Project Management Professional (PMP) Certification Training
Course Introduction The Project Management Professional(PMP)® credential is the most globally recognised certification for projectmanagers, issued by the Project Management Institute (PMI®). It validates aprofessional’s ability to lead and direct projects across predictive(waterfall), agile, and hybrid approaches — the three ways of working that PMI®recognises as equally valid in the modern project environment. Procert Academy’s PMP®Certification Training is a 5-day, instructor-led intensive designed to takeparticipants from working project experience to full exam readiness. The courseis built directly against the current PMI® Examination Content Outline (ECO)and covers the three ECO domains — People, Process, and Business Environment —in the same proportions the exam itself weights them, so that classroom timemirrors exam time. Delivery combines structured instruction, PMBOK® Guide andAgile Practice Guide concepts, real project scenarios from the Nigerian oil& gas, construction, telecoms, and public-sector environments, situationalpractice questions, and a full-length mock exam with review. Participants leave with all 35contact hours of project management education required to apply for the PMP®exam, a working command of predictive, agile, and hybrid techniques, and astructured personal study plan for the final stretch to exam day. Course Objectives By the end of this course, participants will be able to:
