Digital Product Management Modern Fundamentals by the University of Virginia
Product management is a new game today, and product managers are at the center of it. Today, especially if your product is primarily digital, you may update it several times per day. Massive amounts of data are available for decision-making, but deep insights into customer motivation and experience are more important than ever. The modern product manager's job is to chart a course and foster a productive working environment for all stakeholders in product success. It is not a simple or easy job, but it is a meaningful job in which you will constantly learn.
This online course is part of the University of Virginia's Professional Certificate program, making it the most academic option on our list. Enrollment is free, but there is a monthly fee if you want to receive a certificate that you can post on LinkedIn or attach to your resume. Financial assistance is also available.
