Excellent Experience! I learned so much and feel prepared to take the PMP Exam.

If you are considering PMP exam preparation and are nervous about an online format - choose PMA. I recommend the PMA Bootcamp and Lenora H., who led the online course I took. I was nervous about taking an online 4-day boot camp course but in the days of COVID that was my best option and I believe PMA & Lenora has done it well! The boot camp was tough, being online, but Lenora did a great job leading the course. I took the weekend version - 2 weekends, Saturday and Sunday for 8 hours each day (after working full time during the week). Lenora was in touch with the ebbs and flows of being online for so long and keeping things engaging. All participants have the ability to contribute to the class via a chat and Lenora reads and engages with those chats. After the Bootcamp, Leora makes herself available for further questions via email. If I had a question about a topic or a missed practice exam question, I could email her and I think within a day she would respond!! Prior to my signing up to the Bootcamp, I emailed PMA and their responses were quick and generally helpful. Outside of the Boot Camp itself, the materials (all accessible online) provided by PMA were essential to my passing the PMP. PMA provides a roadmap of what one can do to study and prepare for the exam after the boot camp--this was what I needed. I took the online proctored exam yesterday and I passed. PROS: - Clear map of how and what to do to prepare for the exam - Live virtual online Boot camp w/ excellent instructor (Lenora) - Training Materials available pre and post Bootcamp that are really outstanding and while the site is a bit "old" feeling; it's easy to navigate and the content is GOOD. - Full Money-Back Pass Guarantee CONS: - There are none. NOTE: It was my experience (and suggested by PMA), you do have to do the work of studying outside of just the Bootcamp to pass. If your expectations are different, maybe reconsider sitting for the PMP exam.

The content was comprehensive with great focus on strategies for studying, applying for, and taking the CAPM and PMP exams.

Thank you for the professional and competent PMP Bootcamp and Instructor. The course was managed correctly, individual subjects were timely and complete. The registration was seamless and the PMI representative was very polite and informative while signing me up for course. Excellent experience/ Tks/ Bill

I took the class in January 2020, with Michael P. Toothman as the Instructor. He was fantastic, knowledgeable, entertaining, and held everyone accountable. He made the materials less dry. He even followed up with us a few months later to keep us motivated and assist if needed. The PMA class was a great resource, the materials and practice test exams have been organized logically to help you understand and digest all the process and knowledge areas. The exam materials also allowed me to assess my competencies in all the areas to drill down where needed. Overall great experience, thanks again to Michael P. Toothman. I can't say enough about him as an instructor. I passed the PMP exam!

I took the PMP bootcamp (virtual, since our in-person class was canceled due to Covid), M-Th. I scored well on their in-class practice test despite my very limited studying before the bootcamp - a testament to how thorough the bootcamp is. I scheduled the PMP exam the following Monday, studied weak areas over the weekend, and I PASSED the PMP exam “above target” in all areas. Their online study tools are invaluable. They have so much content- I don’t think I even reviewed a third of what they have to offer. The instructor Russ Thornley was attentive to class questions and really knew his stuff. The material can be very dry, but Russ did his best to keep it fun and engaging. 10/10 Would recommend this bootcamp to others.

Crystal Richards was so passionate and energetic about PMP knowledge. She provided all the knowledge and tips needed to pass the exam. She was responsive after the boot camp for any questions or concerns we had. Anyone is lucky to have her as their trainer for the PMP boot camp!

I passed my PMI-PBA exam on the first try thanks to Bill Holmes' online virtual class and the study materials. I scored above target in all domain areas. His class was well organized and he provided lots of real life examples to help better understand the material. He kept everyone very engaged and paused anytime the class struggled in an area. I would highly recommend his PMI-PBA course and PMA for passing on your first attempt. Good Luck!
