News Product Management Certification: what you need to know about the program

On Wednesday, April 10, the News Product Alliance hosted a Zoom Info Session on the News Product Management Certification (NPMC), the program we developed in partnership with the Craig Newmark Graduate School of Journalism at CUNY.

Feli Carrique, the executive director of the News Product Alliance, and Kyle Plantz, the Senior Program Manager at CUNY, provided a comprehensive overview of the program, curriculum, and application process. Briar Cromartie, NPMC instructor for the first cohort for the ‘Ensuring revenue sustainability with a clear monetization strategy’ class, joined the conversation to share more about what you will learn in the program.
