01. Overview

The gap between "we use AI somewhere" and "we build and lead AI products" is real. If you're a product manager with a few years of experience and you want to move into AI product roles—or make your current role more AI-native—this accelerator is built for that transition.

Launched in 2026, the Next Gen PM AI PM Accelerator is a five-week, cohort-based program run by Jyothi Nookula, who has led AI and product work at Netflix, Meta, and Amazon and holds over a dozen AI-related patents. You get 10 live 90-minute classes plus 10 interactive Q&A sessions, so you're learning with an instructor and peers, not only from videos. The format is designed for PMs who learn best by doing: you'll work on real-world case studies and hands-on portfolio projects, including building your own custom GPT. That kind of work is exactly what hiring managers look for when they evaluate AI PM candidates.

The curriculum covers the technical and strategic sides of AI product management. You'll build foundations in machine learning and deep learning so you can have better conversations with engineers and data scientists and make smarter trade-offs. You'll work on AI ethics and decision-making—how to develop responsible AI solutions, prioritize fairness and transparency, and balance innovation with trust. You'll also get frameworks for identifying and evaluating AI product opportunities, implementing responsible AI in practice, and bridging technical and business teams with AI-specific go-to-market thinking.

Who it's for: product managers with around three or more years of experience who are aiming to move into AI product roles or level up their impact on AI initiatives. The program is also featured and well-reviewed (4.8/5 from 90+ reviews, with 1,500+ learners), which reflects both the instructor's track record and the practical focus.

Key benefits: you'll leave with a stronger AI portfolio (including custom GPT work), a clearer view of how to spot and assess AI product opportunities, and practices you can use day to day for responsible AI and cross-functional alignment. If you're ready to invest five weeks in live, project-based learning with an industry-leading instructor, this accelerator is a strong option to consider.
