Program Outline:

The program provides a detailed review for the participants who need to pass the exam. The material covers the 9 knowledge areas, the 5 processes, a review of all math formulas and actual tips on writing the exam.
The workshops focus on PMI terminology and processes (American), comparing them with Canadian industry terminology. Although the course is intended to help participants write and pass the exam, participants will get a large dose of practical experience as well as some principles and theories to help them in their day-to-day work.
The learning environment is highly interactive; the participants are grouped in round table seating which encourages group discussions. Participants are encouraged to challenge each other in a friendly and constructive manner.
The program uses a unique approach which follows the natural delivery of projects i.e. initiation, planning, execution, monitoring and control, and close. Based on participant feedback, this is the preferred approach to teaching PMI material.
