Project Management Professional (PMP) Exam Review
The Project Management Program offers a series of professional development courses in project management. These are non-credit classes that cover topics relevant to the Project Management Institute's (PMI) Project Management Body of Knowledge (PMBOK). While these courses do not earn college credit, they do earn the Professional Development Unit (PDU) credit recognized by PMI. The courses cover basic project management principles and concepts and help prepare students for the Project Management Professional (PMP) certification examination. Most of the courses are taught by the same instructors who teach similar topics in the graduate degree program. The curriculum targets new project managers, candidates preparing for the PMP exam, and experienced PMP's who want additional skills and training in a particular area of project work.
If you plan to take the new 200-question Project Management Professional (PMP) examination, prepare for the exam by attending this thirty-five hour examination review. The ten sessions focus on knowledge you need to master to pass the exam. This review is not designed to teach project management, but to provide you with information, test-taking tips and techniques that will shorten your study time and help you pass the exam. You will have an opportunity to take a sample PMP practice exam.
