(PMP) Project Management Professional

The ILX PMP e-learning is based on the PMBOK® Guide. Students view and review e-learning sessions, complete a range of interactive exercises in each session and test themselves with a range of multiple choice format questions. These questions are based on typical questions in the PMP examination.

The course is highly interactive and engaging, containing animation and narration throughout. Built using ILX's proven development approach, the course breaks down the Project Management Institute, A Guide to the Project Management Body of Knowledge, (PMBOK® Guide) Fifth Edition into easily digested sessions, which align with each of the PMBOK® Guideknowledge areas.

Also, need to access content on the go? No problem ILX, the global Best Practice learning company, has launched the ‘ILX Player App’ to allow mobile access to a broad range of ILX’s e-Learning courses. A video can be found at the end of this page with the details.

The new App provides users with video content which actively supports online learning across all our ELearning portfolio.

How does the App work? Anybody can download the app for free, and those registered for ILX’s e-Learning courses will be able to access these courses via the App at no extra charge. The App provides a quick and easy access to downloadable video content on tablet or phone devices.

Course content is stored locally on the user device so once it’s downloaded someone can study anywhere without the need for an internet connection. This is ideal for those commuting or located in areas where internet reception may be poor. Users of the App can also switch between devices and pick up the video content where they last left the frame. Progress information and time spent on each session is also sent back to the main ILX portal so that your course progress can monitor and updated.

Each session contains lots of real life examples helping learners to apply the theory. The course includes a wealth of interaction including, exercises and puzzles to help develop practical application and assist with knowledge retention. Learners are introduced to ILX's virtual classmates; a group of animated characters who help explore some of the PMBOK® Guidemore complex concepts. Each session also includes numerous multiple choice questions to test the users understanding.

This is not simply an exam crammer, but provides a comprehensive insight into the world of projects and project management. After completing this course, learners will have a much greater understanding and will be well prepared to sit the PMP® examination.

The course consists of 27 separate sessions, totalling some 400 plus pages of content. The actual study time is approximately 35 hours - 40 hours.
