Why Us? (Short Version)

  • We are striving to maintain a 100% first-time pass rate, by following our Methodology*
  • We provide Money-Back Guarantee, for those who abide by our Methodology
  • We have comprehensive resources – 700+ slides in the bootcamp workbook, 1800+ questions, job aids, etc.
  • We are the one-stop shop for PMI project management certifications
  • For more reasons, see Why PMO Advisory? (Long Version).

Our Methodology

Short version: “Pass our Exam Simulator in Exam Mode at 85% two consecutive times within 7 days and take the test in 7 days”

Long version:

  1. Practice using our Exam Simulator in Flexible Mode
  2. Once you start to achieve 70%+, start using the Exam Mode when you have four hours. You may also wish to schedule the actual exam. Depending on your schedule, our recommendation is two weeks out.
  3. Within the next week, practice using the Exam Mode as often as you have time. You know you are ready when are able to achieve 75% or higher.
    • Everyone who had achieved 75% or higher in our Exam Simulator in Exam mode two consecutive times within the 7 days and takes the exam within the next 7 days actually never failed the exam.
    • But for the Money Back Guarantee to apply, as our “skin is in the game”, the threshold is set at 85%.

The 3 tops reasons to consider obtaining the PgMP Certification are:

  1. Natural Progression. Program management is a natural progression for experienced project managers. As you lead larger and multiple related projects with moving parts, you are embarking on the road toward program management.
  2. Competitive Differentiator. The PgMP certification is still rare, – there are only about 2,000+ in the world today, and this is over an 8 year period after the formal introduction of the certification. Certified program management professionals immediately command attention, in your company and at professional events.
  3. Career Growth. For up and coming project professionals, the shift from managing tactical projects to higher strategic initiatives is a vitally important move. The PgMP certification would further solidify your project management acumen and your readiness to tackle the next level of challenges.

About Program Management Certification: 

The Program Management Professional (PgMP) certification recognizes demonstrated experience, skill, and performance in the oversight of multiple, related projects that are aligned with organizational objectives.  The PgMP certification is designed for those who manage programs that contain complex activities spanning functions, organizations, geographic regions and cultures, who build credibility, establish rapport and maintain communication with stakeholders at multiple levels (including those external to the organization), and who possess advanced skills in finance, cross-cultural awareness, leadership, communication, influence, negotiation and conflict resolution.

PgMP is the next logical step in the career progression of a project manager. As successful project managers tackle increasingly larger and more complex projects, it will be inevitable that they start to manage a collection of these projects in a program. We believe the PgMP certification can help project professionals not only be more secure in their jobs and vocations, but also a step toward the formal recognition of their skills, experiences, capabilities, and importance to their organizations.

The PgMP exam is significantly more challenging than the PMP exam. Here’s why:

  • Program managers need to understand project management. For example, in the current standard for program management, the traditional project lifecycle is fully embedded.
  • Program managers need to have more advanced understanding of business benefits, which taps into the realm of portfolio management.
  • The exam itself is much more experienced based than PMP exam, and this simply memorizing inputs, outputs, tools, and techniques would not suffice.

If you want to join this rather exclusive club of about 3,000 professionals, then PgMP credential is the clear choice.

Overview of PgMP Certification:

PgMP certification candidates must meet some advanced requirements to earn the designation. To qualify for the PgMP credential, candidates must have one of the following sets of education and experience:

  • A secondary degree (high school diploma, associate degree or global equivalent), with a minimum of four years of project management experience and seven years of program management experience
  • A four-year degree (bachelor’s degree or global equivalent), with a minimum of four years of project management experience and four years of program management experience

If a candidate meets one of the above requirements, they can proceed to the next step of the PgMP application process, known as the Panel Review. In this phase, a panel of certified program managers reviews the candidate’s application and performs an assessment of the candidate’s professional experience.

PMI provides detailed information about the application process that candidates can refer to when creating their applications. For more information about the PgMP application process, visit the PgMP page on the PMI website.

Candidates who make it past the Panel Review must then pass the PgMP certification exam.

Program Management Details

The Project Management Institute introduced the PgMP credential in 2007, and it was designed and positioned as “the gold standard”. The market adoption and the rate of certificates awarded were slow at first mainly due to the Multi-Rater Assessment. For example, when our CEO and Founder, Dr. Te Wu, became a Program Management Professional in 2010, there was about 580 certificate holders. But when PMI simplified the process and eliminated the Multi-Rater Assessment in 2012, the rate of adoption has been increasing rapidly. Today, there are over 4,500 certificate holders.

Program management is vitally important. Anecdotal evidence and our consulting experiences repeatedly demonstrated the value of this discipline. Arguably, every organization with a relative intense project environment, program management should be one of the key tools for managing business execution. With the success of strategy implementation hovering at the dismal 10%, adopting program management approach manage=ubg large-scale change can significant move that needle positively.

PMO Advisory’s philosophy is to provide high-quality training. We adopted best-in-class content and enhance them with additional internal development. Our PgMP course provides comprehensive content and eLearning. We then developed a large test bank of over 1,800 questions. We also follow the PMI progress closely as our CEO is a volunteer at global and chapter level. In the recent years, he served on multiple standard committees as core members including Portfolio Management and Risk Management.

PgMP Certification Exam Details

Candidates must take the PgMP certification exam within twelve months of passing the PMI Panel Review phase. The exam consists of 150 multiple-choice questions and lasts four hours. Candidates may not bring any materials into the examination room, but they are provided with either blank paper and pencils or a marker board and markers.

