Best online PM course to break into Product?

I am planning to take the course. After speaking to a few alumni peeps and after finding this thread below, I am keen on joining. Seems decent.

But I also saw few posts that are not helping me encourage to take this forward. Can I get some honest reviews about this? Preferably by someone who has themselves done the program or has talked to such learners closely.

Nextleap PM fellowship is worth it?

Hi everyone. 

I have been a PM for last 4.5 years and recently got laid off. I am looking for some courses, certifications or anything to upskill myself until I find another job. It’ll helpful to do something that I can add to my resume in order to justify the gap that’s getting created in between jobs. 

Any help would be highly appreciated. 

Thanks.

PM | Looking for ways to Upskill

Sharing some reflections on this:

1. Product is not a function with a large hierarchy / multiple levels in the ladder. Managerial responsibility comes in very late in the product career and the spans are typically small (relative to other functions like engineering, sales, operations). This also means a steeper funnel to the top and only a handful VP Product roles in the industry.

2. Product is centered around technology and digital consumer trends, both of which are fast changing. This requires constant unlearning and relearning. But more critically, this also means that previous knowledge/experience hits a plateau on marginal value beyond a basic threshold (where you have developed some essential product semse and skills).

3. Product managers are also much higher-paid vs other functional peers, at comparable years of experience. This means that a PM gets to a very high salary (say, 1+ crore) by the age of 40 (15-20y into their career). Tech functions in non-tech companies (like FMCG, banking) cannot offer that kind of pay, meaning salary growth beyond a point is limited to tech-first companies / limiting addressable market for lateral moves.

All of these considererd, how should PMs think about the longevity of their careers? Unlike traditional roles, this does not seem like a "retire at 60" job. What would be the realistic age one should plan for, at which career growth and salary growth will stagnate? What are ways in which a 80%ile PM can extend their career (eg: also taking up engineering management or P&L responsibility or growth function etc., to increase scope)?

PS: this post is not for the top 5-10% PMs. They will always find roles at VP level etc, this is for the 50-90%ile bucket of PM talent.

Longevity of a product career

Will commend you on a very well written and well articulated post. 
  
 Options for the future will be apparent at ~40.  Most peak roles will be achieved between 45-50. 
  
 Possible exits: 
  
 1. Running Category roles at companies which have a broad canvas, multiple product categories. 
 2. Deputing for and eventually running a P&L or a LoB. 
 3. Sales or more critically Customer Success.  Don't shy away from revenue responsibilities. 
  
 Engineering is a sharp left turn imo.  It's not an overlapping skillset at best and don't see how that is part of a PMs likely roadmap.

Looking for APM/ PM roles

Hi there! I understand this is not exactly about being a PM , a little background - I've done some Comms/ branding work in some big name companies & startups, I have the inclination to learn and understand how PM works and wanted to understand if there's any course/ bootcamp/ project I can take up to apply for Product Marketing Manager roles? I have 4yoe in various roles. Thanks!

Which one among them can be considered? Do these programs really help someone in order to make a transition?
