The Project Management Academy Bootcamp course led by Gary Lind was absolutely amazing. I very much enjoyed learning from him as he gave actual examples for all the topics and critical concepts we covered. He also was extremely engaging and made the class very exciting and fun to be a part of. Gary is obviously someone with an extensive background and knowledge and pair that up with his current role as a pilot and you get one heck of an instructor with extreme enthusiasm and passion. That level of dedication to students (including responding to emails at 3AM) is very difficult to find in the education space. Because of Gary, what could have been a long and arduous 4 days of intensive studying, turned into a very fun, all-encompassing learning experience that goes beyond just the PMBOK. I looked forward to the course each and every day and thoroughly enjoyed it. I passed my exam scoring above average in all 3 criteria areas because of Gary's coaching and prep. He not only discussed the material but also the mindset of the exam taker and the ways to beat a test and understand how to find correct answers when you are not 100% certain. In addition to that, he helped with PMI applications as well and coached me through my application process to ensure I was highlighting my skills and experience in the most optimal way. I would HIGHLY RECOMMEND his boot-camp course to anyone who wants to pass their PMP - it's as simple as that. If you are unsure about the methods to go about studying, and preparing to earn your PMP, just sign up for his course, period. read more

I recently completed the PMP bootcamp in Kansas City with Jeff Hogan, and I can't recommend him enough as an instructor. Jeff's teaching style is clear, engaging, and incredibly well-organized. He has a knack for breaking down complex concepts into easy-to-understand explanations, while also sharing real-world examples that make the material click. What really stood out was his patience and willingness to answer every question--no matter how big or small--until the whole class was confident in the topic. He kept the pace challenging but manageable, and he balanced covering the exam content with giving us practical project management tips we could apply right away. By the end of the bootcamp, I felt not just prepared for the PMP exam, but also more confident in my overall project management skills. If you're considering PMP training, Jeff Hogan is exactly the kind of instructor you want in your corner. Even after the course ended, Jeff has continued to be an invaluable resource--answering my questions and guiding me through the PMP application process. That kind of ongoing support is rare, and it shows how much he genuinely cares about his students' success. Thanks Jeff! read more

I attended the PMP Bootcamp in September of 2018 and my instructor was John D. I passed the CAPM exam after attending the training. I took the CAPM instead of the PMP because I didn't meet all the requirements for the PMP exam. The material and resources provided were amazing and super helpful. John made the material from the PMBOK very easy to understand and had lots of industry knowledge to help make things relate to real world. I would advise anyone who wants to pass either the PMP or the CAPM to attend this bootcamp. They have lots of online resources for studying and reviewing the material. The online videos have lots of information and John brings more information that combined made it easy to pass this the test. read more

I am so happy with my CAPM Prep course! This 3-day course was full of knowledge delivered by an instructor led virtual class over Zoom. Our instructor, Hans Meijer from Miami, FL, was absolutely amazing. It was obvious that he was teaching with years of hands-on experience and that he was passionate about passing on his knowledge. He made the class fun and very interactive. I've sat through virtual courses and workshops where no one spoke. Hans made it fun to participate. I feel like I have a solid start on the road to achieving my CAPM certification. Thank you Hans and Project Management Academy for giving me my start! I look forward to future project management courses through you and hope Hans is my next instructor! read more

I attended the Project Management Academy PMP training in February 2018. I highly recommend the course for anyone who is serious about taking, and passing, the PMI PMP certification test.

He took the time to explain everything in detail and made sure to stress the important things to understand on each topic. He uses several examples to explain complex topics to make it easy to understand and made sure to clear any questions from students. Although it was four long days, he made sure to say something funny every so often to keep it interesting and made sure to give regular breaks. Overall, John's a great instructor, with an abundance of knowledge and a big reason I was able to pass the exam. Thank you, John! read more

I attended the PMP exam prep course offered by the Project Management Academy in Kansas City (Overland Park, KS) that was held at the end of October 2017.

I participated in the PMP Exam-Prep Bootcamp offered by PMA in November of 2014. This camp was a 4 day instructor led course. Francis Mies (the instructor) was great and bought a lot of pertinent real world examples to our class. PMA provided a good number of study materials (i.e. various handouts and online videos) including the PMBOK. After bootcamp, PMA continued to provide support and access to mock exams, videos and other study materials for 6 months. Most importantly, I was able to pass the PMP exam on my first try. If you are serious about sitting for the PMP exam, I would highly recommend taking a bootcamp to help you prepare for that exam. read more

This is definitely a course that I would recommend to others who want to pass the PMP exam on their first try.

I attended the January 2019 PMP Exam-Prep Bootcamp offered by PMA and taught by John Dokos. I sat for my exam two days following the conclusion of the Bootcamp and passed with an above target score. There is no way I could have done this without the valuable information I gained by attending the Bootcamp, the class materials and study guides I received from PMA, the expert knowledge and real life scenarios shared by the instructor, and the opportunity to network with the other class participants. I would highly recommend this course to anyone preparing to sit for the PMP exam! read more

I attended the 4-day PMP bootcamp with Alan Gopin in February 2018. While the class was completely immersive and moved at a very fast pace, it completely set me up to pass the exam. The 4-day classes broken down the PMBOK into manageable and easy to understand chapters and taught me the basics needed to become a PMP. Without the class materials I don't believe I would have passed the exam on the first try. I highly recommend Project Management Academy to anyone considering taking the PMP exam. If you follow the course outline and study guide, you will pass! read more

Donna from Project Management Academy did an awesome job leading our class thru the PMP Exam-Prep Boot Camp October 5-8, 2015 in Overland Park, KS. She added a lot of bonus information gained from her years of experience and kept the class moving briskly through a ton of material. Using the information from the class and their handouts, laminated study sheets, and sample tests for prep, I passed the PMP exam on the first try following the class. I definitely recommend Donna and the Project Management Academy. read more

I really enjoyed the process of prepping for the PMP exam through training at PMA. The Bootcamp was the first step, Aug2022, lead by Wayne Brantley. Wayne has a tremendous history and a wealth of knowledge that he is able to relate and relay to his students. The bootcamp is fast paced, a lot of information but incredibly useful. They offer supplemental training (day 5) which was well worth it, led by Marcus Beard. The efforts reaped the reward for me. I would highly recommend training via PMA. read more

I participated in the PMP Exam Prep Bootcamp offered by PMA in Jan 2019 in Overland Park, Kansas. I gave the certification test on March 2 and passed.

John is an 'amazing' teacher for PMP exam prep. I would recommend anyone who wants to pass the test the first time to have John D as the instructor. Thanks. read more

I really enjoyed the four day PMP boot camp (Oct 2017 in Overland Park, KS). The class was a great balance of teaching the PMBOK material and exam preparation.

I highly recommend PMA, and feel the tools and instruction provided will not only prepare you for the exam but also be successful in your PM position. read more

Recruiters have been contacting me daily since updating my resume with the PMP designation. Thanks Donna. read more

And I finally did it - I passed my PMP! read more
