"The activity portions were really nice to walk me through how the different tools might be used in a product project... This was highly valuable to building and upleveling myself."

"Skiplevel has been by far the most helpful thing I've done in my career to understand software architecture, development lifecycle and get an overview of the key technical elements of our product."

"I'm really glad I found this course. I didn't find anything else like it for product management... It is genuinely helping me to communicate better with the engineers and build stronger relationships."

"I've worked in developer tools marketing for over five years and had already picked up a lot of knowledge, but never had any formal training. The Skiplevel program was so helpful for putting what I'd already learned into context and filling in the many gaps! I wish I'd had access to the program when I first started out in tech. I feel more confident going into conversations with engineers and other technical people now."

"Highly recommend this course if you're looking to fill in the gaps regarding technical concepts in software development... Irene does a great job of breaking down technical concepts and providing real-world examples. The assignments made you think and apply what you learned in the modules... I appreciated the fact that the course was self-paced because there were times when I was really busy and had to focus on other things."

"The course covers a ton of technical content from internet protocols to APIs without feeling overwhelming, and ends very strong by walking students through actually how engineers and PMs build software together. Students will walk away with a solid foundation on the technical side of things and find themselves frantically Googling things a lot less when working with developers."

"I am so glad I signed up for this! It surprised me how there were parts that were already very familiar and understood, but then also sections where I learned completely new concepts. If only I had taken this course as an Associate PM, I could have saved myself some awkward mistakes."

"Really loving how you've broken down so much content into digestible pieces. And the cloud computing section is way more understandable than the required AWS training I had to go through. Seriously for me to finally understand the difference between EC2 and ECS... Priceless!"

"I would recommend it to anyone from associate product managers to founders… I feel much more prepared to talk to developers about technical tradeoffs."

"I wish I had this type of training when I first got into product management. This course helped tighten the screws of things I’ve picked up along the way as well as teach me some new things."

"I now feel more confident with the technical fundamentals, despite knowing some things from before. It was good to go back to some basics while learning new things I did not study before, all in a structured, comprehensive program. I enjoyed the structure of the program and how it consistently covers a wide variety of topics."

"I'm really enjoying this course. I've been interviewing CTO candidates and being able to apply some of the things I've learned on this course has been very helpful."

"I got a huge amount of value out of the Skiplevel program. I've already noticed the value of doing this course on my day-to-day work... I feel I've had a comprehensive overview of the key technical concepts that are relevant to my role."

"This training was pretty great! I was able to complete it at my own pace, which helped with fitting it in around my unpredictable consulting schedule. I've managed roadmaps and backlogs with deeply technical details for years. Now I can do it better because the tradeoffs are much more tangible having done the engineering myself through these examples. Special thanks to Irene for putting together such a thoughtful and helpful course!"

"Skiplevel provided context into standard engineering terms and concepts that I could immediately utilize on the job. From the first module, I could apply what I learned and noticed increased confidence in discussing the technical aspects of software development."

"Honestly the most well structured professional course I've taken... After taking the course, I feel so much more confident engaging with our development team. I understand more of what they're saying and I feel far clearer about how they consider and structure their work."

"Before the Skiplevel course I knew many technical terms without really understanding their meaning (e.g. API), now I have a better technical understanding... I think my new knowledge will be really helpful when communicating with developers."

"Skiplevel does a wonderful job at helping product managers have deeper empathy for their engineering partners by diving deeper into the relevant area of the product development lifecycle. The hands on exercises especially help to more fully understand the nuances of software development."
