Course listing

Project Management Institute (PMI®) training

As a PMI® Global Registered Education Provider (REP), QA offers both traditional and blended training routes to the benchmark Project Management Professional (PMP) and Certified Associate in Project Management (CAPM) qualifications. Many of our generic Project Management courses are also accredited for the award of Professional Development Units (PDU’s) which are needed to retain PMP® status.

Why undertake CAPM® or PMP® certification?

The PMI® is the largest international professional body for project management, and offers the qualifications of choice for many multi-national corporations The PMP® credential is one of the most sought after qualification for project managers around the world and the CAPM® credential offers a recognized entry level qualification.

What is involved in CAPM®/PMP® certification?

The Certified Associate in Project Management (CAPM®) is a globally-recognised entry level qualification for those involved in project management. The 150 question, three-hour, multiple-choice examination is based on the PMBOK® Guide and is taken online at a Prometric Testing Centre.

The Project Management Professional (PMP®) is the main qualification from the PMI. The 200 question, four-hour, multiple-choice examination is based on the PMBOK® Guide and is taken online at any Prometric Testing Centre.

QA’s PMP® Examination Preparation Workshop is designed to provide candidates who have already acquired a thorough understanding of generic project management with the specific coaching required to pass the PMP examination. Candidates with little or no previous knowledge of formal project management techniques should first attend our generic five-day Project Management course. QA’s CAPM® Examination Preparation Workshop is designed to prepare attendees for taking the CAPM® exam but can also be used as an overview of the PMBOK® Guide approach.

We also offer a Blended Programme (on-site only) – a unique combination of state of the art web-based modules mixed with specially tailored classroom sessions and virtual classroom tutorial sessions to consolidate learning.

PMP® certificants need to renew every three years to maintain their certification. This is achieved by earning Professional Development Units (PDU’s) – 60 PDU’s need to be earned in order to re-certify. As an REP we are empowered to award Category 3 PDU’s for our courses.
