Do you have any recommended online courses for those interested in breaking into product management (e.g. LinkedIn Learning PM learning path, Udemy, etc.)

I personally have been teaching at The Product School and have seen benefits/value from those coming out of the course. It is really going to come down to your own learning style however. You could also very much find free reading materials if you are unable to invest in taking courses at the moment. You can go on youtube and simply search 'product management' and consuming videos and talks. You could go on twitter and read through the numerous shared docs there. It really comes down to whether you personally need structure or can create your own structure.
