Earn the Full ICA Product Management (IC-PRD) Certification
Designed for Product Managers (Project/Program Managers, Product Owners) with a firm grasp of Agile Fundamentals.
Although the course is self-paced, most learners complete Agile Foundations (ICP) in 8-16 hours.
This course is delivered on-demand. That means you can sign up today and start learning at your pace.
The Product Management course is packed with practical tools, modern product thinking, and real-world techniques to help Product Managers create products that customers love and businesses value.
Modern product management starts with understanding what a product actually is — and how product thinking differs from project thinking.
In these lessons we'll explore product types, product ecosystems, product vs project mindsets, and how durable product teams create long-term value.
Great Product Managers understand that products evolve over time — and that customer expectations change at every stage.
In these lessons we'll dive into product lifecycles, adoption curves, Crossing the Chasm, and how strategy, metrics, and priorities shift as products mature.
Successful products exist at the intersection of customer needs, business goals, and market realities.
In these lessons we'll explore market research, customer segments, business drivers, competitive analysis, and how to make better product decisions using evidence instead of assumptions.
Strong product strategy provides clarity without locking teams into rigid plans.
In these lessons we'll explore product vision creation, stakeholder ecosystems, outcomes vs outputs, OKRs, customer behaviors, and building meaningful product metrics that drive learning and growth.
One of the biggest risks in product management is building something nobody actually wants.
In these lessons we'll dive into product discovery, experiments, prototypes, MVPs, customer feedback analysis, and techniques for validating ideas before investing heavily in delivery.
Modern roadmaps are about learning and outcomes — not just shipping features.
In these lessons we'll explore prioritization, evaluating competing ideas, outcome-driven roadmaps, stakeholder alignment, and how to communicate direction while remaining adaptable.
Great products are built by empowered, collaborative teams — not isolated Product Managers.
In these lessons we'll explore product team structures, cross-functional collaboration, dependency reduction, value slicing, and how to match teams to the stage and needs of the product.
Thirty years ago I started helping teams move faster. Better sprints, tighter feedback loops, more adaptive delivery. And it worked — until I realized that shipping fast toward the wrong thing doesn't help anyone.
That realization pushed me to go deeper. How do you figure out what's actually worth building? How do you develop the customer insight and strategic clarity to make that call with confidence? Those questions have shaped the second half of my career — working with startups, non-profits, government agencies, and Fortune 100 companies along the way.
I've gotten it right and I've gotten it wrong. Both have taught me a lot. What I've tried to do in this course is give you the clearest, most practical path I know — from where you are today to thinking and leading like a strong product manager. I want you to walk away with the skills that actually move the needle, and your ICP-PDM certification to show for it.
If you didn't feel like this course was worth every penny, we'll happily refund you - no questions asked.
Traditional, instructor-led training is painfully slow.
Waiting for class to start… 😴

Waiting for the class to come back from breaks … 😴
Waiting for that one guy to finish asking his question … 😴

No, the Product Management course has detailed activities throughout the course and there is no 'final' quiz.
That's the beauty of a self-paced course, you can move through it at whatever speed works best for you. We've seen determined learners finish the course in a day. But most learners prefer to spread the course out over 3-5 days, working a few hours each day.
No, the fundamentals are not covered in this course.
The Product Management course assumes that you have a basic grasp of agile ways of working including methods like Scrum.
If you don't, check out our Agile Foundations course.
The problem with instructor-led courses is that you're not in control. You have to learn at the instructor's pace and you have no ability to go back and refresh yourself on the material after the class ended.
With our course, you can complete the lessons when it's most relevant to your work and go back and review whenever you need to.
By integrating the learning into your flow of work, it becomes far more relevant, timely and effective.
Our brains are not wired to sustain long periods of focus. We learn better in small in small chunks.
This is why YouTube is so addictive. Need to know how to change a tire? Hop on over to Youtube. Watch a 3 minute video and then go and change your tire.
Our courses are designed around this same learning model.
You can finish each lesson in 5-minutes or less. And they are set up so you walk away with s a small bit of value in each lesson that you can then go and apply to your work.
So you don’t need to get through 20 lessons before you can connect the dots and put agile to work.
There are 3 important benefits to this approach:
1. Continuous Progress
Because lessons can be completed so quickly, you'll feel a constant sense of forward momentum and progress. This is why completion rates for our courses.
2. Immediate Impact
Each lesson provides you with a small unit of relevant information that you can immediately put to use.
3. Fits Your Schedule
No need to carve out hours of dedicated time to complete Product Management (ICP-PDM). If you have a few spare minutes between meetings, you can jump in and knock out a lesson.
This course includes access to Toolkit+.
Toolkit+ is an ever-growing library of 20+ templates, cheat sheets and how to's. Toolkit+ is an essential resource for putting the concepts you've learned into practice.
Here's a sample of what's included:
And much more!
This course also includes Kanban Essentials.
In this mini-course you'll learn how to incorporate the 6 Kanban practices into a Scrum workflow in a simple and structured way.
AskMike™ is an AI coach built on everything Mike Lyons knows — trained on his course content, frameworks, articles, and years of hands-on product experience.
But AskMike in this course goes further than anything we've built before. At the start of the course, we get to know you — your role, your product, your organization. From that point on, every AskMike activity is tailored to your situation, not a generic scenario.
Work through a real activity. Get personalized feedback that reflects where you actually are. And at the end of the course, AskMike brings it all together with a coaching summary built around your journey through the material.
It's the most personalized self-paced learning experience we've ever created — because the best coaching doesn't just teach concepts, it meets you where you are.
Neuro-science (and common sense) tells us that newly acquired knowledge that isn’t put into practice shortly after learning it is lost.
We’ve all experienced this. You learned something new and then tried to recall it several months later. It’s like you’re starting from scratch.
This is why you'll have access to the material forever.
You can come back to any part of the course whenever you want and quickly get yourself back up to speed on the topic you need a refresher on.
