This forum is moderated, so please read the rules before posting.

You don't have to take anything personal on this forum. Anyone who seeks information about the PMP exam should first visit www.pmi.org for the most accurate information. The PMBoK is $40 per copy and should not be distributed free on the internet. Of course you can get a free copy from PMI if you become a member. You are not supposed to give it out. It is illegal and we should desist from such acts. If you want to contest this fact, please visit the PMI website.

Not too long ago, CNN aired a special report titled "How to rob a Bank" where they featured how nigerians are fraudulent and dubious. We do not want to prove them right by using the internet to propagate illegal acts.

Project Management is new in Nigeria and we want it to grow and we do not want to be label as fraudulent. Integrity, honesty and uprightness are some of the qualities of a good project manager. There is a section on the exam that is specifically on professional responsibility.

Hello All,
I read a posting by bebe4 who claims to have attended training at ProConsult.  If that is true then he/she would know all the info he/she needs to know to take the exam.  I am a principal instructor with ProConsult and our prices are the lowest for a PMI Registered Education Provider.  For your hours to be accepted by PMI for approval to take the PMP exam, you must have at least 3 years of Project Management experience and 35 hours of formal project management training from a PMI registered education provider.  It is not enough that the teacher has PMP.  The company must be accredited by PMI. You can visit our website at www.proconsult-llc.com
We just started a weekend school and a special promotion for project management training in Lagos. Buy one course get another course of equal or lesser price free, or you can buy a course and bring someone for free.  If you need more info on our specials, please email ade@proconsult-llc.com or nola@proconsult-llc.com.
Generally, across the world, the training is expensive because it is intellectual knowledge you are purchasig that will enhance your career and ultimately your life.  We must be willing to pay for self development and career advancement.  The courses are cheaper in Nigeria than in any other part of the world. If you travel abroad, you have to buy a ticket and stay in a hotel, plus the courses are moe expensive overseas. 


PMI representatives are now looking at this forum and may tighten their requirements for Nigerians if care is not taken. We must be careful not give misleading information or make fraudulent claims because PMi will then start to scrutinize Nigerian applicants more to prevent fraud.

What materials are you interested in? PMP or Prince 2? If you are thinking of sitting for the PMP exam, you can study on your own, but you will not be able to take the exam. You need 35 hours of formal project management training. We offer that training in Lagos Nigeria and we are coming to Lagos again in April. Check out our website at www.proconsult-llc.com for more information. you can also do a search on www. pmi.org. We offer a lot of study and training materials with our courses.
send me an email at nola@proconsult-llc.com for more information.

I have been a project manager for over 15 years in the US and I am PMP certified. I have helped several people to become PMP certified at the first try. I am in partnership in a company and we train on project management. We are accredited by the Project Management Institute. You can visit www.pmi.org and search for ProConsult, LLC. We are based in Maryland but we have an office in Lagos. We have been to Nigeria a few times to train. You may have seen our ads in the paper, particularly The Guardian. Please visit our website at www.proconsult-llc.com.
If you need more information about our courses and calendar for the year, please email me at nola@proconsult-llc.com and I will respond to your email.
PMP is more internationally accepted than Prince2. Prince2 is used in the United Kingdom but PMP is used anywhere in the world. There is a great demand for PMP certified professionals right now. Just do a search on www.hotjobs.com and you will find at least 30,000 entries. There is a high demand for PMP even in Nigeria. ProConsult will be offering classes in April, May and June in Lagos, Nigeria. Visit our website regularly for current information.
We offer a lot of reading materials and past questions with our courses.
By the way, Microsoft Project is simply a tool that is used to manage projects. You must have a basic knowledge of project management in order to be able to use the tool the way it was intended to be used. Artemis is rather technical and is used mainly in the engineering field. You need more than a basic knowledge of project management for this tool. It is not commonly used anywhere even in the US. As a matter of fact, I implemented Artemis for TeleCheck/First Data Corporation in 2000.
