Methodology
For the delivery of this course, we will use the PMP Exam Prep book as a guide. We work through the material together as a
class using different modalities to help relate PMI terminology and concepts with students’ real world experience. We use
repetition, and strategic exercises that will provide you with structured study materials that allow you to review and retain
the information for use on the exam. The first four days cover the basic PM material. The fifth day will cover any remaining
material, and then go through a review session. In the afternoon, we simulate the PMP Exam, which will give students a good
understanding of what they need to continue to study before the actual exam.
