APM PROJECT MANAGEMENT QUALIFICATION (PMQ)

I wanted to say thank you very much for your support, guidance and encouragement on the Project Management Qualification. I really enjoyed the course and your company. The delivery was brilliant and I just wish that all courses and training opportunities could be more like this! It has really inspired me to take the next move in my career.

I found the course very useful and I think Mike and Paul did a great job in delivering the topic in a fun and engaging way. They went above and beyond in offering time to talk us through subjects on a one-to-one basis in the weeks leading up to the exam which I found very helpful. Moving from physical sessions to online was also done seamlessly in trying circumstances. I would definitely recommend to others!

Could not praise PL Projects enough! Fantastic delivery, extremely knowledgeable and Mike and Paul both made the whole experience of gaining the APM PMQ intensive but fun. Great team!

Mike taught my Project Management Qualification course a good few years ago and it was great. I remember enjoying it from start to end and got so much out of it. Would highly recommend.

WHAT IS IT?

The Association for Project Management (APM) PMQ course is designed to provide a more advanced treatment of the topics covered in the APM’s ‘Body of Knowledge’. This includes a broad range of project management concepts and terminology and a working understanding of how these can be implemented to deliver successful projects, from individual assignments through to large capital projects.

This course is completed part time, three hours weekly over 15 weeks, with a 3-hour written examination upon completion.

WHO IS IT FOR?

The PMQ is designed for professionals who wish to take the next step in their project careers and acquire a broad range of project management knowledge. Applicants typically have some pre-existing project management knowledge or experience and it is the ideal next step for anyone holding the APM PFQ.

HOW IS IT STRUCTURED?

In advance of the course, delegates will be provided with suitable pre-reading as a pre-requisite for taking the course. If you have any questions whilst you are going through the reading, these can be discussed in the training sessions. Throughout the delivery, there will be an expectation to do ‘homework’ and partake in exercises and group work, as this is an extensive course aimed at those who wish to immerse themselves in the subject matter.

The online course is presented in a classroom style delivery via a live video-conferencing platform.
