There are a lot of great concepts introduced in clear and simple ways, and a lot of inspiring stories and examples that the course draws on throughout. It's a good blend of theory and practice, without leaning too heavily to either side. I took the data-driven PM course.

I rarely write reviews, but GoPractice genuinely deserves one. I bought the data-driven product management simulator a few months ago, and it has been one of the strongest learning experiences I’ve had in recent years. What I appreciate most is that it doesn’t feel like a typical online course. You are not just watching lessons or reading about product management. You make decisions, work with data, see the consequences, and slowly start thinking more like a product person. I work in EdTech and product, so I’ve seen quite a few learning formats. Many courses explain frameworks well, but very few manage to create the feeling of real product work: uncertainty, trade-offs, imperfect data, and the need to make a decision anyway. GoPractice does that extremely well. For me, the biggest value is not only the content itself, but the way the simulator changes how you think. It helps connect metrics, user behavior, growth, retention, and product strategy into one practical picture. Highly recommended for PMs, aspiring PMs, and anyone who wants to build product intuition through practice rather than just theory.

I purchased GoParctice AI bundle (3 courses), luckily sponsored by employer. I picked GoPractice because I had positive impressions after doing their 'Data-Driven PdM' course several years ago.  I liked AI/ML PdM and AI Prototyping ones: both were very robust and well structured, with practical, interesting assignments and real use cases.   Regarding GenAI one it was good, but I felt that it did not add much on top of AI/ML one - hence I guess it is called mini-simulator.  I missed Agentic AI part explaining when / how to set up multi agent architectures, evaluations, orchestration layer and etc. It is quite rapidly evolving field, so I guess it can be good to expand GenAI course with this part in future.  Minor thing on portal UI, but it would be good to see the progress bar reflecting remaining estimated time left to complete tye course to manage expectations.  I liked the courses, happy with the quality!

GoPractice was the saviour for me as a product manager because after first Data driven simulator I got an offer as Middle PM right away. Now I have 4 simulators total and it was totally worth the investment, each and every one of them. It all started with watching YouTube videos of Oleg personally, then reading everything I could find in their blog, then the simulators and their mentors with group calls it was a game changer tbh

Great in depth courses, fantastic examples, great feedback. well built platform!

Felt that I have 2nd job while going through the simulator. All the challenges and tasks and decisions made - I felt I am personally part of it and loved the journey from starting a product untill it finds its product fit.

The "Simulator for Learning Data-Driven Product Management" is an excellent introduction and overview to Product Management, specifically for Product Analytics. Like every course, it has its pros and cons, so let's get started: Pros: 1. The course takes you through the journey of Instachat, a startup set in 2016, by wrapping the entire learning experience in a simulator-based "Learning By Doing". 2. The course teaches you far more than the average "weekend-based" training or just going through the "just another PdM" course. Specifically, I would like to point out that you will need to back up your answers with data, not gut feeling. 3. You get to see a startup from the different stages in its existence, from the initial hype to pivoting. That's what makes you feel like this is an internship and not just a standard course. 4. Your answers matter. Once you provide an answer, you can't take it back, just as you can't unsend an email. That's why getting a good score on the simulator isn't as easy as one might think. 5. The amount of information and topics covered in just one course is immense. Apart from that, you get a lot of additional learning resources and recordings from a specific cohort. 6. You think something's wrong, or you are not sure why that answer makes sense? You can ask a question in the forum and receive a reply within 1-2 working days. 7. While I haven't experienced it yet, the simulator will be more beneficial to come back at some point in the future. For instance, I am not currently doing cohort analysis, but when I have to, I will come back to the course. 8. It's a great "here is something you may not have known" on topics you are already experienced in. Competitor and Market Analysis is something I am already doing. The course just gave me an additional perspective on how to approach it, with some additional websites. Cons: 1. Price - While the material is solid, the price by itself is steep. I am not sure whether I would have paid full price for it if it hadn't been part of my personal development plan. 2. Somewhat Outdated - because the simulator takes place in 2016, which is 10 years ago. The startup is focused primarily on a mobile application, which isn't anything bad - It's just that if you are working in an AI startup, IoT, or Web 3, it might not be entirely relevant to you. The overall information will remain solid regardless, however. 3. Some of the answers to questions can be up to interpretation. While most of them are based on data analysis, some are open to interpretation. It is hard to be completely impartial, but some answers to questions end up being cherry-picked for the situation rather than being actual. 4. The simulator itself was great, but it doesn't fully cover the political side of an organization. While data could have convinced people years ago, I doubt that would work in the context of the current AI boom, where corporations are investing unprecedented amounts of $$$ to integrate AI into their workflow. 5. The course is a twist between business intelligence and product management. If it weren't for the explicit framing, I wouldn't really find a difference between it and the standard BI framing.

Really insightful, hands-on learning and so many aha! moments for me as a product manager - lots of very actionable and useful knowledge and approaches for me to take into my next role. Best online learning experience I had had.
