PMI - PMP Certification - Exam Track

You can choose to prepare for, and test in, either the PMP or CAPM exam:

The PMP exam consists of 200 multiple-choice questions, of which 25 are considered pretest questions. Pre-test questions are randomly placed throughout the exam and do not affect the candidate's score. They are used in examinations as an effective and legitimate way to increase the number of future examination questions. The allotted time to complete the examination is four hours. The four-hour examination is preceded by a 15-minute computer tutorial, which is not part of the allotted four hours
Upon registering for a course, a Firebrand Training customer service representative will guide you through the examination enrollment process. Once your application has been processed, if eligible, you will receive an eligibility letter (via e-mail) directly from the Project Management Institute. Test candidates have one (1) year from the date their application is approved and processed to take the examination. This date is printed at the top of the first page of the candidate's eligibility letter. Candidates may take the exam a maximum of three times within their eligibility period
PMP candidates who pass the exam may use the credential as long as they comply with the Continuing Certification Requirements (CCR) program. The CCR program supports PMPs in developing their professional knowledge and maintaining their credentials by requiring participation in activities during the CCR cycle, which are assigned a PDU value
The CAPM exam is a 3 hour multiple choice exam consisting of 150 questions

Attention: the examination fee is not included in the course costs

About the 35 contact hours

Candidates have to document 35 contact hours of project management education/training. One contact hour is equal to one hour of participation in an educational activity. These hours must be related to project management and can include content on project quality, scope, time, cost, human resources, communications, risk, procurement, or integration management. Courses, workshops and training sessions in one or more of the following categories satisfy the education requirement:

Candidates will require the 35 Contact Hours prior to registering for eligibility to sit the exam, to be able to sit the exam during the course it will be necessary to register and gain PMI eligibility prior to attendance

We interview all applicants for the course on their technical background, degrees and certifications held, and general suitability. If you get through this screening process, it means you stand a great chance of passing.

Firebrand Training is an immersive training environment. You must be committed to the course. The above prerequisites are guidelines, but many students with less experience have other background or traits that have enabled their success in accelerated training through Firebrand Training.

"I was looking for an intensive PMP course that did not require many hours of pre-study. I found this at Firebrand* and was not disappointed. Instructor was great especially when considering how dry a subject PMP can be. This course will task you and should not be taken lightly, however it does exactly as advertised and I achived my key goal of passing the exam at the end."
Mike Young, DATAELM Ltd.
PMI Project Management Professional (5 Days) (2/4/2007 to 6/4/2007)

"The PMP course was the most intensive learning experience I have ever encountered. Be prepared for long days (and nights!!) as this is a "cramming" course designed to get you through the PMP exam. The course itself is well designed to get you through the exam and the tutor was a knowledgable project manager who was well versed in the way PMI set their questions. I put in the work from Sunday through Thursday and passed the exam on Friday. Many thanks to Firebrand for organising a great venue at Eynsham Hall and to Geoff Filbey for his help and guidance in passing the exam. Based on this experience I will certainly treat Firebrand as my initial reference point when considering future training requirements."
AC, Bristol-Myers Squibb.

Tomas Westerhus, Acando AS.
PMI Project Management Professional (5 Days) (21/1/2008 to 25/1/2008)

"The first three days were primarily theory based and this required a lot of reading. Day 4 was really useful, as it was a mock exam. This was great preparation for the exam on Friday.
