We offer a most experienced and highly qualified team of trainers, all experts recognized by their knowledge and competence in theinternational market. Holding the necessary qualifications coupled with a vast experience in the field, we contribute to the development andcontinuous improvement of knowledge and practice of Project Management and Business Analyses, including our participation in thedevelopment of the international standards of the Project Management Institute.
The quality of our training courses is proven at the international level meeting the quality standards of the most demanding markets. Thisquality is reflected not only in the contents of our courses but also in the experience of our trainers. Ranging from the United States, theUK, Germany, Benelux (NATO) and Australia, passing through South America, Asia and the African Continent, our courses and our trainershave always been very well received. It is this know-how and proven competence that we make available to all our clients.
All our courses are characterized by a strong orientation towards practical implementation in the field of the methodologies, techniques and
tools. We never separate theory from practice and we prime to assure that both elements the theoretical knowledge and practical
implementation are effectively integrated. This results not only from the fact that our trainers hold a large field experience, but also from the
fact that PMO Projects holds many years of consultancy experience in the the filed-adoption of project management best practices.
For those who are already PMP® certified by the Project Management Institute and wish to maintain this prestigious professional credential,our courses offer the necessary Professional Development Units (PDUs) required by the PMI. We note that the PDUs can only be gained byalready certified professionals and are not a requirement for the application to the PMP® certification exam. In case you have anyquestions or concerns regarding the PDU program do not hesitate to contact us.
Through our partnerships with highly prestigious academic institutions, our courses of Post-Graduation and Executive MBA offer you theECTS (European Credit Transfer System) credits that provide recognition and equivalence by any other higher education institution in theEuropean Union and in many other countries worldwide. Offering ECTS credits in our courses reflects the quality of our partnerships.
International associations certifying in the area of Project Management and Business Analyses demand candidates to hold in their curriculuma minimum of contact hours of educational activity. This is the case of the Project Management Institute that requires a minimum of contacthours for the application to the PMP® certification exam (we note that this requirement should not be mistaken with PDUs, which are aimedat professionals already holding the PMP® credential)
No arguments against facts: since 2001 we have been offering to the international market training in Project Management with a qualitythat has been consistently and recurrently evaluated over the years by our trainees: the objective statistics from the satisfaction surveys.The impact of our training in the field is also an objective fact: we are responsible for a vast majority of certified professionals in some ofthe markets where we offer our services.
