We’re entering the final chapter of AME!Founded in 2012, when Larry and Heather transitioned from the George Morris Centre, AME became known for delivering essential management programs like CTEAM, Introduction to Price Risk Management, and EDP. Together, Heather and Larry used their diverse expertise and backgrounds to create programs that developed the management skills of agriculture and agri-food professionals across Canada. We take pride in seeing our graduates succeed—from regional and national Outstanding Young Farmers awards to watching Price Risk Management alumni evolve into outstanding commodity risk managers. We’ve introduced new programs like Advanced CTEAM and ELLE, the international agri-study tours for Alumni, led custom workshops, and built long-lasting partnerships, such as those with Farm Management Canada. While this final chapter closes as of November 30th, 2024, we’re grateful for every experience, client, and manager we had the privilege to work with. AME’s legacy lies in the people we’ve helped grow, the programs we’ve delivered, and the industry leaders we’ve worked with along the way. As Heather and Larry chart their own paths moving forward, the valuable programs you've grown to love will continue under different umbrellas. Larry will be leading a newly branded ag management program, Investing in Capital Assets in Agriculture, and the Price Risk Management programs through DLM & Associates, while Heather, through her company Bridges to Success will continue to lead the Alumni International Agri-tours, the Financial Statements and Guidelines for Canadian Agriculture project, and ELLE. Though we’re embarking on new individual journeys, our commitment to delivering high-quality programming remains the same and our respect for all AME has built continues. Many thanks to all for your support the last 12 years! And we thank you for your continued support and patience during this transition. Bridges to Success Inc.

“Going through CTEAM is like coming out of a dark tunnel with a light at the end. You gain the focus to head toward the light, and when you get to the end you realize how large your opportunities are.”- Robert Semeniuk, RAS Farms, Alberta |
