To all the PM's out there.

Any recommendations on which classes or courses to attend? Aside form the obvious, read a book?

Cheers

My GF is in the process of getting her PMP. I know she signed up for some classes online @ Coursera.org. They were developed by UC Irvine. I don't know if they cover all of the material, however.

Greetings from New Orleans,
Has anyone taken the course by Project Management Academy - PMP® Certification Training Irvine? It's a 4 days virtual eLearning classroom. They seem to have PMP Training Discounts for unemployed, but I'm not sure how this all works. Or any other inexpensive alternatives? I would really ppreciate any feedback from you guys. Thank you beforehand.

I'm pretty sure that's who offered the course I took but I took it in Denver in person. I imagine its all about the quality of the instructor as much as anything. So do some research on who is do the training. Aside from that PMA offers a good course.

That said, the PM job has been so watered down the past decade or so that it's not as valuable as it used to be. I see people offering 65k a year salaries all the time and I just laugh at them.

I would consider what field you're going to be in before spending money on a PMP. If you're going to work in software development, I wouldn't bother with a PMP. Unless the company you're at is waterfall and in that case I would get another job.

I got my PMP about 7 years ago. I used Rita Mulcahy's PMP Exam Prep Book, along with an in-person class from Alamo PMI in San Antonio.

Thanks

Now I am working on one complex IT project, and I need good and intelligent specialists. It was necessary to find very good workers and get it done quickly. The site outsourcing software development in ukraine helped me with this. It presents a huge base of employees who will take on any IT work. Thanks to this site, I quickly found the one I needed and got down to work. I advise.
