  • The PgMP Bootcamp is an intense program that has been achieving near perfect passing on the first try when utilizing the full suite of resources from PMI and PMO Advisory.

    To enable learning, this course applies a combination of traditional lecturing of key concepts, discussion of cases and examples, review of important artifacts, and sharing of experiences. Most importantly, this course includes access to the PgMP Exam Simulators. We anticipate PMI will slowly transition the exam toward the Fifth edition of the Standard for Program Management. Our plan is to offer multiple versions of the exam simulator that includes over 1,800 questions based on 4th edition and another 1,500 questions based on the 5th edition.

 

  The Master Program Management course (PgM) is a comprehensive training class designed for project and program managers who want to learn and apply the latest concepts, domains, tools, and techniques in program management. Based on the latest edition of the Standard for Program Management, this course is a blend of concepts and good practices along with the practical experiences from PMO Advisory's consulting services. The course is conducted over eight hours of real-time meetings (organized into two sessions of 4 hours each), in addition to access to a vast library of pre-recorded materials and templates.

This course is for those want to learn and practice program management, and the approach is based on a combination of traditional lecturing of key concepts, discussion of scenarios and cases and examples, review of important artifacts, and sharing of experiences.

For those who wish to prepare for the Program Management Professional (PgMP) exam, this is not the right course. Please register for one of the PgMP Bootcamps.
