This program provides students the basic competencies involved in project management and oversight including areas such as effective time management, managing multiple projects simultaneously, scope and estimation of project undertaking and preparing a project plan alongside project risk and cost analysis. The program includes training and exam preparation for students to become a Certified Associate in Project Management (CAPM®) as designated by the Project Management Institute. The CAPM® is a valuable entry-level certification for project practitioners designed for those with little or no project experience. The CAPM® credential demonstrates an understanding of the fundamental knowledge, terminology and processes of effective project management.

This completely online and self-paced project management program builds successful project managers at all levels of the organization. It provides a comprehensive preparation for the CAPM® certification exam including exam-taking tips, 25 comprehensive module quizzes, and two full-length, 150-question practice exams covering the areas of interest from A Guide to the Project Management Body of Knowledge, (PMBOK® Guide), which will provide a report to help you determine your areas of weakness.
