CHICAGO - s4story -- As families shop for notebooks and school supplies, a growing number of adults are using the back-to-school moment to invest in their own careers. Mentor Agile today is launching a fall enrollment push for its cohort-based and self-paced Product Owner/Product Manager pathways targeted at career changers and upskillers who want practical, job-ready Agile product skills and mentorship this season.

"Back-to-school isn't just for kids," said Akberl Khan, CEO of Mentor Agile. "For many adults, September marks a fresh start and a chance to gain the skills employers are hiring for now. Our programs are designed to turn motivated beginners into confident product professionals through practical modules, mentor guidance and real project work."

Bootcamp-style, skills-focused programs continue to expand as a practical route into tech and product roles, with recent market reviews finding demand for short, intensive reskilling programs remains robust. These programs appeal to adults seeking speed-to-employability and applied learning.

What Mentor Agile is offering this fall

• 12-week Product Owner & Product Manager pathways blending self-paced modules, weekly live mentor sessions and real-world capstone projects designed for beginners and career switchers.
  
  
• Mentor-led cohorts and one-on-one guidance from industry practitioners to bridge theory and practice (resume and interview prep included).
  
  
• Flexible enrollment options self-paced learning for busy adults and scheduled cohorts for those who want peer momentum and live feedback.

Student success & outcomes

Mentor Agile's curriculum emphasizes applied skills that hiring managers look for user-story writing, backlog prioritization, product discovery, metrics for outcomes (OKRs), and stakeholder communication. The program pairs these skills with a capstone portfolio that graduates can present during interview processes.
