What's Unique about Our Training

You learn from a practicing project manager not an academic

Your individual instructor is a practicing project manager who works on projects for clients as well as teaching our students so they know the cutting-edge techniques.

Our courses are hands-on learning; you learn by doing it

We don't teach you theories and then give you multiple-choice tests. All our courses involve actually managing a project. You work with your instructor in live meeting simulations, presenting project plans and project schedules you have built in Microsoft Project®.

You get individual coaching; not a chat room with 120 other people

You can talk to your instructor whenever you wish without any limit.  You can also e-mail your instructor directly whenever you have a question. You'll always get an answer within 24 hours by phone or email.

Realistic case studies with videos; not silly academic exercises

Our case studies blend videos where you can see the executives whose questions you have to answer. In our live, real time simulations your instructor will play the role of the sponsor, stakeholders and your team members so that you can practice answering the kind of questions PMs are asked in the real world.

We have 25 years of experience specializing in training project managers

Our instructors and learning materials reflect the fact that we have been training project managers since 1986 and we know what works.

We write our own textbooks

We don't use theoretical academic textbooks. Our instructors have written 14 project management textbooks and each is a practical hands-on guide to the tools and techniques of project management. Our textbooks include software instructions and practical techniques for dealing with executives, stakeholders and your team members.

Practical coaching, not faculty who can’t answer real-world questions

You get a year of ongoing support from your instructor as you apply what you have learned to your real world projects and situations.  As you advance in project management, 4PM can provide training at every level from beginner to program manager.

You control the schedule & pace... take a year, not 60 days, to finish

Our courses do not have rigid scheduled times for lectures or tight time limits.  You can do your reading, listen to lectures and do assignments 24/7 from anywhere in the world. You can submit your assignments whenever it fits your schedule and you'll always get feedback from your personnel instructor within 24 hours. The only limitation is that you must finish your course within a year of enrolling.
