    Product Manager Certification

    Product school was a great resource in helping me with my industry transfer into product management. My instructor, Toby Martin Hughes, was very informative and is definitely a very talented product management instructor. I am pleased to have attended this class, and look forward towards my career as a PM.

    Product Leadership Course (PLC)

    There's no real school for Product Management, but I think all PMs know that working with industry experts is the best way to gain that key PM skill. Although the content of the PLC course was decent (it's a lot of information you can find elsewhere for much less cost). The benefit really comes from working with a great instructor. Navin Nair taught our class and I really enjoyed his teaching style. He ensured we had a good class discussion around different topics, didn't just "talk abou...

    Not worth the hype

    Not sure how Product School has such raving reviews. The majority of the learning takes place virtually via videos and slides. The content is informative but the online learning platform is not super user friendly which is surprising for a school that supposedly is specialized in tech product mgmt. The 36.5 hours of instructor-led learning promised in the course brochure are not really instructor led (it's you working on a group project for 90+ minutes of each 120 minute class). The proj...

    PMC Course

    I have thoroughly enjoyed my live PMC sessions with my classmates, project team members and the instructor Ronke Majekodunmi. Before I enrolled in her class, I thoroughly researched all instructors on the syllabus. I wanted to find someone who looked like me so that I could see myself in that role. She was the only one on that list and it has been a fantastic experience being a learner in her class. Ronke breathed life into the lectures, PowerPoints, and videos by provid...

    PLC - Shilpa Vir

    Great eight weeks! I enjoyed the course instructor Shilpa Vir and how she shared the knowledge: very easy, with all her passion for product management with life examples. Easy to listen, easy to learn and explore new things.
    Great colleagues from different types of business help you to take a further look at the same points.

    Product Executive Certificate

    My Product Executive Certificate class with instructor Shilpa Vir was a fun, informative and realistic bootcamp for product professionals in both leadership and more tenured in their careers. Real life anecdotes, challenging product norms and reflection really helped bring my product game to the next level. I would recommend this course to those looking to stay at the top of their product game as they lead teams and direct product lines within their organizations.

    Product Leadership Course

    I really enjoyed the course and felt that it was very worth the time. Shilpa was an excellent instructor and brings a lot of great experience and expertise to bear in discussions within the class.

    I will only suggest that the ML parts of the course be spun off into a separate course.

    Great Experience - Highly recommend

    My experience with The Product School was great! The course did a good job of ramping the student up from the basics of product development to the eventual final project. The course is supplemented with the product schools own book that is a great reference for when you don't understand a concept. My Instructor, Farhaz Karmali had a strong background in Product Management and could pull examples from his own experience when teaching us. He's great when explaining different concepts of PM...

    Wonderful journey

    Very interesting and eye opening

    It's been a very interesting journey. Because the program and the instructor "Vishal" were exactly what I needed to bring together my experience into focus and make a significant impact on my role and with my team in a very short time.
    The structure of the course is designed very well, and the selection of the instructor worked very well for me. 
    Vishal has deep experience that he was generous in sharing with us. In addition to he managed to create a good atmosphere where everyone ...
