Student Praise for the Product Marketing Bootcamp

“This course takes anyone with no or limited knowledge of Marketing to a level of knowledge where this person would function as a Product Manager.

This course is great because it is practical, with templates ready to go straight into the workflow of most companies. And the pace is great. You never get bored, yet you have time to reflect and learn.

I have recommended this course to my entire team.”

"Having been in my current PMM role for a year, having moved over from a more campaign based position, my manager recommended I partake in the bootcamp training to help familiarize myself with areas of the role I was not yet covering; the scope of a PMM being so wide and varied. 

This product marketing course provided valuable information that I was immediately able to apply to my current role, and has allowed me to feel more confident in meetings where items are discussed that previously I was lacking clarity on, or not feeling confident speaking up on.  

The course is broken down in such a way that makes it very easy to dip in and out of, depending on your own schedule, and yet is still engaging enough that at the times when you have an hour or so free to do a bigger chunk, you don’t feel bored and get distracted.

I would recommend this course to anyone starting off in their role as a PMM or considering it as a future career."
