The purpose of this program is to provide you with skills, knowledge and tools to make you more attractive to potential employers in the area. Ultimately we want you to use the knowledge you have gained in our program to achieve your PMP® certification and to find a job. If you are competing for project management jobs, it will be very beneficial for you to have a PMP® and TSPM© credentials.

A pre-screening form detailing your project management experience will be required before you are accepted in this program. Since an integral portion of this program prepares the student for applying for and taking the PMP® Exam, project management experience and education guidelines required by PMI for the PMP® Exam application must be met to participate.

The first two weeks will be focused on instructor-led training as follows. The classes will generally be 8:00 to 5:00 at the Knowledge Development Center by the Perimeter Mall.

Week 1 – Project Management Fundamentals (40 hours)

Monday morning

• The instructor will help each student complete the PMI® (Project Management Institute) registration process for the PMP® certification exam based on the student’s work experience. (Click here to validate the required work experience - http://www.pmi.org/Certification/Project-Management-Professional-PMP.aspx.)

  • All students must bring their resumes and work history information.

  • The instructor will coach the students on how to complete the application.

  • If the students already have documented 35 contact hours, they can submit the application once completed. Otherwise, submission of the application will be done at the end of the week once they have completed the Project Management Simulation Workshop. The workshop will provide them with the 35 contact hours.

  This will take approximately one hour.

Monday afternoon - Thursday

• Students will attend a three and a half-day training session on practical project management and how to apply the PMBOK concepts on real-world projects including an interactive project simulation (software-based). The TSPM© certification is available to students who meet or exceed the grading criteria. Click here for more information on this course.
