“I highly recommend Elaine's PMP certification study group course for anyone planning to take the PMP in order to advance their careers. The course is particularly helpful for those who need to retake the exam or whose jobs require that they be certified. The study group meets virtually via web meeting which is a hugely beneficial for working professionals! In addition, Elaine is extremely flexible and accommodating with participants. In addition, Elaine knows her stuff! The PMP isn't just about learning the material but also knowing HOW to take approach and tackle the test. The course is excellent for those who need a refreshers course in test taking skills. Elaine knows what study materials to recommend and will tailor sessions to fit YOUR needs. She's not going to sugar coat it. Elaine tells it like it is—which is both hard to find and welcomed. Elaine does everything in her ethical power to thoroughly prepare participants for the exam.” January 30, 2010

“As I read all of Elaine's recommendations, it is clear that the value that Elaine brought to me was exactly what she provided others. She committed to my professional growth as much as she would commit to a large corporate enterprise. She was creative, worked diligently to remove any of my roadblocks and was a huge support. I thoroughly enjoyed all of my interactions with her and one day, I hope to meet her personally, to thank her. Everyone needs to have Elaine on their team! Make sure she's in your court, too... you'll be so very glad you did. Thank you Elaine. --Carla” March 25, 2010
