Core Project Management Courses

The unique thing about the training from OnlinePMCourses is that you can interact with your trainer. This isn’t a study-in-isolation type programme, although of course you can do that if it suits your learning style. Mike is committed to giving you the support you need to make the course a success, so he has included a comments section in every module of the course. Ask your question and he’ll get back to you.

The videos are very short and the content is structured in a logical way that enables you to dip into whatever you need advice on at the time (that goes for all the courses that have video).

I like how the content builds, and there are decent upgrade paths too, so if you want to take a more in depth course you aren’t financially worse off than if you had just chosen that one first.

This course has Dr. Mike Clayton, project management author, as the instructor who is in the course to answer any questions you may have. The course is made up of 13 hours of video content and 50 ready-to-use templates which takes you through every process, skill, and technique needed for project management.

The main reasons to buy this course are that it is easy to navigate; broken into very manageable "chunks" that can be completed over time as you can get online and do them (short periods of time); very accessible, understandable, makes the PM jargon easier to grasp for those of us not embroiled in super complex PM organizations (like me in the small nonprofit world!); Mike is engaging and interesting AND he knows his PM stuff!!

What made this course valuable was LOTS of information that will help me translate PM for our team as we roll out a culture shift that will include embedding PM practices into the operations of our programs...a tall order for a small nonprofit operation more used to the "fly by the seat of the pants" approach to PM!

I'd recommend this course to EVERYONE who does any kind of project management in their work life...

Very user friendly, accessible, and understandable in a way that some of the other PM education I have engaged in has not been. Less "jargony" and more practical.

It's given me new perspectives/understanding of familiar topic areas; information I can share in new ways with others I am training in PM skills

I'd recommend this course to anyone interested in learning PM skills whether they aspire to getting the PMP certification or not.

Mike covers all the key topics a project manager needs to know in his Skills Mastery Program and it's clear throughout the course that Mike not only understands the theory, but also what works practically and offers tips, tricks and pitfalls to watch, that only an experienced practitioner knows. I would recommend this course to anyone looking to grasp the key concepts of good project management.

The best thing about The Project Manager’s Skills Mastery Program is its logical structure. This goes all the way through from being given a project to project closure. What’s more you will be able to do it with your own projects which is the key to the way Mike Clayton has put it together.

So, I say: 'Invest, invest invest!' You get nothing by not investing in yourself and the return on investment will be multiplied many times over.

I appreciated you PM fundamentals video course both as a refresher and as a more systematic approach to PM.

Videos 2 and 3 helped me to identify issues that I had overlooked. I felt that the videos were clear and as specific as a free introductory course could be.

I recommend this to anyone who needs to oversee a project, whether simple or complex. The principles that your fundamentals course outlines apply to virtually any discipline or activity. Thank you for making them freely available.

You have have skilfully used analogies and mental pictures together with clear illustrations to explain tough managements concepts. I should congratulate you for the great effort you put to produce the quality course which I think is second to none.

This course is a very good foundation for the project management. It presented all aspects which should be considered in project management, and full project life cycle - what is very important to understand. Well structured project fundamentals - I like the heart-shaped project cycle

I would recommend this course to: - people who are considering to be a project manager - they need to know, how many aspects there are in project management - this helps them to make a decision if they would like to be in this role - people who are project managers with 1 or 3 years of experience - they can sort out the knowledge they already have and find out where the improvement is needed

If someone were thinking of buying this course, I would tell her she is about making a very good decision because the presentation of topics is very good.

These courses have helped me to better understand Project management principles

I would recommend this course to my colleagues who are aspiring PMPs because the course will prepare them for the examination and also make them better project managers

If you are considering buying this course... Do it! You will learn lots and benefit massively.

Before joining this course, I only learned about project management through work experience. As a result of taking this course, I have a better understanding of how things should work. And I like the ability to learn at my own pace. I'd recommend this course to any of my friends who want to also get into project management as it will help them to get to the next level.

I'm always a bit skeptical about online courses. I am really enjoying the pace and the content. Each section is easy to grasp, take notes and reflect on.

Also, I enjoy the fact that I'm learning from your wealth of experience and not someone regurgitating the PMBOK. I appreciate your passion of the craft.
