Year after year, we are improving our curriculum based on feedback and new rising needs for APMs in Montreal.
The curriculum for each cohort is finalized in partnership with the participating Mentors so that it reflects their expertise and interests.

How are sessions run?
How are sessions run?
The exact format of each session depends on the mentors that are leading it.
That said, each session usually includes the following aspects:
Pre reading in advance
Quick discuss of pre-reads and any questions
Exercises and activities
Debrief on exercise
The thesis of the program is that there are many ways to approach key issues in product management and that the best PMs use judgement and creativity to tailor their approach to the needs of the company. The goal for the learning environment is therefore to create a safe space for conversation and inquiry between all members of the community.
"APM Montréal helped me learn how I could apply my skills to product management practices. From product strategy to influencing and communication, I had a chance practice them with other APMs during clearly defined workshops, solving real work problems with support and feedback from Senior PMs. Thank you APM Montréal for helping me get the PM experience that's required to land the first PM job."

"The APM program gives invaluable experiences from networking to critical thinking and problem solving, the opportunity to learn from and work with such a talented pool of mentors and APMs was amazing and I'm excited to see where we all go from here!"
