APM Canada

Associate Product Management training programs were popularized in Silicon Valley in the early 2000s. Outside of these huge firms resources are often too tight to effectively structure APM programs to fully empower and train entrants to the product role. In 2017 a group of product-focused organizations in Toronto got together to fix this problem. We are now in our fourth cohort of APM Canada : a collective of product leaders cross-training APMs in which 20 companies have added 40 new entry level PMs to the Canadian ecosystem. The 6-month APM program runs to augment vocational placements with in depth training sessions and create an incredible network to prepare APM’s to be able to handle any challenge the product world can throw at them.
