Great PMP Exam Training

by Josh

The PM Prepcast is having a celebration for the milestone of having helped 10,000 Students prepare for the PMP exam.

In terms of a self-study course to help prepare for the PMP exam, The PM Prepcast is the only one I recommend. Why? Because I purchased it myself when I was studying for my PMP exam and I enjoyed a few key aspects of the program:

Most importantly, the program doesn’t just teach you to memorize questions so you can pass a test. Cornelius uses real-world examples to illustrate the points and this made it something I could relate to.
Quality: It’s a huge amount of quality training material. No skimping here. With a 100% money back guarantee, they stand behind their product’s quality.
Portability: I listened to The PM Prepcast on my daily commute while I was studying for the PMP exam. This portability is essential for me, and because I’m an audio/visual learner it was perfect.

Updates to the Best PMP Prep Around

by Josh September 4, 2008 PMP

You may already know that I purchased the Project Management PrepCast™ shortly after it was released last year by Cornelius Fitchner, the host of the Project Management Podcast. I enjoy the product immensely, as audio is a good format for me to learn. The focus is on understanding the concepts internally, so that you know this stuff instead of rote memorization. There are several updates that have been made since I first became a customer and wrote about it, and I would like to share those with you now.
