MILLIONS of people have been affected by the pandemic - lost their jobs, financial security, and much, much more. After receiving hundreds of LinkedIn connection requests & invites to Zoom ☕️ chats, the TOP 3 questions I received were:

🔀 How can I make a career transition into #ProductManagement ?
📣 How do I translate my skills and experience into "PM lingo", demonstrating my value to a hiring manager?
🤝 Where can I find a community of people who are in the same boat, so that we can collaborate and support each other?

This sparked the idea 💡 for the 5 week Aspiring Product Manager (APM) - a collaborative learning community where people from around the world can learn & build together 🛠 🌿 Our goal is to make Product Management resources available & accessible to anyone - regardless of their financial situation.

Community members will have an opportunity to put on their Product Manager hat 🎩 and translate their skills into hands-on projects. This is a safe space to practice, grow, and fail forward ❤️ Show less
