Not just code base, but that's a big part.
But also processes -- a big one if you're in a large org -- subject matter, even simple stuff like getting a laptop setup and getting AD groups set up correctly for all roles and accesses can take a long time. I've been at multiple multinationals/F500s and it often took 3 months just to get me into things (part of that also being we don't give sudo/admin to the newly hired).
I've known PMs from aviation work that aren't deeply technical but know TONS about how to drive projects in that sector, who to contact, what's a priority, and that's not something you can easily put into a udemy course the way you can SAP or NodeJS.
