Project Management Training Online Adds CAPM Prep Training

Mendham, New Jersey—April 27, 2007 — Project Management Training Online – pmtrainingonline.com - announced today that it is now offering a new bundle of web-based CAPM exam prep courses specifically geared to CAPM candidates that are required by the PMI to take 23 contact hours of project management training. The bundle includes 13 online courses which provide a broad coverage of PMBOK-based project management fundamentals as required for the CAPM exam. Project Management Training Online - www.pmtrainingonline.com - provides one of the most extensive offerings of online training courses focused on professional project management that can be found on the internet.

According to John Reiling, PE, MBA, PMP, President of Project Management Training Online, “Aspiring Project Managers have the opportunity to move their career positively toward their goals by earning the Certified Associate in Project Management (CAPM). Those who want to earn the CAPM face 3 challenges: 1. qualifying to take the exam (1500 hours project management experience, or 23 hours project management training), 2. obtaining broad-based, in depth training in project management principles, and 3. passing the exam. Our new “CAPM Prep 23 Hour Special” course bundle provides at least part of the answer to all three, and at a very reasonable price. We believe that learning project management skills takes time, effort, repetition - and reading, studying, or listening from a variety of sources. With the “CAPM Prep 23 Hour Special” bundle of courses, coupled with other options, including “CAPM® Exam Success Series: Exam Simulation”, students will readily earn 23 contact hours of pm training (if required), get some good, solid, repeatable project management training, and build background knowledge that will directly help them on the CAPM exam. Our PMP prep offerings provide more training hours, but as an alternative, many students will find that this “CAPM Prep 23 Hour Special” fits their needs perfectly.”

Consistent with its mission of providing the best training materials to project managers, Project Management Training Online provides this bundle of Mindleaders and Skillsoft online courses as a complement to the many courses and bundles that are already offered. All of these online courses provide a rich interactive experience for developing an understanding of all project management knowledge areas and project management processes. The bundle consists of “An Introduction to Project Management” (1 course, 2.5 contact hours/PDUs) and “Project Management Series” (12 courses, 22 contact hours/PDUs).

The “Project Management Series" provides a detailed examination of project management concepts and strategies. It discusses the seven components of a management system and the five phases of the project life cycle, and looks at factors that affect cost and quality. The project manager's role is explored in detail, and strategies for defining the project are examined. Tasks such as developing the Work Breakdown Structure, estimating and scheduling resources, scheduling computations, and tracking project activities are discussed. The close-out phase of a project is also covered. Other topics include formalizing project management standards, developing a project team, and strategies for becoming a more effective project manager.

As an alternative add-on, The “Project Management Professional Certification 2005 Series” (12 contact hours/PDUs) complements the Project Management Body of Knowledge (PMBOK) in preparing a learner for the Project Management Professional (PMP) certification exam or Certified Associate in Project Management (CAPM) exam. This series will provide the learner with an understanding of the exams and how the Project Management Institute (PMI) views the topical areas associated with the initiation, planning, execution, monitoring and control, and closeout of projects.
