PMP: Project Management Professional

Full-spectrum PMP exam prep built against PMI's current Project Management Professional (PMP)(R) Examination Content Outline (July 2026), covering all three domains across both predictive and agile/hybrid delivery approaches -- People (fostering stakeholder vision and alignment, conflict resolution, team leadership and empowerment, stakeholder engagement and expectation management, knowledge transfer, and communication planning); Process (assessing complexity and choosing a delivery approach, building an integrated project management plan, scope, value-based incremental delivery, resource and procurement and vendor management, finance, quality planning and continuous improvement, schedule development and variance analysis, status evaluation, and closure); and Business Environment (project governance, compliance, change control, impediment and issue management, risk identification and response, continuous improvement, organizational change, and scanning the external business environment for regulatory/technology/market shifts). The exam itself is 180 questions (170 scored, 10 unscored/pretest) across a 240-minute session with two scheduled 10-minute breaks, using multiple-choice, multiple-response, matching, enhanced matching, pull-down list, point-and-click, and newer case/scenario and graphic-based item formats; PMI does not publish a numeric passing score, and none is stated here. Important eligibility note: PMP is not an entry-level credential, and this course cannot make you PMP-eligible on its own. To actually sit for PMI's PMP exam, a candidate must independently document one of four experience paths within a 10-year window before applying -- 60 months (5 years) leading projects with a high school diploma/GED or global equivalent, 48 months (4 years) with an associate's degree or vocational/technical diploma, 36 months (3 years) with a bachelor's degree or higher, or 24 months (2 years) with a degree from a PMI-GAC-accredited program -- plus, on every path, 35 contact hours of project management education. This course's structured lessons and graded end-of-course quizzes are designed to count toward that 35-contact-hour education requirement (PMI's current rules let a self-paced course with graded assessments satisfy it without the course itself needing special PMI accreditation, unlike live/instructor-led offerings). What this course cannot do is supply or substitute for the years-of-experience requirement -- that experience has to be real, and the candidate documents and submits it to PMI directly as part of their own application. Completing this course does not itself grant PMP eligibility; eligibility is determined by PMI, and candidates apply directly through PMI's own certification process.
