Get hands-on with prompt engineering frameworks, tips and tools to confidently work with AI platforms like ChatGPT.
Unpack real-world product use cases – like AI for productivity and the types of LLMs – while learning how to apply AI responsibly and effectively.
This Career Accelerator is a bridge to a more satisfying, strategic and flexible career in product management.
“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
“The industry input into the Career Accelerator is a key aspect of this programme, because when you look at the course content it’s evident that someone who has real-life experience in building products has had input into it and has structured it in the way that it has been. [...] Their input just makes it invaluable.”
Career Accelerator graduate
“I would recommend this Career Accelerator to somebody who has always wanted to be a product manager but they’re not quite sure how to take that step. [ This course is ] the perfect opportunity to put skills into practice but also have the backing of a world-leading institution like King’s College to hold you accountable and give you some of that credibility that in turn gives you the confidence to go forward and present yourself as a product manager.”
Career Accelerator graduate
“Being able to see actual household organisations being attached to the course and have the opportunity to work with them was definitely something you would not get the opportunity to do outside of the course. [ The experience ] allowed you to feel like you were working towards something – not just something theoretical but something that could have real-world impact.”
