About this Specialization
This Specialization is intended for both current and new product managers working in digital who want to apply a portfolio of modern practices to developing their products and teams. Through five courses, you will cover applications of product design, hypothesis-driven development and agile, all at the heart of modern product management.
Applied Learning Project
Learners will go from idea to testable product hypotheses to team charter over the course of the specialization – essentially, the preparation a product manager spinning up a new program would execute. Specifically, you’ll draft a focal positioning statement, personas, jobs-to-be-done, value proposition hypotheses, user stories, and integrate them into a team charter.
