Well, thank you for having me. And my name is Carlos on. Then the founder and CEO of Prague School. I started proud school in the summer of 2014. So almost seven years ago on the reason why is because this is I wanted to create a solution to my own problem. Like maybe other entrepreneurs, we want to focus on something that it's really reaching for us on. In that case, I come from a engineering background. I started computer science in Spain. That's where I'm from. And I soon realized that I didn't want to spend the rest of my life calling. The problem is that nobody really gave me any other options. I felt like I signed up for a specific degree and I was supposed to continue on that path since forever, you know, I would work a software engineer that may be a senior engineer, that on dso on, uh, I love Angie. I love I love coding, but most importantly, I love technology, and I love connecting technology to business and sold in real problems. So I was kind of lost on by my alternative back in the day was to go to business school on. That's what I did. I came to the University of California in Berkeley. I started starting business. Andi. I had to break breakthroughs. First of all, there were so many other engineers like myself that came from a technical background and wanted to think business, which was very refreshing for me to know that this is this is a mainstream opportunity on then I also met other business people that would come from other backgrounds, such as consulting, finance, marketing and so on. They also wanted to get their hands dirty. They wanted action and be closer to building things in tech or other industries. They were feeling very intimidated because they have a traditional engineering degree. They know how to call or is it eso? Here we are two different groups of people trying to tackle the same problem from different angles. And the reality is business. School wasn't really optimized for that. We didn't have a single class on product management in two in a two year food and problem. But forget about product. We have ah detail, marketing, data, analytics, UX design or any other legal skills that a lot of us use my daily basis. So that was kind of the inspiration behind creating a product school, which is a hybrid writing between an engineering on a business school that gets the best out of both words and can help people break into product management in a much more efficient way. I'm a big believer in life. Long learning, never understood why we're supposed to study full time until our mid twenties and then from there own. We're supposed to work full time until we die. Well, I think you can get it all on. I believe in the concept off learning on the side. That's just like what we do. All of our programs are delivered live online so people can continue with other studies with their life with their work, whatever they want. But they can do this. And that also helps us attractive, very best instructors, because we believe that the best teachers are actually practitioners. So people who teach approach school keep their food and jobs working at top tech companies such as Google, Facebook, Netflix or Airbnb

yes. So we did. Product management on. That's our folks. Andi. All of our trainings are delivered live online, which I believe it's very important because it's almost as replicating real life you can. I believe you can just learn by reading a book or what's in a movie. You also have to get feedback, build something illiterate on, and that was very important to me. We made a few key decisions when we started the company. One. Waas focus on product I know there are many other opportunities out there. We could have picked code in design data, whatever, but we really wanted to be the best in the world that just one thing double down on it. And the second key decision for us was the fact that we wanted that over all of our instructors would be practitioners. It's mandatory for every product school instructor to keep a food and job at top company, and the job is not any type of job. They have to be working in product product leaders. So, for example, the VP of product Netflix, head of product Facebook and others collaborate with us on. Then the third key decision, waas to make sure that this was flexible. We didn't want to make yet another full time program on make People decide between life will work. We wanted to make this on the site so people can continue with their careers. Are not not have toe kind of sacrifice because at the end of day, especially in product management, where they're not that many entry level opportunities, you're in much stronger position If you already have a job or if you are active, I just don't think that it's a good idea to, you know, completely stopped to focus on learning. And then, you know, the opportunity cost is very big on. We've worked with so many students that did a four time N b A. They came back to us and you know what? I realized I want to be a product manager and a great happy to help, but I wish I had met you two or three years ago.

I think that's a great question because we try to do the opposite off extra original business school. We tried to position products product school as a as an alternative to an MBA on, and part of it is because our curriculum is constantly being updated. So we make too big revamps every year and then some constant iterations throughout the entire year. We have a team off instructional designers that collaborates with a team off subject matter experts. So some of the people who actually teach our problems there also participating on the on the on the back office building content thing is what we're teaching. Standing constantly, we're literally teaching how to build the future, how to build the detail, products that all of us using a daily basis on a lot of those tools, methodologies are constantly changing, too. So that's another advantage of just focusing on one thing that you can double down on it and not get distracted with so many other things that are going to take up time, and I'm not going to make you be pretty much the best of anything
