Our take

Online courses have been booming in recent years, with students forced online, workers upskilling for career pivots, and companies obliged to carry out training virtually. But one area that has received little attention has been Product Management. This has cleared the way for Product School to become a leading player in online Product Management courses.

This has timed well with a rapid increase in demand for Product Managers over the last couple of years. Companies are increasingly prioritising Product Managers with specialised skill sets over more experienced hires. This means that the kind of intensive, short-form courses offered by Product School are more worthwhile for those working within this space than the longer, pricier MBA route.

Product School have also managed to net a roster of high-profile instructors with experience at the likes of Netflix, Slack, and YouTube, lending further value to their courses. With over 1,000 partner companies - including Fortune 500 players - and a 10,000+ strong alumni network, Product School are an impressive organization operating a finely tuned and highly valuable operation.
