UI/UX Design Course for Product Managers

ProdXVerse is a 12-week live UI/UX design course for product managers who want to design, not just brief. You already own the problem and the roadmap; the course adds research technique, interface craft, Figma fluency and design systems, so you can prototype an idea yourself instead of waiting on a designer. The Pro Designer Cohort is Rs.24,999 with EMI from Rs.12,499 a month, and includes over Rs.50,000 of bonuses. Online across India, with offline batches in Bengaluru.

ProdXVerse runs a 12-week live UI/UX design course, taught online from anywhere in India, with offline batches in Bengaluru. Live sessions, weekly individual feedback on your own work, and portfolio case studies at the end that a hiring team will actually read. The Pro Designer Cohort is Rs.24,999, or Rs.12,499 a month over two months.

What does the course cover?

Four phases across 12 weeks covering user research, UI fundamentals, Figma, design systems, prototyping and AI-assisted workflows, with the early weeks pitched at what product managers already know rather than repeating it. Every phase ends in portfolio work rather than a throwaway exercise, so the course output is the job application.

PhaseWhat it coversWhat you produce
1. FoundationsDesign thinking, Figma, auto-layout, type and colourYour first interface, critiqued
2. Research and strategyUser interviews, usability testing, synthesis, JTBDA research-backed problem definition
3. Design executionDesign systems, prototyping, interaction designA working prototype and component library
4. Launch and landCase-study writing, resume, portfolio, interview prepThree portfolio case studies

What is included in the UI/UX design course fee?

The same package product managers get as everyone else: all 12 weeks of live sessions, weekly individual review of your own work, a dedicated mentor, guest sessions, the Designathon sprint, placement assistance, a certificate, and bonuses listed at over Rs.50,000.

Worth being blunt about that last line, because most course pages are not. There is no upsell after you join. No paid "advanced module" that turns out to hold the useful part. What you are reading is the whole thing.

Inside the cohort, every week:

What you getWhat it actually means
Live group sessionsTaught live for all 12 weeks, never a recorded playlist. You can interrupt and ask.
Assignment reviewYour work, looked at individually and told what is wrong with it. This is the part you are really paying for.
Dedicated group mentorOne person who knows your work and your name, not a rotating support queue.
Industry guest sessionsDesigners currently doing the job, talking about what it is currently like.
Case study presentationYou present your work and defend it, which is exactly what an interview asks of you.
Recorded deep divesEvery session recorded, so a meeting that overruns does not cost you the class.
AI toolkit accessThe prompt and workflow library, kept current rather than frozen at launch.
Placement assistanceResume review, mock interviews, and introductions into the hiring network.
Certificate of completionIssued at the end. Useful on LinkedIn, not a substitute for the portfolio.

And the bonuses, free with both tracks:

BonusWhat it isListed value
HTML BootcampLive sessions turning your Figma files into responsive HTML and CSSRs.8,000
AI Toolkit for DesignersA maintained library of prompts, workflows and integrations, research synthesis onwardRs.8,000
Freelance Starter KitContracts, proposals, invoices and the Upwork playbook for your first three clientsRs.7,000
Personal Portfolio SiteYour portfolio built in code or no-code and put live on a real domainRs.6,000
Guest Expert SessionsLive sessions with design leaders from NTT Data, Motad, Flatworld Solutions and funded startupsRs.6,000

LinkedIn Posting Kit30 post templates so you are building a name while you are still learningRs.5,000
ATS Resume WorkshopA resume that gets past the tracking software and in front of a humanRs.4,000

That column adds up to more than Rs.50,000 on its own. The point is not the arithmetic. It is that the HTML bootcamp, the freelance kit and the portfolio site are the three things people go hunting for about six months after a course ends, and you walk out with all three already done.

How much does the UI/UX design course cost?

There is no separate rate for product managers. The Pro Designer Cohort is Rs.24,999, reduced from Rs.59,999, or Rs.12,499 a month over two months. The 1-on-1 Elite Mentorship track is Rs.49,999, reduced from Rs.74,999, at Rs.16,666 across three months.

TrackFeeEMIWho it suits
Pro Designer CohortRs.24,999 Rs.59,999Rs.12,499/month, 2 monthsMost people. Live group sessions, weekly feedback, full placement assistance.
1-on-1 Elite MentorshipRs.49,999 Rs.74,999Rs.16,666/month, 3 monthsEverything in the cohort, plus private weekly 1:1s, direct referrals to hiring partners and 6 months of support after it ends.

The Elite track is not a better version of the course. It is the same course with a mentor who is only looking at your work. Most people do not need that. If you are switching careers late, or you have one shot at this and no room for a wrong turn, it is the one to take.

Before you compare it to something cheaper, two things. A recorded course costs less because nobody ever looks at your work, and feedback is the entire thing you are buying. And a course promising a guaranteed job is either charging you for that promise somewhere in the fee, or is not being straight with you.

On refunds, so you are not hunting for it: you can request one within 48 hours of paying in full. After that the materials, resources and community access have already been handed over and cannot be taken back, so the window closes.

Do you need a design degree or prior experience?

