What people who took a course are saying

This class helped me get caught up on the latest software tools and techniques for building and deploying MCP servers, ChatGPT apps, Claude connectors, etc. It's very practical. As these things evolve, I might even take this class again!

I loved the course and the subjectivity with which Emmanuel teaches this course. Loved the pace and depth.

Emmanuel is an excellent professional and a genuinely great person to learn from. He was patient in answering every question, which made the course truly interactive and hands-on. The way he responded to students' questions showed deep expertise - there was no topic where he could not provide a thoughtful and valid answer. The course was well prepared, and the amount of material we received before and during the sessions gave us enough reading to last for days. I would highly recommend this course to anyone looking to deepen their understanding of API management.

All that Open API knowledge kicked in even further on Demo Day. It was great seeing how the business thinking and technical deep dives connected while looking at public APIs. Great hands on stuff and always keeping an eye to what's currently out there (MCP, AI). Looking forward to accessing all the knowledge Emmanuel offers.

Emmanuel’s “Build & Ship Agent Skills for Your Product” is a fantastic practical insightful and comprehensive course. It’s perfect for product managers looking to understand master and leverage skills for AI transformation. I highly recommend it.

You think you don't need it because of years of experience, but guess what we all have gaps. Such a fundamental class and always looking at what's new out there. Sets ground rules we need for next level Mastery of APIs and MCP and now I have full confidence for what's next Thank you Emmanuel for holding my hand and teaching me to walk properly again so I can run later.

Very practical - it was nice to have a guided session on how to do this

The pace and the material was very relevant. I learned a lot and will be looking into more courses from Emmanuel.

Excellent course - and doable in a short time. Give yourself a gift and take part in the next cohort if you can!

I enjoyed this course because it’s a great introduction to APIs for non-technical profiles. It helped me better understand how APIs work, the broader ecosystem they sit in, and most importantly how to approach API projects with a product mindset. As a Product Manager, I now feel more confident engaging with technical teams and framing APIs not just as technical components, but as products that deliver value to users and the business.

This course is great to understand the business and technical aspects of APIs. You also get to be hands-on with APIs which will stay with you long after the course is done! The resources and the content shared throughout the course are highly valuable! Thank you Emmanuel for teaching it so nicely!

I found the API Fundamentals for Product Managers course very useful and well-structured. Emmanuel showed strong expertise and was always available to answer questions and provide helpful clarifications. The course covered all the topics I was expecting, presenting them in a clear and accessible way. It made even more complex concepts easy to follow. Overall, it was a valuable experience, and I’m interested in exploring the topic of APIs further.

This comprehensive course provided a solid foundation in API products, encompassing technical business and strategic considerations for developing and delivering robust API products to developer communities.

Great content, and very knowledgeable instructor. Highly recommend for any product manager building AI-ready products!

Emmanuel is a fantastic, thoughtful, and very knowledge instructor!

As someone without the technical background but more on the business side. I found this class very useful and insightful into the API world. I would say that it is a lot of information in a relatively short period of time and it makes it challenging to absorb all of the information

I learned a great deal in this course. I thought I had the basics, having worked in backend-heavy, integration-rich systems. The granular understanding and broad perspective on APIs both as technologies and value levers offered in the course, make it a worthwhile investment.

I truly enjoyed attending this course and found it very useful. Emmanuel brings in vast industry experience to build a course that caters specifically to PMs who want to engage more deeply with their engineering teams. I highly recommend this course.

Very good overview for API PMs. Especially liked the attention to detail on developer experience and hands on exercises. Emmanuel is highly knowledgeable and willing to answer any questions.

This course helped me fill in the gaps in my knowledge of API product management. I had previously built APIs but didn't have any formal training. Now I have a strong understanding of the major topics, debates, and key issues for building APIs. The hands on section on building API prototypes was especially helpful for getting early feedback.

Hi Emmanuel, thank you for delivering an insightful and engaging course. I truly enjoyed the discussions, even though the sessions were held late at night in our time zone and often followed a busy workday. I believe the course is highly valuable for Product Managers. While some sections can become quite technical, which may be challenging for PMs without a strong technical background. I appreciated how you created an inclusive environment that encouraged participation from everyone, regardless of their level of technical expertise. Overall, it was a worthwhile and enriching experience.

Hi Emmanuel, Thank you for the course, I found it genuinely insightful and I’m really glad I had the opportunity to be part of it. I especially appreciated how you simplified complex concepts using practical, everyday examples; it made the content far more accessible. I also valued the discussions you encouraged within the group, as learning from others added a lot of richness to the experience. As a non‑technical person, I did find some of the more deeply technical sessions challenging to follow. It may be helpful in future to assess the technical level of attendees beforehand and offer either differentiated streams or a lighter version of the more technical components for those who aren’t hands‑on builders. While I don’t personally build APIs, I do manage a team that does, so applying homework that requires technical development isn’t always feasible for my role. A version of the assignments tailored to leaders or non‑technical stakeholders might help ensure full participation. Thank you again for the effort and thought you put into the programme - it was truly valuable. Regards, Makhosi

Absolutely Insightful, very detailed and informative, professionally facilitated to provide comprehensive knowledge and skills to provide strategic and operational guidance as an API Product Manager

Emmanuel is super knowledgeable on all things APIs. He also is innovative, thinking about MCP and how to leverage AI first workflows to build great APIs. Finally he cares about his learners. He met me for a pre-course zoom, stayed after class to chat extra with me when I had questions, and had a 100% answer completion rate during the class. I highly recommend taking a class with Emmanuel if you have the opportunity!

