If you’d like to learn more, you’re invited to our online info session for Bertelsmann employees on September 21, 2021 at 4 p.m. CET.

A global analysis of the skills most needed in the Group revealed that the skillset surrounding product management, especially for cloud, data and AI solutions, is of crucial importance for Bertelsmann businesses across all divisions. In particular, these skills are needed to drive the digital transformation and prepare for digital growth in the years ahead. Bertelsmann University aims to create learning solutions that effectively fill these critical skills gaps at Bertelsmann.

So what does the Bertelsmann Product Management Learning Set offer?

The Learning Set comprises a suite of diverse and flexible online learning elements designed to help Product Development & Digital Marketing teams achieve their goals in a data-driven environment. The content of the Learning Set is linked to your individual professional situation and previous experience, which makes it ideal for various upskilling or reskilling scenarios.

The Bertelsmann Product Management Learning Set focuses on the business- and customer-oriented aspects of product management, while the Bertelsmann Tech Curricula have a stronger focus on the technical side of the tech-to-business spectrum.
