100% agree. The key here is that they are targeting people who already have a CS undergrad degree and thus are likely already employed or going to be employed in high-paying jobs with good future prospects. I'm not really seeing the ROI on this.

Well it formalizes the product manager role.. so like an MBA? Here you also get connections across the software industry. You probably learn some skills as well. Longer term it might help push you further up the food chain.
