PMI Certification Training Preparation Boot Camp by TONEX

This intensive boot camp will aid boot camp attendees in preparing for the PMP Certification exam. The five project management processes (Initiating, Planning, Executing, Controlling, and Closing) will be covered and cross-referenced to the nine knowledge areas (Scope, Time, Cost, Quality, Risk, Procurement, Human Resources, Communication, and Integration) of the Project Management Body of Knowledge (PMBOK). The course is structured around lecture, workshops, discussion, practice exams, tips and questions, as well as specific studying and preparation practices.

The Project Management curriculum is based on the general knowledge and practices of the Project Management Institute’s Guide to the Project Management Body of Knowledge (PMBOK)™.
