Congratulations to Marilyn Cooper who recently passed the PMP Exam on her first try and has now achieved her PMP certification!
 

Here is what Marilyn had to say about the PMP Exam Prep course materials...

“I think what was most valuable is the whole package - the course started the study process, the textbook gave "depth", the online content repeated and added to what I knew and provided opportunity to test my knowledge and refine my studying, and the flashcards helped me with memorization.  When I first started listening to the audio CDs, I thought they would be the least useful, but in the end they made my commute useful and got me thinking about each of the knowledge areas.”

- Marilyn Cooper, PMP

Short presentation on how we do it!

The “blended learning” format; 3-days instructor-led training followed by InSite, the self paced  e-learning module, means you spend less time away from work while allowing you to complete your preparation for the PMP exam according to your own schedule. Course materials include, “The PMP Exam: How to Pass on Your First Try” by Andy Crowe, 5 audio CDs where Andy Crowe and two other project management specialists discuss the project management and what you need to know to pass the PMP exam, a laminated quick reference guide, an on-line customizable PMP exam simulator containing over 1000 sample questions, and flash cards to help you study.

All this, up to 56 PDUs/contact hours, and the fact this course is offered in association with two of the most well respected Universities in Canada; the University of Toronto and the University of Waterloo, the questions is why would you choose any other PMP Exam prep course?

What our clients say about our PMP Exam Prep - the Velociteach System workshop...

“There is no way I could have passed without the course. The material is essential.”
- David Miles, PMP

“The format in which the framework was presented help to solidify my understanding. I found it useful in helping me to map the processes, process groups and knowledge areas. The regular testing was also helpful to gain confidence for the final exam.”
- Claire McEvoy, PMP

“Personally, the audio CD’s helped me the most after the course material.  I would listen to one Knowledge Group discussion on the CD, then switch over to the INSITE online test for that Knowledge Group to see how much I retained, and once all the CD’s were listened to and the Knowledge Group tests were done, I did a full SIMULATION test.  Based on those results, I would refocus on those areas that were deficient on comprehensive, and re-listen to the CD, and then retest.  I then saved the night before for only a simulation test.”
- Darryl Spector, PMP
Promation Engineering Ltd.

“I spent a number of hours preparing for the exam by using the InSite classroom sessions, reading and re-reading the textbook (each time picking up a few more details) and lots of sample questions.  This was in conjunction with taking the 'Project Tools and Techniques' and 'PMP Exam Prep' courses at uWaterloo.”
- Carol H.PMP,
The Economical Insurance Group

“My sole resource for passing the exam was attending your exam prep workshop and studying the provided text/info and using the on-line testing lab (which was very helpful).
- Edward Lacroix, M.Sc., PMP, P.Eng

“ ...to share interactively with others in the class was key as well as the strategies for taking the exam.... I used everything. The most useful materials for me were the book which I read cover to cover, the laminated summary sheet (it is awesome!) and the Insite modules and test lab.  I did listen to the audio cds in the car and worked the flash cards as well. The PMP Exam Prep workshop delivered – passing the PMP exam on the first try!  Thank you for a first class workshop!”

Not just a course — The Velociteach PMP Exam Prep system is a blended learning solution which includes three main components.

First component — a very intensive 3-day instructor led course consisting of 17 modules that cover the entire scope of knowledge required for passing the PMP exam. Taught by industry experts, the course is chock full of advice, study techniques, and best practices for passing the exam.  Materials include a comprehensive workbook including course slides and plenty of room for notes to help you study.

Second component — the InSite e-learning system; which includes an e-learning component and a PMP exam testing lab. The e-learning portion supplements the instructor led course and provides about 15 – 20 hours of project management training reinforcement. Participants can go through all of the e-learning modules, or select specific modules to clarify and review specific exam topics. By completing the entire e-learning module, participants can earn up to 20 PDUs (in addition to the 21 PDUs earned during the 3-day instructor-led course).

The testing lab allows you to simulate the taking of an actual 4 hour PMP exam, or create custom tests of any length focused on specific areas of your choice. The results of each test are recorded, so you can see where you need to focus in order to pass the exam.

Third component — Andy Crowe’s book “The PMP Exam: How to Pass on Your First Try”, flash cards, laminated quick reference guide and audio tapes. Use these as you study leading up to your exam, to help ensure that you know the material inside and out