No. product managers are one of the most common backgrounds in the room, and none of them arrived with a design degree. The cohort starts from zero. What it does assume is that you will do the work weekly, because every review is individual.

The people who struggle are not the ones without a degree. They are the ones who treat it like a video course: watching the session, skipping the project, and arriving at week ten with nothing to show.

How many hours a week does the course take?

Around 6 to 8 hours a week across 12 weeks. Most product managers do it without leaving their job, which is the point of the format. Every session is recorded, so a sprint that overruns or a late meeting does not cost you the week.

Roughly one weekday evening plus part of a weekend. If you cannot protect that reliably, wait for a cohort where you can.

Is the UI/UX design course online, or is there an offline batch?

Online and live for most product managers, with offline batches running in Bengaluru for anyone who can get there. Same syllabus, same mentors, same weekly reviews, same bonuses. Online is what people keeping a full-time job almost always choose.

Online is what most people take, because it fits around a job. The Bengaluru batch exists for the people who know they only finish things when someone is watching them do it. Both run the full 12 weeks and neither is the cut-down one.

Is a live cohort better than learning design on your own?

It depends on whether you need feedback. product managers are usually good at self-teaching tools, so that part is not the problem. The part free material cannot do is tell you your work is not good enough yet, and explain exactly why.

Who teaches the ProdXVerse UI/UX design course?

Ishtiaq Shaheer, founder of Desisle, a Bengaluru design and development studio with clients across the US, UK and UAE. He is not a full-time trainer, which matters for product managers: the critique is about whether work would survive a client, not whether it matches a rubric.

Worth being specific here, because "industry expert mentors" appears on every course page in India and means nothing at all. Desisle is a working studio. It has clients, deadlines, scope arguments and products in the wild. The critique your case study gets is the critique that work would get before it went to a client, which is a different and considerably less comfortable thing than a rubric.

Top-performing participants are considered for internship projects at Desisle and partner agencies. That is a real pipeline, not a placement guarantee, and the honest version is worth stating: a small number of people each cohort, chosen on the work.

Guest sessions bring in design leaders from NTT Data, Motad, Flatworld Solutions and funded startups, so you are not listening to one person’s view of the industry for twelve straight weeks.

What can you realistically do after 12 weeks?

You finish with portfolio case studies that read as the work of someone who has done this before, a certificate, resume review, mock interviews and introductions into the hiring network. Jobs are not guaranteed, and how quickly product managers convert varies with how actively they apply.

No honest course promises a job. What this one produces is the evidence a hiring team asks for: work showing a real problem, a real process, and a decision you can defend under questioning.

Who should not join this cohort?

Any of the product managers looking for a certificate rather than a portfolio, anyone who cannot protect 6 to 8 hours a week, and anyone expecting a guaranteed placement. Reviews are individual, which only works when everyone in the room is actually building.

Saying that out loud costs us applications. That is the point. A cohort where half the room has not done the work is a worse cohort for the half that has.

Can product managers become UI/UX designers?

Yes, and it changes what you can do unaided. A PM who can prototype tests an idea in an afternoon instead of waiting for design capacity. The course adds research technique, interface craft, Figma fluency and design systems.

What transfers is problem framing, roadmap thinking and stakeholder fluency. What has to be built from scratch is the research method, the visual craft and the systems thinking specific to interface work. The course is sequenced on that assumption rather than starting everyone from zero on everything.

Frequently asked questions

Should a product manager learn UI/UX design?

It changes what you can do unaided. A PM who can prototype tests an idea in an afternoon instead of waiting for design capacity, and briefs far more precisely. ProdXVerse covers research, interface craft, Figma and design systems over 12 weeks.

Will this help me work better with designers?

Directly. Most PM-designer friction comes from briefs that specify solutions instead of problems, and feedback given in the wrong vocabulary. ProdXVerse teaches you how design decisions are actually made, which changes both the brief and the critique.

Is 12 weeks enough alongside a PM role?

It is designed for it. ProdXVerse runs at roughly 6-8 hours a week, sessions are live and recorded, and the project work is deliberately close to real product problems, so much of it doubles as thinking you would be doing anyway.

Do I need to become a full-time designer afterwards?

No. Many participants stay in product and simply stop being blocked on design. ProdXVerse gives you the craft; whether you use it to switch roles or to become a PM who prototypes is your call, and both outcomes are common.

What does the ProdXVerse UI/UX course cost for Product Managers?

There is no separate price for Product Managers; you join the same cohort as everyone else, at the same fee. The Pro Designer Cohort is Rs.24,999, reduced from Rs.59,999, payable as Rs.12,499 a month across a 2-month EMI. The 1-on-1 Elite Mentorship track is Rs.49,999, reduced from Rs.74,999, at Rs.16,666 a month over 3 months. Both include the bonus bundle the site values at over Rs.50,000, and nothing is sold to you again after you join.

Can Product Managers attend ProdXVerse offline instead of online?

Yes, if you can get to Bengaluru, which is the only city with offline batches. They run alongside the live online cohort and Product Managers join both. Syllabus, weekly individual reviews and bonuses do not change between formats. In practice most Product Managers take the online cohort, because it is the version that fits around a full-time job you are not ready to leave yet.
