Hello! I am planning to shift my career to product management after two years of marketing experience. I have researched about Upgrad Product Management from Duke University and IBS Hyderabad are they good?
Both program duration is about 6 month and costing about 2.4Lacs.

These programs will not help you with placement if you are thinking of an outcome. Even if you are only thinking of learning, both programs are massively overpriced. You can choose a program with lower investment or if you are motivated enough, you can learn the concepts for free via online resources as well.

Obviously, they have to sell their useless course to make money, they will say placement is 100%, ISB's flagship PGP does not have 100% placement, how can this course that they don't even run (Emeritus runs it for them) have 100% placement. You need to do your research by talking to past students. If you are new to product management, you can try nextleap.

all online courses are fake. They will sell you the course saying its from IIT, IIM and ISB.
Ask any HR if they think IIT tag on some fake certificate will be considered while interviewing a candidate they will say NO.

All these programs are very costly because they have sales team thry sponsor IPL show ads on TV they need to recover those costs.

No one wll garantee placement.

Ping students who already did these fake courses and ask them about placement and learn the truth.

I am project manager in clinical research industry (CRO). After earning PhD, I gave up my science dream to take a more stable job. After slowly climbing the ladders, I feel like I finally got a seat at the table. Half the days I like the hustle, but now I miss being creative. I want to take more brainstorming, decision making responsibilities but I don’t see that in the career path for PM. Career path usually goes like this- Sr PM, Director, Sr Director, and so on. But all do same work.
