  Project Management Academy

  Aug 2012 - now

  Contract Trainer

  Project Management Academy is the finest educational organization I have ever had the opportunity to work with. They place the needs of the students above all else and are concerned more about them, rather than the money. This is why they will not cancel a class, even if it has one student! Their logistics are the best in the business, and rival that of a crack military unit. As an instructor, I get to focus more on teaching the material rather than worrying about the materials, the location or other logistical problems. They offer a money-back guarantee if you do not pass the PMP exam in three attempts, provide free-post-class tutoring, have a great referral program, and a TON of tools to help students with concepts, including mock exams and study aids on their website. They also have great instructors too! Show less
