    Good investment of time and money

    ★★★★★

    Took this 8-week course starting Feb, 2016 and finished in Apr, 2016. I want to rate this experience as a five star and here's my explanation.

    In my opinion, when I was choosing a training program, I want to look at three aspects:

    1. Takeaway
    2. Input
    3. Accessibility

    Let me elaborate on each one of this points for Product School:

    Great starting point to your product management journey

    This review is based on my experience going through this program early last year. I was in the 2nd "cohort" or the 2nd session Product School had. Since the program was fairly new at the time, I was a bit wary going into it, but it turned out great!

    These were my observations (in no particular order), but do keep in mind that they were from an earlier "iteration" of this program, so things may be different by now:

    • The first 1-2 classes were pretty fast paced. The reas...

    Concepts put into action - Product School, Silicon Valley Campus

    I have known for well over a year now that Product Management is what excites me and interests me the most. However I had not taken any action towards pursuing that goal. So when I started this course, I had a clear goal of actively studying and pursuing Product Management in my career. Now that I have completed the course, I can definitely say that I am in the right direction. 

    Product school has designed an eight weeks course on product management, where students get to not on...

    Pros:

    Lots of really informative content.

    Knowledgable and helpful instructors.

    Concise Product Management Course

    In mid-2014 I was being considered for a Product Manager role at Facebook and I had made it quite far in the process; having visited the headquarters and met up with a senior PM and being invited to a closed PM mixer by my recruiter, however, I couldn’t believe how far I had come but deep at the back of my mind I had this impostor syndrome. I just didn’t feel confident enough. I felt there were some holes in my Product management skillset: analytics, metrics, scrum, etc....

    Product School -NY Review

    Product School offers an amazing platform to learn and practice the tools required to be a successful product manager. I was a student of Product School, New York and it helped me immensely in understanding the nuances of product management. Although I had experience as a product manager in India before I joined the program, the course contributed substantially in enhancing my knowledge.

    The final project that each student needs to create, helps everyone to understand and execute...

    SF Product School

    Product School is a great fit whether you have zero product management experience and want to make a career shift or you've recently started your PM journey and need some guidance. You will leave this course knowing how to ship a product that makes your users awesome.

    The Curriculum:
    You can view the curriculum on the site, so I won't go into everything it covers. What I enjoyed about the curriculum is it gave me a blue print to follow that I can always refer back to. During...

    SF - Product School Review

    I'm reviewing for the SF Jan 2016 course. 

    Pros:

    Product School has only one training course, which is Product Manager training, so they have to get it right, otherwise they fail. And I think they got it right. I come from a background of 9 years in IT Consulting, of which software development is a huge part and I believe that this course does a good job of breaking down that process into logical parts that someone without the backgroun...

    Everything I needed in one place!

    It can be tough to sift through all the info on the internet about best practices vs preferred methods and then making an informed decision on what was best for my role and company. 

    What Product School provides is a conversation, an experience, and an application to source check and put into practice the learnings of a huge network of amazing product managers from all over the globe. 

    I had a fantastic time at Product School and can't ...

    Great curriculum and experience!

    I'm very happy with my Product School experience. I attended the San Francisco weekend session during the fall and I loved my cohort and instructor. Attending the Saturday class was intense - a lot of information was thrown at us but we also had guided class materials, our instructor, classmates, as well as the PS community as resources to reach out to. The eight weeks went by surprisingly fast and I was sad when the course was completed but I do still keep in touch with my former classmat...

    Thumbs up - Product School

    Product Management is considered an accidental profession. There aren't many schools that offer a good framework to understand product management. I was a software developer in my previous life where I could see concrete deliverables assigned to me. I grew into a product manager role but struggled with it and in keeping with my developer mindset became more of a technical lead rather than a product manager. But within a couple of weeks at product school I could sense the difference in the ...
