This course is specifically designed to assist students in preparing for the Project Management Professional (PMP)^® exam, given by the Project Management Institute (PMI)^®.

Included with the class are tips, tricks, exercises and targeted materials that will assist the student in reviewing for and passing the exam.

A complete PMP^® exam simulation at the end of the course helps students determine if they are ready to take the official exam, and gives them insight into specific areas they will need to study in order to succeed.
