About this programme
The PMP is the project management credential hiring managers recognise without explanation, and it is also the one people most often fail on their first attempt. This programme covers all three domains of the current Examination Content Outline — People, Process and Business Environment — across predictive, agile and hybrid delivery approaches. You sit four full-length timed mock exams, and after each one we go through a domain-by-domain breakdown of where marks were lost. The 35 contact hours PMI requires are issued as a certificate at the end of the course, and a counsellor reviews your application form before you submit it.
Who should attend
- Project managers, delivery leads, scrum masters and senior engineers who already run projects and want the credential to match.
Prerequisites
- A four-year degree plus 36 months of project leadership experience, or a secondary diploma plus 60 months. We check your eligibility on the counselling call before you pay anything.
Curriculum
6 modules, 35 hours of live instruction.
