We also provide tutoring (Einzelunterricht), individual coaching, or special private lessons for persons who need or prefer such direct training and who wish to arrange this with us.

Target Audiences

The target audiences for this training are:

  1. experienced project managers who wish to obtain the globally-recognized PMP® certification from PMI®, and
  2. new project managers, project assistants and team members with specialized skills who wish to obtain the globally-recognized CAPM® certification from PMI®, or project managers who do not yet have the experience required to be eligible for the PMP®

PMP® Certification

The PMP® is broadly recognized as the leading global certification standard of the project management profession. Obtaining this project management certification usually has numerous advantages, both for the individual and the organization in which he/she works.  To be qualified for the PMP®, applicants must:

  • have 35 hours of verifiable project management training, and
  • have either a bachelor's degree plus a minimum of 4'500 hours of project management experience, or have a high school diploma plus a minimum of 7'500 hours of project management experience, and
  • must pass a 200-question project management exam in four hours. 

CAPM® Certification

The CAPM® certification is designed for new, or relatively inexperienced project managers, and persons who provide specialized skills to a project, such as subject-matter experts like engineers, IT / computer specialists, project assistants, project office administrative personnel, etc. Participants do not need to have previous experience in project management. Participants of the client's organization usually attend at the same time together with participants from the same organization attending the PMP® training. This has the advantage that new project managers and team members also learn from their more-experienced PM colleagues during the training exercises, discussions, and other group interactions. If a project manager does not yet met the minimum experience requirements for the PMP®, they may obtain the CAPM® credential until they do meet the PMP® requirements. To be qualified for the CAPM®, applicants must:

  • have a high school diploma, plus 
  • have either at least 23 hours of verifiable project management training, or have a minimum of 1'500 hours of project management experience,
  • must pass a 150-question project management exam in three hours.

Advantages of this Training Course

This course enables project managers, as well as professionals who provide specialized skills to projects, to complete PMI® exam preparation training within a short period of time. The training is conducted and guided by an experienced project manager and project management trainer who is PMP® certified. Explanations, clarifications, exercises, learning games, and discussions increase the participants understanding and learning.
