We run our PMP® Exam Preparation course alongside our Certified

If you are unsure about whether you have enough experience for
the PMP® exam, your trainer can advise you during the course.

If you find you don’t have enough experience to apply for the PMP®
Exam, you can still work towards the CAPM® certification, another
internationally recognised PMI® qualification.
