All you have to do is listen...
Dear PMP® Student,
Are you frustrated because you are trying to
balance life, family, friends, work and on top of it all you need to
find the time to study for the challenging PMP® Exam? My name is
Cornelius Fichtner, PMP and I was in your shoes in 2004 when I was
preparing for my exam.
I had just started a new job, moved to a new
house and I had a tight budget to get ready for my PMP® Exam. There
wasn't a single product available that would make it easier for me. So
I created my own.
I passed my PMP® Exam in April 2004 and
since then I have given many PMP® classroom trainings. I was also
the 2007 president of my PMI® chapter. But most importantly, I am
the Host of The Project Management Podcast™, a show where I regularly
speak with project managers from all over the world. And now, all my
experience as a PMP® student, PMP® trainer, PMI® chapter
president and creator of The PM Podcast™ is packed and available to you
in The Project Management PrepCast™. Click here to
order it right now...
The PrepCast™ is the first and only 35
hour long PMP® Audio Workshop and we received fantastic
feedback from our students. I was jumping up and down with joy when the
first student wrote to me that he had used the PrepCast™ and passed the
PMP® Exam. His name is Duncan McIntyre, PMP, and he lives in
Canberra, Australia. Here is what he and two other students have to say
about the PrepCast™:
The
prepcast has been a great resource throughout my study. After
listening to your dulcet tones over the last few months, I've thought
about what you could do better - and there isn't much. The Prepcast is
excellent. One comment - I appreciate some of the more lively examples
you have used to illustrate your points and I'd say there are some
episodes where some more imaginative examples might help to keep the
listener's focus keen. Things like "I am thumbing through US$10000
right now and I could give it to you now or later" - when talking about
NPV, or "I went with the low cost gutters once I understood the
difference in price" - in select sellers. More of these creative
examples would enhance some podcasts and help the listener to remember
the material. Apart from that little piece of feedback, I'd say you
define quality in audio education!
- Duncan McIntyre, PMP
I
have used the PM PrepCast daily for the past month, I have to tell
you that this tool, in my opinion, is a must for anyone studying for
the exam who leads an active life (walking, jogging, biking, swimming…
okay, maybe it wouldn’t work so well while swimming) or finds
themselves with lots of “dead time” commuting or traveling. I
unfortunately spent a few hundred dollars on a PMP Prep DVD collection
from a particular company that didn’t even scratch the surface of what
I feel I will need to know in preparation to take the exam. Conversely,
the PM PrepCast covers the inputs, tools and techniques, and outputs of
each process in great detail with easy to understand examples, exam
tips, and even suggestions from those who have recently taken the exam
on how to best prepare!
If you
are considering taking the PMP certification exam, I highly recommend
subscribing to this podcast especially since there really aren’t any
other “pod-ready” PMP casts out there. I give this fine PrepCast a
rating of 5 out of 5 milestones.

play button to listen in on our interview with Ron. Learn how he
studied for and passed the exam.
- Ron Holohan, PMP
Yesterday
I started listening to your Premium PrepCast
and I could not wait to mail you a big THANK YOU. It really helps for a
textbook-phobia like me. :)
I listen to it while I exercise in the
evening and I must say that it turned to be very helpful. I like the
times when you ask the audience to guess the processes and other
things. Those interactions are things that challenge the thinking and
make me remain very active.
I will
be taking the exam in few months and I do wish that I can listen to all
9 Knowledge Areas and 5 Processes before that so I don't have to read
the textbook. Anyways, the PrepCast would still be useful when I take
up a new job where I will apply this knowledge. Thank you again and
wish you all the best.
- Ananya Vilaskhamphee, PMP
As you can
see from these student testimonials, the PrepCast™ is a fantastic study
tool that makes it very easy to get PMP® ready. It is the best

English and not the very difficult to understand
language from the PMBOK® Guide.

Concepts, based on student and expert feedback. These interviews
with experts translate the concepts into everyday project
management situations that you can relate to.

with our valuable PMP® Study
Tips.

