Frequently Asked Questions

If you have any questions about the program that aren’t covered here, email us at and we’ll get in touch.
What does a product manager do?

A product manager is responsible for overseeing the development and management of a product or a set of products throughout their lifecycle. They play a crucial role in bridging the gap between customer needs, business objectives, and the development team.

How many hours a week should I plan on committing to in order to be successful in this learning track?

This course is completely self-paced. Complete it in a day, a week, a month, or whatever works for your schedule!

Do I need experience in tech or need to know how to code to be successful?

While having a technical background can be beneficial for a product manager, it is not a strict requirement. The role of a product manager is primarily focused on strategic planning, market analysis, and effective communication, rather than hands-on coding or technical implementation.
