (ex-Meta Reality Labs Group PM).

  • AI product strategy session with Deb Liu (former CEO, Ancestry; ex-VP Meta).

  • Build-vs-buy, roadmap judgment, and communicating AI decisions upward.

  • Interview frameworks and positioning for AI PM roles.

  • Build, evaluate & launch a real AI product with dedicated engineer support and a capstone manager guiding you.
