NextLeap

I joined this curriculum in April 2024, at a time when I really wanted to get into product management but wasn’t quite sure where to start. Since I was already working, I made sure the course fit around my schedule and I’m so glad I did.

The curriculum was practical, well-structured, and gave me a clear understanding of what product management truly involves. I learned how to think more strategically, connect product features to real business outcomes, and approach problems with a product mindset. A big shoutout to the mentors as well, their support and feedback really helped me grow and made a huge difference in how I approached the learning. Overall, it’s been an incredibly rewarding experience. Read less

Joining the NextLeap Product Management cohort was one of the most impactful decisions I’ve made in my career journey. The program offers a highly structured and hands-on approach to breaking into product management.What stood out the most was the mentor-led guidance—learning directly from experienced PMs at top tech companies who shared real-world frameworks, feedback, and career advice. The live sessions, case studies, and product thinking assignments were incredibly practical and mimicked actual PM scenarios, which helped me build both confidence and a strong portfolio.The community aspect was equally valuable. I got to interact with peers from diverse domains, receive feedback on my work, and even collaborate on mock interviews and product challenges. The team at NextLeap is genuinely invested in your success, providing resume reviews, mock interviews, and placement support as you approach the job market.I'd highly recommend the program to anyone serious about transitioning into product management or sharpening their PM skillset.

Joining the NextLeap program honestly changed the game for me.
The way it’s structured is super practical - it starts with the basics and gradually builds up to advanced topics, so it works great whether you're just starting out or trying to upskill.



What really stood out for me was the mentorship. I got to learn from folks who actually work in the industry, and they were genuinely helpful. 
They didn’t just teach - they gave personal feedback, cleared doubts quickly, and were there throughout the journey. From learning tools like SQL, Excel, Python, and dashboarding to actually working on real-world projects, it felt like I was constantly moving forward.



More than just the learning part, NextLeap really helped with placements too. The mock interviews, resume feedback, and portfolio support made a big difference. It gave me the confidence I needed to crack interviews and grab good opportunities.

Big shoutout to - (Harshit,Yunus,Ankush,Sahil) They are amazing Read less

If you’re serious about product management, this is 100% worth it. The competitive environment does half the work for you, pushing you to grow fast. The assignments are super fun and hands-on—you’ll actually enjoy doing them.

And Arindam? A one-man army. His mentorship feels like having 100 wishes granted at once.

Just go for it, peeps. You won’t regret it!

Thank me later! XD Read less

NextLeap provided a structured and engaging learning experience. The interactive sessions, hands-on assignments, and mentorship were invaluable in helping me gain practical skills. The peer-learning environment and networking opportunities were a big plus. I’d highly recommend it to anyone looking to upskill in a collaborative setting. Read less

In short it's worth it. I was already having a product experience so I thought it would not be worth it but after I joined, the classes of Arindam was very insightful especially the case hours in which he shared his personal insights from experience in Flipkart as director of PM. Other instructors were not that good but okish. Max students are who wants to transition to PM hence the hiring partners were also hiring for interns, and APM mostly. Another great thing was peers, you make friends and can do mock interviews together which improves interview skills. Also they are beta testing ai one too. Mentor support was not that much helpful for me personally I don't know about others. Also you need to clear graduation project and mentor product interview to sit for placements. At last I would say the investment was worth it, i learnt how to do 1st principle thinking to build products. Read less

I was enrolled in Product Design Fellowship last year. What I really liked about the whole program was industry aligned course. The instructors were practicing Design & Product professionals and the mentors were available every week to solve our issues and help us build our portfolio showcases. The mentor I was assigned to also helped us in understanding the course milestone evaluations and also gave us an Idea of the product certification assessment. If you are looking to learn and ready to put in hours for this course then it will be a rewarding experience in the longer run.  Read less

The experience is quite subjective—it really depends on where you are professionally and what you're looking for. Personally, I wanted to build a solid portfolio, and NextLeap does a great job at that. Their instructors stand out compared to the industry, ensuring you develop strong product sense and technical skills. At the end of the day, it’s all about learning—if you have that mindset, this program is a no-brainer. Read less

The comprehensive curriculum along with the weekly assignments made it very easy to understand the course. The cherry on the top is the community which is incredibly supportive, collaborative, and engaging. 

The instructors are seasoned product managers and subject matter experts, which helped boost the practicality of the course. The course is very hands on, where each weekly assignment is inspired from a real world product management challenge. 

From the basics of design thinking to conducting user research and creating high fidelity prototypes, this course ensures the students inculcate first principle thinking to solve problems.  Read less

The NextLeap PM Bootcamp has been a game-changer!

A huge shoutout to @Meha for her constant support, motivation, and guidance.

Nextleap has been the most important part of my journey in Product Management. The best part about nextleap, apart from a great instructor like Arindam, is the structure with which the course is designed , as it covers everything about PM in a correct order. Also, bagging a product role as a fresher was a challenging task for me and I had my own doubts about it, but nextleap assured that it is possible and today my dream has become a reality because of them. Thank you! Read less

I wasn’t sure what career path to pick and then I stumbled upon the NextLeap Fellowship. The live sessions were extremely insightful and even the online material was very well curated. The entire fellowship was very engaging despite multiple cohorts running simultaneously. All the industry best mentors took the live sessions and were all very approachable and extremely supportive. It didn’t just end with the graduation project. I reached out to my mentor and Arindam himself multiple times when I was struggling with my initial days of my first PM job and I was actually surprised to get replies from him. He’s always got your back. I always had a very skeptical view about ed-techs but the experience at NextLeap completely changed my mind. There’s no over the top promises, and they’re very accountable for the promises made and it’s not transactional at all. Everyone is always there to help you. 
Anybody who wants to jump into Product Management but not sure of what Product Management, this is the go to course. Of course, for a very very affordable price. All the other courses out there are very misleading - I myself went through a bad experience. I think NextLeap’s PM fellowship is the best one out there. 

Before I forget, my current job is through NextLeap. And I got this placement support post many months of my cohort ending. They extended the services due to COVID. The whole placement process was so smoothly handled. I am extremely grateful to Meha, the placement coordinator who always responded, didn’t leave me hanging. 
Overall, extremely extremely grateful to NextLeap for shaping my career.  Read less

 NextLeap gave me the opportunity to land my first product role and provided excellent mentorship throughout the process. I'm incredibly grateful for the foundation they laid for my career. If you're looking to break into product management, I wholeheartedly recommend NextLeap.  Read less

I joined this fellowship to complement my PG program and get more real-world exposure to product management. The first thing that I found interesting was the mentor circle and the groups that used to brainstorm on different product cases. So many viewpoints to solve the cases, thanks to my mentor Himanshu for engaging sessions. The way the program is structured makes learning fun and, at the same time instills some discipline. I recommend not to skip the week more than once and stay on track. The quality of the instructors, their humbleness, and hands-on sessions have given me so much confidence that I still find it useful when doing my product work. Thanks to Arindam for regular sessions on interview preparation, resume building and career tips. I found my product job through NextLeap and it was worth the wait. A family-like feel and a lot of gratitude towards NextLeap team.
