Sample training plan: 5-day hands-on design
This five-day bootcamp prepares project managers for the PMP exam by making them practise the work, not just memorise it. Participants run one simulated project across the week: a new customer portal for a regional bank. They write its charter, map stakeholders, build a schedule and budget, choose predictive, adaptive or hybrid approaches, lead a team through conflict and handle change requests and risks as they arrive. Every day ends with timed scenario questions, and day five includes a full-length practice exam and a personal study plan.
Participants can explain how projects serve strategy, choose a delivery approach and start a project with a sound charter and stakeholder map.
