• Practical Product Management

  Certification , Technology Product Management

  Practical Product Management by Pragmatic Marketing is a common rite of passage for product managers in technology companies - which I paid for because I wanted to learn more about entrepreneurship and product management (worth every penny, imho). At the end of the seminar, there's an optional certification test - which I took and passed (of course!)
