Haven't you seen the KPMG one-day sessions going for KSH69,990+VAT? That's about KSH280k+VAT= KSh325k in four days.

Training isn't cheap.
Nothing is real unless it can be named; nothing has value unless it can be sold; money is worthless unless you spend it.

Am interested in the PMP course, or other equivalents. Shida is that some of these 'courses' will be dismissed as seminars by HR dept;

Thats what they are. Ask the presenters to give you a list of successful projects that they have managed and you will be shocked that most have no real experiences.

Do you remember BPR? PMP is todays con word.

Mungaits,

Enda hapa http://www.cfpm.co.ke/

But as Kingfisher has advised, Project Management can only be mastered by....eeeh...MANAGING A PROJECT!

PMP - also need to be a PM to get the certification as hours need to be accredited. As @Wodu Wakiri has said, best thing is to MANAGE A PROJECT. There's the CAPM that can be a good start though

Am already practising PM but its been mostly on job learning and just felt maybe some thory would come in handy.

Have found out that PMP is offered by CFPM, anyone who has undertaken their course for some real life experience?

Cheers
