It was a great experience overall. The course included latest methodologies and practical techniques. The instructor was super supportive throughout the course. I was a part of product management course. It was well segmented in terms of module and the exercises in between classes was very useful.- AnonymousStudent • Product Manager Certificate™ • OnlineNov 13, 2023Overall ExperienceInstructorsCurriculumJob Assistance
Completely Useless
I took the course and am now not only with no job as a PM but also down $4100 because not only was the course a poor learning experience but so has been its promise in making me more marketable as a PM. - Neha PruthiStudent • Product Manager Certificate™ • TorontoMar 07, 2023Overall ExperienceInstructorsCurriculumJob Assistance
Very Informational
I had an amazing experience of attending Product Management course at Brainstation. The course was structured in a way that made it easier to understand and grasp the concepts even for a naive like me in products space. The slides were very informational along with videos which made it more interesting. A big shout out to our trainer Ms Andrea who really explained the concepts well and helped us throught this journey. - Jon SGraduate • Product Manager Certificate™ • OnlineDec 26, 2022Overall ExperienceInstructorsCurriculumJob Assistance
Great course for PM
Product school has been a pretty great experience for me. It allowed me to learn the foundations of product management. It is not always enough to land a PM job (that depends on your background) but it definitely set me on the right path. - AnonymousGraduate • Product Manager Certificate™ • TorontoOct 21, 2022Overall ExperienceInstructorsCurriculumJob Assistance
Great Course!
The product management course instructors are awesome and super supportive. The content included in the course although intensive and comprehensive, I enjoyed the 10 weeks I spent learning about PM and excited to start my PM career. - Patrick CheronStudent • Product Manager Certificate™ • OnlineVerified by LinkedInJul 22, 2022Overall ExperienceInstructorsCurriculumJob Assistance
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. - Stephan BeckerProduct LeadVerified by LinkedInJul 13, 2022Overall ExperienceInstructorsCurriculumJob AssistanceN/A
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.

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 about the slides" but brought some really applicable real-life examples. The exercises we did he also ensured to create we all presented and discussed the different outcomes. - AbhishekJun 02, 2022Overall ExperienceInstructorsCurriculumJob Assistance
PMC
Oleg is an amazing instructor, he went above and beyond and was always happy to ensure that every aspect of the course and every idea was explored to its fullest. The course was well designed and gave us ample opportunity to put it to practice. My fellow cohort mates were amazing to collaborate on different projects with and learn from as well. - EmSenior Experience Designer • Student • Product Manager Certificate™ • OnlineVerified by LinkedInMar 30, 2022Overall ExperienceInstructorsCurriculumJob Assistance
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 project canvases in Mural are poorly designed and not explained well. (Design and communication should be baseline for this space, so I'm confused again as to why the school does not practice what it sells). I also found it frustrating that one of my team members did not collaborate well. Because of the structure of the class, I was stuck with them throughout. The one plus was that I was able to use the language from the syllabus and course content to boost my resume, but in retrospect, I wish I had just signed up for Coursera or another option at the fraction of the cost. Really not worth the $5K price tag. - Michelle CoulterEducation Consultant • Student • Product Manager Certificate™ • San FranciscoVerified by LinkedInDec 10, 2021Overall ExperienceInstructorsCurriculumJob Assistance
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.

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 providing us with real life examples, chunks of wisdom and advice, encouragement, and perspective. I also enjoyed the additional recommended resources she provided throughout the course that added additional context to the lectures. My journey would not have been possible without the exceptional support, guidance, and communication from our instructor. I highly recommend enrolling in her class and listening to her podcast! - Harsha GaddeSr. Product Manager • Graduate • Product Manager Certificate™ • OnlineOct 19, 2021Overall ExperienceInstructorsCurriculumJob Assistance
Best instructor and class programming
I graduated Shilpa Vir’s PMC cohort recently. It is very rare to find a charismatic and motivational instructor with exceptional product expertise. I was very fortunate to attend a class full of joy and meet new friends. Product school’s programming and Shilpa’s unparalleled big tech product expertise will help you get up and running with confidence. Thank you Shilpa and product school for having me. - Vsevolod LapinHead of Product • Graduate • Product Leadership Certificate™ • OnlineOct 18, 2021Overall ExperienceInstructorsCurriculumJob AssistanceN/A

Shilpa brought a lot of practical knowledge to the classes, and live discussions with the diverse group of professionals from various domains were inspiring and informative.
The curriculum covers many aspects of the PM role - from business strategy to deeply technical areas, which makes it feel rushed a bit to fit into 8 6-hour long classes.
Nevertheless, a highly recommended course with lots of applied knowledge and a great diverse cohort, enjoyed it a lot.

Schools and universities may be scrambling to figure out remote learning, but coding bootcamps have essentially been preparing for this since 2013. Online coding bootcamps already use Zoom video, Slack, GitHub, and VS Code Live Share for pair programming, online lectures, and to connect mentors and instructors with students. Of course, you can learn to code online but it doesn t stop there! Maybe you ve needed to learn SQL for a while, or sharpen your data science skills, or ...

While coding bootcamps can produce stellar developers, Product Management is another integral part of a company's technical team. It s an organizational function that entails a combination of marketing, development, and analysis. The ability to get into the nitty-gritty of coding is obviously a powerful skill, but product management ensures that the code is maximizing the effectiveness of that power and thus, maximizing profit. These product management bootcamps can ...
