Welcome to our Coursera course on contemporary digital product development! Throughout this course, you'll gain invaluable insights into the inner workings of digital product development. Drawing from the extensive expertise of Digital Product School (DPS), which has guided hundreds of cross-functional teams in creating successful products from inception to delivery, you'll explore methodologies and strategies proven by reality instead of fancy books. This course has been curated in collaboration with Amazon Web Services (AWS).
Our journey begins by examining the foundational principles that have empowered our product teams to find ideas and transform them into tangible, market-ready products within 12 weeks. Additionally, you'll delve into generative AI, understanding its significance, risks, and benefits in the business context. Gain practical experience using Amazon Bedrock and Lex to create innovative AI applications and conversational interfaces. The course also covers the machine learning lifecycle, where you'll master critical aspects such as model sourcing, performance evaluation, and MLOps practices. By the end of this course, you'll have a comprehensive understanding of digital product development and the confidence to apply your skills in real-world scenarios. Join us to unlock the secrets to successful product creation and enhance your expertise in the digital domain!