Here is what You will Get
The
Premium Project Management PrepCast™ covers concepts, tools and
techniques you need to be familiar with to take the PMP®
Certification exam. We cover material in the PMBOK® Guide, and we
include the necessary models, theories and formulas not covered in the
Guide. Our episodes are interesting and engaging. We won’t bore you! We
help you understand these concepts instead
of memorizing them.
The podcast
consists of the following 89 episodes. Each averages 25 minutes length
and focuses on one concept or process. You can listen to them as often
as you like to enhance your understanding. Each Episode has a number
that allows for easy sorting in your MP3 player. The episodes in which
we discuss the Knowledge Areas from the PMBOK® Guide are numbered
following the Guide's chapter numbers. For instance all episodes on
Project Scope Management begin with the number 05. Here they are:

If you have
been looking for a good way to study for the PMP® Exam, then you
will have seen that companies who offer online and especially
in-classrom workshops will charge you several hundred dollars. The good
news is that we are not like them.
I will not charge you
hundreds of dollars for this
Do you
remember that I said earlier that I was on a tight budget, when I was
studying for the exam? Well, I still feel my pain from back then and I
decided that I did not want to charge hundreds of dollars for the
PrepCast™. Instead it has to be affordable for everyone. And because we
are a small company, because we don't have expensive phone support and
because we are offering the PrepCast™ as downloadable eWorkshop,
we
offer the PrepCast to you

Click here to order it right now...

that I did not want to just create a downloadlbe workshop. So I went
ahead and I added several Bonus Items on top of the PMP®
Podcast.
Bonus Item #1: Certificate

contact hours. We can. Two weeks after you begin listening to your
course, you can take our Final Exam, which you need to pass to get the
certificate. Take it whenever you want and as many times as you need.
And once you have your certificate you can sign up for the PMP®
Exam. No other PMP® Audio seminar can give you the certificate just
for listening. Look around the internet and you will quickly see that
in order to receive 35 contact hours elsewhere you will have to buy a
product will at least cost you two hundred dollars.
Bonus Item #2: 60
tough PMP® sample questions (Value $40)
These are not your straightforward PMP® sample questions that you
can find on any website. These are tough. And because they are tough,
you will find an explanation for each of the answers given. You will be
able to understand why the answer chosen is the correct one.
Bonus Item #3: 10
Steps to Becoming a PMP - Email Course (Value $30)
In this 10-part email course we take you step-by-step through the 10
most important activities on your road to becoming a PMP. With each
daily email you not only receive an in-depth discussion of today's
step, you also get a "Take Action" section. Here you will receive clear
assignments and to-dos. You also receive the necessary links to online
resources. This email course is invaluable for you as a PMP Aspirant.
Follow it and you will not forget anything on your way to becoming a
PMP.
Bonus Item #4: The
PMP® / CAPM® Exam Study Checklist (Value $15)

easy exam. It is a tough exam that requires your dedication and you
will have to study hard. But once you begin listening to the PrepCast™
I guarantee that your studies will be more enjoyable and
go smoother, faster but most of
all... they will be easier.

|
|
Even
better - you get to keep everything because there is no way that I
could ask you to "un-download" your episodes. So you could easily
download it now and then just ask for a refund. But I trust you and I
believe that you will not break the PMP® Code of Ethics and Professional Conduct in
such a way.
In fact
Pulkit Shah, PMP who listened to the PrepCast on a friend's computer,
was so satisfied with our online PMP® Workshop, that he decided to follow the PMP® Code
of Ethics and purchase it even
after he passed the exam. Here is
his testimonial:
I heard
your podcast as it was subscribed by one of my friends. I just appeared
for my PMP exam last week and I cleared it. I guess lot of credit for
my success goes to you. Even as I have already passed the exam, I
surely do feel that I should pay for the podcast, for I have used it.
So I am going to go ahead and make payment for it. Thanks for creating
this podcast. I am sure that this will help lot of people to become PMP.
- Pulkit
Shah, PMP
I believe
that his words and actions are the best testament for the exceptional
quality of our PMP® course.
