About the Program
APM Montreal is a community-led, cohort based training program for product managers at the start of their career.
Mentors are product leaders working in the Montreal community and are volunteering their time. The result is a hands-on and practical approach that focuses on how PM problems get solved in real situations and with specific tactics with passionate and dedicated teachers.
In most cases, companies send both an APM and a Mentor as a pair to participate in the program. APM Montreal's mission is to increase accessibility to product management while building a strong tech ecosystem in Montreal.

"Seeing that most product managers starting out have similar problems and concerns as you was eye-opening, and learning how others have surmounted those challenges helped guide me in my path”

Join the program as a Mentor
Our program is taught entirely by volunteer product leaders from the Montreal community.
Mentors usually bring an APM from their organization and also participate in the sessions.
For more on what is expected of Mentors, please see our FAQs.
"Both can probably teach you how to make informed decisions under pressure and how to put out fires, but APM Montreal isn’t to be confused with its homonym, l’Association des pompiers de Montréal (APM). :) The Associate Product Management Montreal program will also teach you the craft of product management and pair you with professionals who have real experience in launching and managing products. It’s been a treat to be able to share product battle-scars and expertise with seasoned PMs and young Associates alike. I look forward to continue seeing the PM community grow in Montreal. There’s so much talent here. "
