L. Dimitrov, Specialist, Products and Services (Devices & SIM Cards) at VIVACOM
“The training program at ITCE helped me look at my work at Vivacom in a new way and better understand the role of the Product Manager. For me this was an opportunity that not only thought me a lot of new concepts and practices, but it was also a great awareness that I am moving in the right direction. ITCE impressed us with their adaptability to the needs of the group – including and discussing topics that were not initially in the program but were of interest to our team of Product Managers.”
M. Cholakova, Product Expert, Products & Services VIVACOM
“ITCE is a great company and creates an environment where you can learn a lot. The instructors were team of professionals and training center atmosphere is very friendly. We needed a training program that covers the needs for creating successful digital products, while tackling specific needs and pain-points from the Telco industry. ITCE delivered a great combination of theory, industry-specific examples and practical exercises and my overall opinion is that the training program was exceptionally beneficial.“
Frequently Asked Questions
Can the training be customized?
Yes, absolutely! The Digital Product Management training can also be custom tailored to the needs of specific organization and delivered to a closed group of Product Managers or product management teams.
This could be done through incorporating a real-life company product/case study and through focusing the content and duration of the training around opportunities and pain-points important for the organization.
Who Should Attend?
The course will benefit anyone who is new to product management. However, we also find more experienced attendees get an excellent refresh and broadening of their skills. We typically see a mix of different roles attending – Product Managers, Project Managers and Product Owners as well as those with no experience at all.
Are there any prerequisites from attending the training?
There are no fixed prerequisites for attendance. Still, the training will be more beneficial for you if you plan to or already work in a product-oriented environment.
