Everything you need to pass, in one enrollment.

Live instruction, PMI-authorized curriculum, practice-exam access, application assistance, and bonus PDUs for after you certify. Nothing extra to buy.

Official PMI curriculum

The full PMP curriculum maintained by PMI, taught by an Authorized Training Partner instructor.

35 PMI Contact Hours

Satisfies the 35-hour PM education requirement on the PMP application. Issued on your Certificate of Completion.

Online class materials

Student-portal resources you keep: slides, formula sheets, exam blueprint walkthroughs, and process-group reference.

PMTraining practice exam portal

Full access to realistic timed simulations matched to the new exam blueprint — 1,000+ questions.

One-on-one instructor access

Office hours and direct Q&A with your live instructor between sessions. Not a bot, not a TA queue.

PMI application assistance

Step-by-step help with the PMI application: project-experience write-ups, hour totals, and audit prep.

PMTraining (PMI Premier ATP)

Accredited delivery via PMTraining — the same accreditation as the high-end corporate programs.

30 bonus PDUs (on-demand)

After certification, a bundled on-demand course worth 30 PDUs ($348 value) toward your three-year cycle.

100% money-back guarantee

Don't pass after three attempts within 120 days of class end? We refund your full enrollment.

PMP eligibility

Two paths to qualify. Pick yours.

PMI requires three things: project leadership hours, 35 hours of PM education, and a passing exam score. Your degree determines how many leadership months you need.

35 hours of PM education, satisfied by this class
Pass the PMP exam, backed by our money-back guarantee

Application support is bundled with every class. Your instructor walks you through project-experience write-ups, hour totals, and audit prep if PMI selects you.

Pass guarantee

100% money-back — and exactly what we mean by it.

If you don't pass the PMP after three attempts within 120 days of your live class ending, we refund the full enrollment amount.

FAQ

Questions students always ask.

Do I need my PMP already to take this class?

No. This class prepares you to sit for the PMP exam. You'll need to meet PMI's eligibility requirements and submit your application before testing.

What are the 35 contact hours — and do I get them?

PMI requires 35 hours of formal PM education before you can sit for the exam. Our class delivers exactly 35 contact hours and you receive a Certificate of Completion that satisfies the requirement.

How does the money-back guarantee actually work?

If you don't pass after three attempts within 120 calendar days of your live class ending, we refund the full amount you paid. To qualify: attend in full, complete every practice exam and quiz, and receive your Certificate of Completion before your first attempt.

What's included in the tuition?

Live online instruction (35 contact hours), course materials and slides, our practice-exam portal with 1,000+ questions, application help, and the pass guarantee. The PMI exam fee is paid separately to PMI.

Is the exam voucher included?

No. The PMP exam fee is paid directly to PMI when you submit your application: ~$405 for PMI members, ~$555 for non-members. We do not mark this up.

What's the class size?

Capped at 15 students per cohort so you can ask questions, join breakouts and get instructor attention. Most cohorts run with 10–14 active students.

Are recordings available if I miss a class?

Yes. Every session is recorded and shared within 24 hours. Note: the pass guarantee requires attending in full — recordings are for review and make-up, not a substitute under the guarantee.

Are payment plans available?

Yes. Checkout supports a split-payment option for U.S.-based learners. For invoicing or PO-based purchases (employer-paid), email us and we'll send a quote, W-9 and invoice.

Can I get my employer to pay for this?

Most employers reimburse PMP training as professional development. We provide invoices, W-9s, and corporate purchase-order support on request. Many students have their tuition reimbursed in full.

What if I can't attend the time I signed up for?

Free transfer to any future cohort up to 7 days before class start. Inside 7 days we'll work with you to find a solution — we don't penalize you for needing to move.
