I attended PMP bootcamp April 2025 virtual class with John D and passed my PMP exam in May. John touched on and taught all of the concepts required to pass the PMP including PMBOK project management and Agile. He was great at answering questions, he was always willing to stay late if needed to help ensure understanding, he even had extra materials prepared for for some of the more challenging concepts. PMA has a lot of timing options for the bootcamp which I found very helpful with busy life. Ultimately it requires a lot of studying and dedication after the class is over to pass the PMP but for the bootcamp portion I would recommend PMA. read more

Our company brought in PMA for a two day training with instructor Stephan Hoogerwerf. The class was well organized with lots of opportunities to ask questions and talk about real life examples which all made for a really enjoyable and informative course. Stephan's presentation style was engaging and adaptive to our specific dynamics and interests. The tools provided, once incorporated, will allow for positive growth in our program. This course has more than met my expectations. read more

My company hired Project Management Academy for a 2 day training on PM basics. It was WONDERFUL! My only regret is that we ran out of time. Stephen Hoogerwerf was our instructor and I can't say enough good things about his level of knowledge, engaging teaching style, and overall instruction. You can tell that he is very passionate about leadership training and spent time debriefing with our leaders each day to ensure we were getting the most value. We had a lot of great team building and discussion about our internal projects and walked away from the class with tools to improve. We will be using PM Academy again in the future! read more

After several hours of research for myself to gain my PMP Certification I choose the Project Management Academy for my Training. I was certainly glad I did!! The website and instructional videos looked professional so I choose their class. Phillip Jackson, PMP was the instructor and he did a wonderful job of teaching our class. He was on time, personal and even took calls after hours to answer questions all the way up to you taking the exam! He taught the small class exactly what was needed and it greatly increased my chances to pass the exam on my first try!!! The online training that comes with this instruction was also crucial to my preparation. Being able to take as many quizzes and full length practice exams really helped me build confidence in the areas that I needed to focus on to learn how to take the exam. I definitely recommend the PMA to all looking to get the 35 contact hours needed for the PMP exam. read more

Took the July 2018 class in Oklahoma City with John D. Not only was John was extremely knowledgeable and efficient in his presentation of the materials during the 4-day course, he continued to make himself available afterward. The PMA course materials (slides, practice problems, practice exams, and videos), prescribed study plan and additional resources (question bank, flash cards, etc.) were top notch for exam preparation both on content - in my opinion the PMA practice questions were more difficult than the exam - and the test taking experience. I felt fully prepared for absolutely every step of the process right down to test center logistics AND the actual exam interface since PMA's practice test functions the same as the exam itself. I passed on my first attempt, well above target in all five domains. I highly recommend PMA for anyone seeking project management certification. read more

I attended PMA PMP Bootcamp training in October 2020 virtual with John Dokos - took the PMP exam on November 14th 2020 and passed with above target!! My classes were 8 days, 4.5 hours each day. We covered the entire PMBOK 6th edition guide while also being able to apply real world scenarios and was presented in a manner to be able to understand and comprehend the material as opposed to "cramming" and 100% memorization. The study guides, flashcards, questions and practice exams were paramount in helping me prep for the exam. John's insights, mannerism and expert knowledge of project management was everything that I needed. I highly recommend PMA and John Dokos! read more

The way the material is presented really helps the student understand how the discipline is organized and provided the necessary concepts for success.

I passed the PMP exam on my first attempt and the Project Management Academy (PMA) was instrumental in me doing so. The 4 day class was brilliantly organized where you didn't feel you too overwhelmed with the high volume of information. Phillip Jackson was one of the best instructors I've had in any learning environment. He was very helpful clarifying even the most challenging concepts. Additionally, PMAs online resources were excellent, both pre and post boot camp. The practice exams on the website seemed harder than the actual exam, which makes for great prep. I'd highly recommend PMA to anyone attempting the PMP exam. read more

If you are considering getting your PMP certification, the PMP Boot Camp offered by Project Management Academy (PMA) is definitely the way to go! In July 2018, I took the boot camp with John Dokos. It was an intense 4-day course, but wow, it was so full of great information! You are supplied the PMP guide and other instructional materials. You are in the boot camp with other like-minded individuals that are seeking the same goal as you. John Dokos used numerous real-life examples during his instruction to help make a connection with the material. I did not feel embarrassed to ask questions or get clarification. Once the camp was over and my PMP application was accepted, I scheduled my PMP exam for approximately 6 weeks later. PMA provides online tutoring webinars which I found to be incredibly helpful once I was studying on my own. Online mock questions were also provided through their site, which was beneficial as well. I PASSED on the first attempt in the above target range in all categories thanks to the PMA boot camp and follow-up studying of their materials on my own. read more
