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... Read More 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. 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!

I attended Product Leadership Certificate program in 2021 and enjoyed it very much, especially thanks to our fantastic instructor Shilpa Vir. Shilpa brought a lot of practical knowledge to the classes, and live discussions with the diverse group of professionals... Read More 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.

Shilpa Vir made this course really amazing! I would love to take another course with her. I am thankful to her for putting her heart and soul into teaching us.

Pros: - Very knowledgeable and approachable lecturer.

Again, the... Read More exchange with Shilpa and students was great. - Final project presentations and feedback was super valuable and I could learn a lot during the session. - Availability of Shilpa and the option to have 1-on-1's Cons: - Content can be a bit dry and sometimes feel a bit rushed. - Not all of the content applicable and might require some more information how different types of POs can/have to use it. - It would be great to start with some basic PO types and identify own type, to better approach and discuss topics with other students. - I would have liked more daily best practices and also stakeholder management topics at a higher level.

I completed Product Leader course today with Shilpa Vir and learned a lot. My favorite parts of the class include: 1. doing group exercises with classmates of diverse background and experiences; and 2. learning from feedback from Shilpa, our instructor,... Read More and reflections from classmates that helped bridge concepts with real-world challenges. Shilpa demonstrated extensive knowledge in production management and her passion for product management was contagious. Her unique insight and perspective were particularly valuable for me who have years' experiences in adjacent disciplines but is relatively new to Product Management. One suggestion to make the program even stronger would be to consider implementing some sort of Office Hours so students can get additional guidance outside of the class to maximize learning. The Office Hours may be hosted by instructor (or a teaching assistant) and scheduled dynamically on a needed basis.
