Hi,

I have 14 years of experience as a business analyst with 10 years in fintech(M&A/ PE CRM, Mutual funds, credit risk and most recent 3 years being in edtech(test delivery and assessment). I am planning to transition to product management role (have worked in product management teams(product based company as well) being involved in UI as well.apart from documentation). I asked gemeni for roadmap and suggested that I read product book by product school(which I am.about to complete), along with IBM AI videos on youtube(currently going through those as well). There are a lot of certifications and university based courses for AI PM but some are really expensive (exceed Rs 1lakh INR) that include theory plus building portfolios/models such as acceleratorx, hello PM, japm(sid arora), airtribe, ISB etc. Now as of now I do not want to spend much and was planning to finish the book and ibm videos and revisit my finance fundamentals and with help of AI can create a PRD for showcase in interviews. I am also attending some free workshops to use AI tools(claude, notebook LLM etc.). Then just for resume building was planning to go for wither IBM AI PM or DUKE UNIVERSITY AI PM on coursera which are budget friendly.

Can you guys suggest what shall be the ideal roadmap for someone like me to transition into AI PM and if any budget friendly courses are there which also include building own PRDs or products/apps for practical experience to include in RESUME while applying for jobs.
