What is PMP?

PMP (Project Management Professional) is one of the most internationally recognized certifications granted by the  Project Management Institute (PMI) to individuals who possess a professional level of knowledge and professionalism in the field of Project Management.

Why PMP?

The PMP is the most widely recognized certificate offered by PMI and covers the majority of topics related to project management. This certificate demonstrates your understanding of the global language of project management and connects you to a community of professionals, organizations and experts worldwide. As a PMP, you can work in almost any industry around the world. More employers demand this certification as an employment requirement. Obtaining PMP certification also results in greater recognition from peers and improves career and salary opportunities.

Workshop Schedule

PMP Upcoming Workshop

PMP exam preparation workshop objectives

The focus of this workshop is to prepare individuals and build their confidence for the PMP exam by reviewing subjects covered in Project Management Body of Knowledge (PMBOK) and working through various sample questions. Materials in this class are based on the A Guide to the Project Management Body of Knowledge, (PMBOK® Guide) – Sixth Edition, Project Management Institute Inc., 2017. The workshop will clarify the rational of typical PMP examination multiple-choice questions and answers so that exam takers learn how strategically find the best answer choice. In addition, this workshop will be insightful for individuals who aim to learn the basics of project management rather than taking the PMP exam.

  • Acquiring the necessary tools and techniques and the best way they can be implemented in a project
  • Understanding tasks related to PMBOK’s five Process Groups and ten Knowledge Areas
