Co.Lab offers online hands-on learning by doing programs to prepare career switchers for success in the tech industry. We provide all our learners with real-world experience through our Product Management Ideation Sprint and our cross-functional Co.Lab Bootcamp.
Since 2020, we’ve graduated over 650 learners from 45 different countries who have gone on to work at companies like Apple, Google, Amazon, Microsoft and many more fast-growing startups.
We’re super excited to have you at Co.Lab as a mentor! By offering up your time, you’ll be inspiring, teaching, and guiding aspiring techies to successfully break into (and succeed within) the tech industry.
Hope you’re excited to get started and make a huge impact. ✨
There are two different types of mentorship opportunities with Co.Lab:
Total expected time: approx. 8 hours total
The Sprint program is our individual Product Management learning track, where aspiring PMs spend 4-weeks focusing on ideation, research and documentation. The goal at the end of the program is for learners to understand product management fundamentals better while gaining hands-on learning about the product discovery process.
An ideal Sprint Mentor has at least three years of Product Management experience in a tech company with outstanding documentation and communication skills.
The primary goal of the Sprint Mentor is to provide feedback to PMs on their submissions each week through the program and asynchronous feedback on their Spec/PRD document.
