Tiffany H.,
Business Analyst to Product Manager
I couldn't believe that I was able to pivot to my dream product manager job in less than 3 months after completing the blueprint. Harsh's blueprint course gave me a safe space to ask any questions and the portfolio was enough to get me to my next job.
Ankur L.,
Software Engineer to Product Manager
The blueprint program is a bomb. I didn't find such value and commitment from the instructor in any other bootcamps that I have attended. Harsh is in it just for the love of product management and is unbelievable at teaching the art of product management

Akash H.,
Project Manager to Product Manager
Harsh gave access to everything I needed to pivot into a technical product manager role. The only thing is that this blueprint requires real work and I had to commit to it fully. But the experience was thrilling. I was able to move to a PM role in less than 3 months itself.
Roger L.,
Data Analyst to Product Manager
I was able to use all my 10 years of work experience and skills as I pivoted to a PM role. This was unique because all the other bootcamps I did were focused on teaching me everything new. Harsh's style was leveraging whatever skills I had and transforming them into a PM tool kit. I loved it.