Here is a breakdown of the major knowledge domains covered by the PgMP exam, with an approximate percentage of how many questions are dedicated to each domain:

  • Strategic Program Management (15 percent)
  • Program Life Cycle (44 percent)
  • Benefits Management (11 percent)
  • Stakeholder Management (16 percent)
  • Governance (14 percent)

Candidates who do not pass the PgMP exam on their first attempt may retake the exam up to two more times in the one-year qualification period. Candidates who do not pass the exam after three attempts must wait twelve months from the last exam attempt before reapplying for the PgMP.

About Live Virtual or Intelicamp (The Short Read)

Today, working professionals are busier than ever. Worse, their ability to concentrate for a long period is disrupted by a million things at work and home – making traditional learning less effective for some people.  PMO Advisory has developed an “intelligent bootcamp,” or the Intelicamp, to provide an optimal approach to learning. At the heart of it, the Intelicamp is designed to address the five key differences in how professional adults learn. These include:

  1. Purposeful – Professionals are focused on a particular purpose and outcome
  2. Experience – By definition experienced, professionals are experienced and knowledgeable. This needs to be considered within the training design and delivery.
  3. Measurable – Professionals want clear feedback and knowing that they are making progress
  4. Value of Time – Time is the most precious commodity for professionals. They need trusted sources for Q&A and not waste time researching. They also are busy – making it difficult to carve out a day or multiple days, especially consecutive days, to study.
  5. Limited Attention Span – To optimize learning, most adults also require multi-modals of learning – a blended learning environment to maximize the effectiveness of learning.

We designed our Intelicamps to address these principles and optimally deliver the boot camp materials.  All Intelicamps are focused (e.g., on passing the certification exam) and modular, commonly at three sessions of 4 hours each. We only use highly qualified instructors who are certified experts in their fields.  Intelicamp is blended learning, combining the best of expert-led in a live real-time environment to answer questions with eLearning and large practice exams and exam simulators.

Collectively, PMO Advisory has achieved and is sustaining a 100% pass rate on the first attempt across our certification boot camps for those that follow our simple methodology. And the methodology is quite simple: pass our exam simulator at 85% two consecutive times within 7 days and take the actual exam in a week.

For more information, click here for “The Big Read” on how our Intelicamp works.

About Ultra Live Virtual

We designed the Ultra Live Virtual (uLV) courses to meet the changing post pandemic landscape.  The uLV is designed to find the optimal point of value for most professionals.  Here are the key features of the uLV courses:

  1. Blending – The uLV is a blended course between the Intelicamp (live virtual) and pre-recorded class. It balances the real-time interactions (about 4 hours) with the flexibility of eLearning. This way, the scheduling is much easier (4 hrs vs. 12 hrs) but participants continue to have meaningful face-time with the instructors.
  2. Interactive – As with any focused meetings, participants are more prepared with questions. Thus making the sessions more interactive.
  3. Cost Effective – We also price this new course series aggressively, finding a happy mid-point between the more expensive Intelicamp and the less expensive Pre-Recorded.  The uLV has all the key features of the more expensive modalities including the workbook.

What is a Authorized Training Partner ?

PMO Advisory is a ATP #4172.  PMI ATPs are organizations that are approved by the Project Management Institute to offer training in project management and issue professional development units (PDUs) to meet the continuing education requirements needed by PMI credential holders. To earn the ATP designation, a provider must meet or exceed rigorous standards for quality and effectiveness as defined by PMI. When it comes to Portfolio, Program, or Project Management training it’s sensible and prudent to make sure the training firm is a PMI ATP.   There is a difference!

Program Management Onsite & Custom Solution for Institutional Clients

For our business and institutional clients, we offer onsite training at the client location. The course can be customized between 2 to 5 days. Two days are generally designed as accelerated instructions for experienced professionals, and five day courses offer more time for exercises. Our general recommendation is 3 or 4 days.

  • Three Day – This is an accelerated program designed for experienced project management professionals. If your organization has strong program managers who have limited time, this is the most effective course.
  • Four Days – This is the best course for most organization, and it is usually our recommendation. Beyond the Three Day, which is very fast paced, this course provides more time for reviewing key concepts, practicing sample tests and conducting Q&A.
  • Five Days – This is an extended course for organizations and professionals who wish to spend more time on tools, techniques, and templates. This course is more than just passing the exam.

All the programs includes the following:

  • Free attendance at any of our public courses – classroom or live virtual
  • Full access to online PgMP practice exam for up to a year for our course participants ($200 value if purchased separately)
  • Latest content on certification preparation including latest war stories from people who has passed the exam
  • Free exam aids and other course content
  • Most importantly, assuming you do your share of studying, you will have unlimited access to above for up to a year.

As a discipline, project management is both “deep” and “broad”. It is deep because project execution is managed at a detailed level; this means effective project managers must go beyond the knowledge in PMBOK® Guide – Sixth Edition and the other standards. Project management is also broad because it is a “meta-discipline” covering many areas of management including leadership, organizational behavior, organization change, to name just a few. PMO Advisory can customize a longer program for organizations that seek to substantially improve their project, program, and portfolio management acumen.

PMO Advisory is one of the few firms that can offer training in Organizational Project Management spanning across project, program, portfolio, risk, agile, and Project Management Office. Please contact us with your detailed requirements and let us astonish you with what we can provide.
