It suits senior programme managers, PMO heads, directors of delivery and transformation leaders with substantial programme experience.

    Is PMP required before I take the PgMP?

    You are allowed up to three attempts within your one-year eligibility period. Re-examination fees apply to the second and third attempts; confirm current amounts on the PMI store. Our prep and mock exams are designed to build readiness before you sit.

    The training covers the five performance domains: Strategic Program Management, Program Life Cycle Management, Benefits Management, Stakeholder Engagement and Governance, plus guidance on the PgMP application, panel review and exam strategy.

    Do I need prior experience to benefit from this course?

    The training is built for experienced professionals. Anyone can attend, but to earn the PgMP, PMI requires substantial project and programme management experience. Our trainers help you map your experience to the eligibility sets and application.

    Is the courseware aligned with the current PgMP standard?

    Yes. The courseware is aligned to PMI's Standard for Program Management, 4th Edition, and the current PgMP Examination Content Outline, so what you study matches what the exam assesses.