Loved the course and the insights! It was especially valuable to dive deeper into AI agents, MCP and building your own API using AI tools.

This was a deeply informative experience learning about how APIs are done right!

Emmanuel has designed a brilliant learning path that takes you step by step, in a way that's both accessible and deeply technical, through the foundations of building a world-class API. He is truly a master of the API craft. Having spent years commercializing partner APIs and overseeing technical products with APIs and SDKs, I still had a ton to learn from Emmanuel. That says a lot about the depth and quality of this course. What makes it stand out is its focus on productizing APIs. It equips API Product Leaders not just to drive technical development, but to effectively commercialize and scale their APIs, treating them 100% as products through continuous discovery and delivery. I'd recommend this to anyone who already has basic knowledge and experience working with APIs but wants to structure that knowledge and take their practice to the next level. A few highlights: the course covers strong technical foundations and best practices, walks you through prototyping an API to test it with real users, and shows you how to launch a developer-friendly API that's built to scale.

As a Technical Product Owner with nearly 10 years experience in working with APIs, I was amazed with how much I learned with this course. It was great to solidify my existing knowledge with the foundational concepts of API product management. Highly recommend this course

I enjoyed the format of this course and the instructors passion for the topic. I also liked the emphasis on learning both the technical foundations and problem your API aims to solve to deliver the necessary business value. I learned something knew during each lesson that I am currently applying at my job.

Found the API fundamentals course very good to understand APIs as stand-alone products and which aspects differentiate good from bad APIs.

Emmanuel was extremely knowledgeable and approachable throughout the course. What really made this course stand out was the hands-on approach - building APIs together during the sessions was fantastic and really helped drive home the concepts. The practical, applied learning style transformed complex API product management principles into tangible skills I can use immediately. I highly recommend this course for any PM looking to deepen their API expertise.

Always great to learn from someone who so knowledgable about their craft.

Loved the hands on approach to learning and exposure to various tools to fully automate API life cycle and extending it to create MCP tools. Emanuel is a highly skilled instructor and i am amazed how well informed he is about all new stuff in the industry. Learn from an expert and value the acquaintance with him. Highly recommend the course if you want to set yourself for the next wave of innovation through APIs in the AI first world!

A comprehensive look at all aspects of the API lifecycle. A well-structured course with a great mix of theory and practical examples, plus a huge amount of take-home resources. Highly recommended for anyone looking at API design and management.

Very good course, the trainer was highly experienced and knowledgable, and I am taking away valuable new practices and ways of working with APIs.

This course is highly practical and engaging! Emmanuel provides abundant information and clearly explains the entire API development process. The standout moment was how Emmanuel led us through designing an API and utilising popular tools, including AI, for creation and validation. The curriculum is thorough and insightful, exceeding my expectations. Emmanuel's engaging style kept me involved, and I never felt overwhelmed. I strongly recommend this course to anyone eager to enhance their knowledge of building AI-ready APIs.

I just completed the API Product Management Mastery course. It was the right mix of hands-on work and practical frameworks. I built a simple API, created a working dashboard, and tested it using modern tools. I also evaluated API developer portals like GitHub, Trello, Radar, Heygen, and OpenAI. The assignments gave me real skills I can use right away, not just theory. I recommend this course to anyone looking to sharpen their API product toolkit.

Emmanuel is a very supportive teacher who is high on empathy. He gets into the students shoes and tailors his lessons by breaking down complex concepts into simple to understand, real world, hands-on examples. I enjoyed prototyping APIs for problems I am solving at work. I recommend this course and Emmanuel as the side kick in every API product manager's career journey.

Really liked the course. It helps you to see from different lens

Rich and comprehensive curriculum covering everything you need to know about the science and art of API product management! Well presented and taught by Emmanuel! I highly recommend this course for anyone looking to deepen their knowledge of product management for APIs.

Very practical and interactive course! A lot of information, Emmanuele. It is great to explain end-to-end API development from a PM perspective to you. It is also great to see the early adoption of LLM in this sector.

Emmanuel is the best. Highlight of this Mastery course was the excellent way Emmanuel took us through designing an API and using popular tools including AI for creating and verifying the generated API A must for anyone curious to know everything about APIs

This course is incredibly practical! Emmanuel brings deep API expertise to life through real-world examples. His teaching style makes complex API concepts accessible while still covering everything PMs need to succeed in this space.

Emmanuel does an excellent job of blending core fundamentals and emerging opportunities with his wealth of experience. I learned more than I originally had intended, and look forward to each class session.

Excellent course with a very knowledgeable instructor. Emmanuel managed to break down the API principles for product development into simple terms that were easy to understand. We had some engaging conversations in class which was also beneficial.

Emmanuel runs this training in a professional way. Perhaps the best training I have seen in Maven. Emmanuel truly brings his expertise to the training and makes it easy to absorb and understand. API domain has a lot of nuances and quirks. Maybe the only addition I would ask for is the newer advances that are being made in API in the API economy plus examples
