DESCRIPTION

I’m excited to serve as an instructor for AIPMM certification prep courses from the 280 Group. This presentation describes why you should consider obtaining an AIPMM certification. The Association of International Product Marketing and Management (AIPMM) is the hub of all things product management. It is where product professionals go for answers. With members in over 65 countries, the AIPMM is the worldwide certifying body of product team professionals. It is the world's largest professional organization of product managers, brand managers, product marketing managers and other product team professionals who are responsible for guiding their organizations, or clients, through a constantly changing business landscape. AIPMM's certification programs are internationally recognized because they allow product professionals to demonstrate their expertise and provide corporate members an assurance that their product management and marketing teams are operating at a high competency level. The 280 Group offers training courses that prepare product management and marketing teams to take the Agile Certified Product Manager (ACPM®), Certified Product Manager (CPM®) and/or the Certified Product Marketing Manager (CPMM®) certification exam(s) from AIPMM. The 280 Group helps companies deliver products that delight their customers and produce massive profits by providing Product Marketing & Product Management Consulting, Contractors, Training, Certifications, Books, Templates and Toolkits. The 280 Group Press offers best-selling product management & product marketing books and a complete and thorough worldwide-standard methodology that includes a seven phase product process with corresponding training, certifications and templates. I have over 15 years of experience building and directing high performance cross-functional product teams and transforming products to wealth for technology-based product-driven companies. I have launched over 30 products and solutions that resulted in over $200M of achieved global sales revenue. I provide services as a consultant, contractor, coach, or trainer to organizations that need to create value-added products that delight customers and effectively market them to create demand. Seating is very limited in all courses from the 280 Group because we keep the class size small to ensure high participant interaction with the instructors. Reserve your space now before the next session sells out. Contact me for information about AIPMM membership benefits, certification courses in your area, or for help creating a product management or innovation process to drive your company's growth. Feel free to favorite this presentation and download this for your reference. I hope to see you again soon. Regards, Hector Del Castillo http://linkd.in/hdelcastillo
