Suggested sequence

  1. Review 20–30 Product Manager vacancies and record actual tasks, mandatory requirements and tools.
  2. Define the bridge from Event design Visualizer: problem framing through user needs. Prepare two examples where this experience produced a measurable result.
  3. Learn AI-enabled team management and auditing AI management recommendations to the level of completing an independent practical task—not merely finishing a course.
  4. Build a working prototype, publish the code in a repository, and add tests, documentation and a decision record.
  5. Review 20–30 vacancies and choose only courses or certificates that repeatedly appear in employer requirements.
  6. Rewrite your résumé for Product Manager, add the case and begin with test applications, internships, projects or adjacent tasks at your current employer.
Timeline and pay are indicative. They depend on starting skills, location, experience, weekly study time and employer requirements.
