More Information About PMP® Certification

“How do I become PMP® certified?”


Experienced project managers holding a PMP® certification are in demand across every sector worldwide.

There are several routes to achieving your certification. Here is our tried-and-trusted 3-step formula for achieving PMP® certification:

  • Step 1: Formal PMP training


    It is important to begin your PMP® exam preparation with the support and guidance of formal training.

    As already noted, 35 hours of formal project management training is a PMI® requirement for those sitting the PMP® exam. Our programme satisfies this requirement.

    Aside from covering this requirement, our 5-day PMP® Course provides you with insights, structure, and opportunities for Q&A sessions.

  • Step 2: Study + Exam Simulator


    The time frame for study periods varies from student to student. On average, a period of 6 weeks is ideal.

    Utilising a high-quality PMP® exam simulator during your study time is key for achieving the mindset and confidence needed to pass your exam. This is included with our programme.

    You will also complete your PMI® application for the PMP® exam during this time.

  • Step 3: Exam + Certification


    When you’re ready, schedule your exam.

    Once you have passed the exam, you will receive your PMP® credential directly from the PMI®.

Eligibility Requirements


Our PMP® exam preparation course is designed for project managers with a minimum of 3 years’ experience in a project management role. This experience must be within the past 8 years.*

PMP® Training for Teams

If you have several candidates for PMP® exam prep training, our in-company format may be the wisest choice for you.

Often also called “on-site” or “in-house” training, this style of PMP® exam preparation makes it easy for your entire team to prepare for the PMP® exam at the same time.

Here are some of the benefits you'll gain by choosing an in-company style of training delivery:


  • Flexibility


    In-house training gives you the ability to schedule training at a time that works best for your schedule.

    It removes the inconvenience of having to take someone out of their role for training at a busy time.

  • Savings


    When you have a number of potential candidates for training, in-company can work out as extremely cost-effective.

  • Convenience


    We will come to your premises, or a location chosen by you to deliver the training. Alternatively, you can opt for live virtual training delivery.

    This minimises disruption and eliminates travel costs for your team.

  • Customisation


    Although the PMP® course syllabus must always be adhered to, we can always take your business and any challenges you are facing into account when delivering the course.

    We will make the training delivery most relevant to your team.
