A couple of questions/scenarios: 1. Are you looking for something individual? Like a plan or roadmap to follow on your own time. OR are you looking for something group based/interactive/live with classes and stuff on your own schedule? 2. What's your end goal? I know a few PMs personally who have tried to switch to SWE and it's a different path than if you just want to be better at "thinking about code" to be a stronger PM or maybe founder eventually. 2a). Where do you stand on AI? If you want to be a SWE, ignoring AI and focusing on fundamental coding and problem solving expressed through code and product is more important. If you want to be a code-equipped PM I might lean more into using AI tools both to learn and to code.
