26F Accessibility Tester Looking to Transition into Product – No MBA, What Are My Options?

Hi everyone,

I’m a 26-year-old woman from India, currently working as an accessibility tester, and I’m really interested in transitioning into a product roles.

The catch: an MBA isn’t an option for me right now due to time and financial constraints.

I’d love to hear from people who made a similar transition or work in product:

1. What skills should I focus on building?
2. Are there certifications or courses you’d recommend?
3. How can I leverage my current experience in accessibility testing during the transition?

Thanks in advance for any advice or guidance you can offer!
