As we bask in the excitement surrounding the introduction of our innovative Product Marketing Manager Certification (PMMC)™, it's a perfect moment to reflect on the journey that brought us here and the impact the course is already having on our students.

Launching with overwhelming success, the first PMMC cohort not only sold out but also achieved an exceptional student satisfaction score, mirroring our commitment to excellence in education. The demand for Product Marketers, as highlighted by Gartner, outstrips supply 2-to-1, further underscores the significant need for a hands-on certification that not only teaches theory, but also gives students the practical skills they need to get hired as Product Marketers. We're thrilled to see a growing number of professionals seizing this opportunity!
