Six Monday evenings on Zoom, and by the end you knew whether product management was for you and how to get there.
Product management is one of tech's best-paid and least-understood disciplines, and there was no obvious way in for our members. So we built one: a six-week, high-level tour of the product discipline, run twice across 2022. Over 50 people started their product journey with it.
Graduates left with three things: an honest picture of what a PM actually does day to day, product skills they could use immediately in their current job, and a clearer answer to "do I want this career, and how do I get it?"
It wasn't just theory. Participants built and pitched a product case study, joined a fireside chat with expert PMs, and learned inside a private cohort space on our Slack.
£100 early bird for six expert-taught weeks, with cheaper student places. And for people who were long-term unemployed, earning under £15k, carers or single parents, places were free. That mix, paid keeping it sustainable and funded spaces keeping it open, became the template for everything we charged for.
9+ years across startups, big tech and consultancy, plus her own product ventures. Passionate about getting underrepresented people into product.
Built user-centred products across government departments, mentored career changers, and co-founded web and marketing companies along the way.
"Excellent course. The content was very well made and flowed in logical steps with two very friendly and competent teachers. The weekly homework was a great way to test what we learnt. I wish this were available when I was a student at university." Shehryar Khan · Pathway to Product alumni
"It's definitely broadened my knowledge and given me an invaluable insight into the role of a PM. Would strongly recommend Muslamic Makers to all!" Sahra Mohamed · Pathway to Product alumni
"The presentations each week were very professional, the course structure made sense and was really well put together. The practical tips and real-world examples from the course directors' experiences were extremely helpful." Nida Harwood · Pathway to Product alumni
