# PMhelp - Full Content Index > PMhelp is a free product management education platform offering courses, mentorship matching (PM Buddy), CV reviews, interview prep, blog content, and partnership opportunities for aspiring and current product managers, with a focus on individuals from underrepresented communities. PMhelp helps people break into product management or level up their PM skills through structured learning paths and mentorship connections. --- ## About PMhelp ### Our Mission **What We Do:** PMHelp supports people from underrepresented backgrounds to break into product management and tech through practical learning and real support. We run hands-on workshops, mentorship, CV and interview reviews, webinars, internships and community-led learning. We focus on building real skills, real confidence, and proof of work so people are not just learning theory but are actually ready for opportunities. **Why We Exist:** We exist because talent is everywhere but access and confidence are not. Too many capable people are locked out of tech not because they lack ability, but because they lack guidance, exposure, and belief. PMHelp exists to close that gap. We help people believe they belong, own their potential, and step into tech careers with confidence and clarity. ### Our Vision Our vision is to support 500,000 aspiring product managers, with a strong focus on underrepresented communities, by providing free, accessible learning, mentorship, and real-world guidance that removes barriers to entry and opens doors to careers in product management across the globe. ### Core Values - **Accessibility:** Everyone should have free access to the knowledge and tools needed to pursue a career in product management, regardless of their background or financial situation. - **Community:** We foster a supportive and inclusive environment where aspiring product managers can learn, grow, and connect with peers and experts. - **Empowerment:** We are dedicated to empowering individuals with the skills, confidence, and resources they need to break into and excel in the field of product management. - **Inclusion:** We believe that talent is equally distributed, and opportunity should not be limited to a select advantaged few. We are committed to creating opportunities for aspiring product managers from all backgrounds. - **Innovation:** We embrace new ideas and continuously evolve our offerings to ensure that our community stays ahead in the ever-changing world of product management. - **Sustainability:** We are committed to equipping future product managers with the green skills needed to drive sustainable product development and contribute to the global economy. ### Founders - **Obiageli Okafor** - Senior Product Manager (Telecoms Solutions) - **Emeka Mgbenu** - Senior Product Manager (Crypto Compliance and Anti Fraud Solution) Our founding team brings over a decade of combined expertise from leading technology companies including Gradwell, Sumsub, Revolut, and Binance, where we've developed products serving millions of users worldwide. ### SDG Goals PMhelp is passionate about raising the bar when it comes to education outside of the classroom, creating opportunities for work and growth, and levelling the playing field in the workforce.

You help us directly fund programs that remove invisible barriers and empower underrepresented individuals to thrive as innovators and changemakers in tech. ### The Challenge Product management is one of the fastest growing roles in tech, but access to it is still deeply unequal. Every year, thousands of capable people want to break into product. They study, self-learn, take courses, and apply anyway. Yet many never make it past the first stage. Not because they lack talent, but because the system rewards proximity, not potential. **Invisible Barriers, Real Consequences:** - **Access is uneven:** Most product roles are filled through networks, referrals, and insider knowledge. If you do not know where to start, who to ask, or how the industry really works, you are already behind. - **Experience paradox:** Entry-level roles ask for experience, but experience is locked behind opportunities people cannot access without help, guidance, or sponsorship. - **Paywalls around learning:** Bootcamps, courses, and coaching are often expensive, making high-quality support inaccessible to people from underrepresented or lower-income backgrounds. - **Confidence erosion:** Repeated rejection, silence from applications, and unclear feedback slowly convince talented people they do not belong in product at all. PMHelp exists to break this cycle. ### Our Impact - **52,000+** learners reached across our social and learning platforms - **70+ countries** reached worldwide, with 39% of members from underrepresented backgrounds - **350+** hours of free mentorship and teaching delivered - **100%** free access supported by a 100% volunteer-led team ### Donation FAQs **What is PMHelp?** PMHelp is a community-led, non-profit platform helping underrepresented people break into and grow in product management.
