“I would definitely recommend this Career Accelerator in Product Management to anyone in my situation: coming from a totally different background who would like to make the most of their inner skills – like communication, adaptivity, flexibility – because product management includes all of these skills, and more.”

Career Accelerator graduate

Stand out in an AI-driven world

Here's how you'll develop the skills the market values most.

Master AI-enabled PM workflows

Lead research synthesis, rapid prototyping and stakeholder communication using integrated AI methods – while developing the product judgment to know when to trust the output and when to challenge it.

Develop data fluency with confidence

Interpret dashboards and funnels, collaborate with analysts, and make evidence-based decisions without needing to code. AI amplifies your data insights, but human judgment drives strategy.

Strengthen the skills AI can't replace

Build strategic thinking, commercial judgment and stakeholder leadership that remain essential as AI handles more routine tasks.

The majority of learning requirements can be completed asynchronously, in your own time. While attendance is strongly recommended for live webinar sessions and masterclasses, recordings will be made available at the conclusion of each session.

Live classes run mid week and outside of standard working hours. However, there is a weekly class that is timezone-friendly for the UK and South East Asia.

The programme is delivered entirely online through a virtual learning environment which is accessible from your personal computer or smartphone. Your personal Success Manager will be available to offer support and guide you through your learning journey.
