About this program

Innovation, Product and Service Design teaches cooperative teams to build products members actually want, using structured design methods rather than committee intuition. Participants run member research, define problems precisely, prototype and test concepts, model pricing and viability and design the launch and governance approvals a regulated institution requires. Casework spans digital savings, agri platforms and housing finance products. It suits product managers, business development teams and innovation leads.
