Overview

In today’s competitive business world, just being a certified Project Management Professional is not enough to put you ahead of the crowd; what sets you apart is your ability to combine the theoretical aspects of your PMP® training together with the practical applications of MS Project and MS Excel. Effective implementation of the tools and techniques that are available in MS Project and Excel, in conjunction with the theoretical principles embodied in the PMBOK®, will go a long way towards ensuring all-round project success.

Before we proceed, please think about these questions for a moment:

  • Will you go to a Doctor who has a degree in MBBS, but does not know how to operate on a patient? - OR -
    Will you go to a Doctor who has operating experience and also has an MBBS degree?
  • Will you recruit a Java/J2EE Programmer who has a certification from Oracle on Java/J2EE, but does not know how to code in Java? - OR -
    Will you recruit a Java/J2EE programmer who has a Certification and also knows how to code based on practical knowledge?
  • Finally, will you recruit a Manager or a candidate for a Managerial role, who is a Certified PMP®, but does not know how to apply the principles of PMP® in a real world using management tools? - OR -
    Will you recruit a Manager who is a Certified PMP® and knows how to apply the Principles of PMBOK® in the real world with practical tools such as MS Project, MS Excel?

Welcome to the Real World!
In the real world, being a Certified PMP® is not enough. What people want from a Certified PMP® is the application of the principles of PMP® using a real time management tool such as MS Project, MS Excel and other such tools that can bring value to the organization. It is as important to be a Certified PMP® professional as it is to know how to apply the PMBOK® principles with MS Project.

FAQs

Study method describes the format in which the course will be delivered. At Reed Courses, courses are delivered in a number of ways, including online courses, where the course content can be accessed online remotely, and classroom courses, where courses are delivered in person at a classroom venue.

A regulated qualification is delivered by a learning institution which is regulated by a government body. In England, the government body which regulates courses is Ofqual. Ofqual regulated qualifications sit on the Regulated Qualifications Framework (RQF), which can help students understand how different qualifications in different fields compare to each other. The framework also helps students to understand what qualifications they need to progress towards a higher learning goal, such as a university degree or equivalent higher education award.

An endorsed course is a skills based course which has been checked over and approved by an independent awarding body. Endorsed courses are not regulated so do not result in a qualification - however, the student can usually purchase a certificate showing the awarding body's logo if they wish. Certain awarding bodies - such as Quality Licence Scheme and TQUK - have developed endorsement schemes as a way to help students select the best skills based courses for them.
