Course overview

Become a Requirements Master with This Course

UX designers, UX researchers, product owners, and product managers don't just deliver solutions.


At the heart of it all, they solve problems.


They're either solving problems for users, for clients, for colleagues, or for a business for which they work. Problem-solving is at the heart of ALL the work.


Teams also need to communicate the significance of the problem and convince people why it's worth solving. Without doing this, they're simply taking orders and who knows if the solution will actually meet needs in the world. It depends on whether you're solving the right user problems in the first place.


This class teaches you how to solve the right problem, and how to solve the problem correctly.


Take a deep dive in product management and product strategy with this masterclass. The next time someone asks for a solution, you'll be equipped with tools to break it down into user problems, user goals, user need, and more. Through this you will build better things for the world and empower teams to do better work.

1. Problem statements

2. Vision boards

3. Product scope

4. Epics, features, and tasks

5. User stories

Hear some success stories

        The course took me through specific tasks which I now perform on a regular basis in my job today, allowing me to hit the ground running, contribute to the product, and act as my product manager’s right hand. It had a profound impact on my ability to break into tech..roll up your sleeves gain an astonishing level of product development understanding

        This boosted my confidence to navigate uncertainty and helped me understand the importance of aligning the team with the product roadmap. The course turned the theoretical methods I'd read about into practical strategies that I've implemented again and again.  I highly recommend this course to anyone looking to increase their understanding!
