Building and marketing a product is a delicate undertaking that involves the collaboration of multiple teams and stakeholders. Product management is the art of bringing the different components together to build a product that solves a problem, something that the customer wants, and aligns with an organization’s business goals.

A product manager is responsible for every phase of this process from ideation to marketing to product retirement. The best product management certification in India helps you gear up for each aspect of the role through hands-on experience.

Since Product management has a direct impact on the success of a business, the role is reserved for only the best. Aspirants must pass through layers of meticulous screening to land a product management job, and excellence is the basic requirement for keeping it. The online product management course by the Institute of Product Leadership is designed with these things in mind.

The International Certificate in Product Management course takes you through a well-thought-out path that prepares you to hit the ground running as a product manager. The curriculum leans towards experiential learning as opposed to memorizing theories. You learn from industry practitioners – product leaders in top tech firms.

With weekly live sessions, you get the opportunity to interact with and learn from experts, small class sizes give you the scope for healthy interactions, and the exams are replaced by Skill Hackathons. You get the opportunity to learn on your own time with video lessons and material that stay accessible post-course. Overall, the ICPM program is as modern, state-of-the-art, and effective as it gets.
