Testimonials

“I was in my late 30’s when I decided to pursue my PMP.  It felt like ages since I’ve been in school and I wasn’t sure I even knew how to study at that point. However, my nerves and doubts quickly went away when I began the Successful Projects PMP program.  The way the material and sessions were broken out made so much sense and made retention of the topics easy.  The instructors were very knowledgeable and helpful.  They were committed to my journey and instilled the confidence in me that I needed for exam day.  After I got the exciting news that I passed, I’m pretty sure I called my instructor before my spouse!”

Testimonials

“I just accepted a position as a full time Project Coordinator Intern! I obtained the position because I had the background in and passion for PM that I gained from your certification program. I learned many great tactics to ensure that projects are completed successfully. One aspect of the program that I genuinely appreciated was that each student got paired with a mentor/leader that had workforce experience in Project Management. My mentor, Deb Roch, was super personable and supplied great feedback. This program has made me stand out to several employers, which helped push me further into interview process for multiple jobs. If I was to go back in time, I would 100% complete this program again.”

“Great value for the money – fun, interactive. I taught Risk today and used lots of things you had taught! I stressed opportunities and used the EESA and MATA (which you taught me). I will recommend some of my Advanced PM students to come.”
