PMP-PGCAPM Testmonials

Pursuing the PGC-APM course at S.P.Jain. Mumbai has been an extremely rewarding and intellectually satisfying experience for me. The course material provided, case studies and classroom interactions certainly helped in adding to my management knowledge. The curriculum is an interesting mix of classroom studies and discussions, assignments and the dissertation that ensured the continuity of learning throughout the six month period even when I was out of classroom.
In addition to the teaching methodology, the ‘beyond the classroom’ interaction with the faculties and batch-mates from different domains was the key take-away for me from the course that helped me understand the application of management in sectors other than my own. Finally, if not for the flexibility of the entire course wherein the classes were held at weekends and the fact that I was graciously allowed by the institute to take the final examination and viva online, it would not have been possible for me to successfully juggle between the job at Delhi and the course at Mumbai. All in all, it has been a thoroughly challenging yet engaging experience and I am happy I made the decision to pursue this course at this stage of my career.   

I would describe the PGC-APMexperience as exciting and dynamic.I was initially drawn here owing to the faculty profiles, SPJIMR’s reputation, and my own career goals.The journey of PGC-APMgave me an armory of skills with an honors grade, besides developingin me the confidence that I am equipped with the best of knowledge and proficiency, which isthe ultimate confidence booster.
The course content is relevant and teaching methodology combine theoretical knowledge and practical application. Case studies, assignments and above all dissertation helped in clarification of concepts and setting a strong base for overall learning.Besides it is extremely useful in my field of work, as project management skills form a strong foundation for any healthcare system. I am especially grateful and appreciative of the guidance provided by Prof Prabhakaran and Prof Vanita Bhoola.

I completed my PGC-APM certification with honors grade. This is a well-designed learning program taught by highly skilled team of professors and covers all the aspects of practical project management. This was matchless learning experience. I would like to thank entire team of professors for sharing their knowledge and experience with us and special thanks to Prof. Prabhakaran and Prof. Vanita for their guidance and co-operation in completing the all the assignments.”

One of the most interesting part of the course was Interactions with the class mates from different fields, different background  and knowing their  project management practices.I am really thankful to the entire Project Management Team for organising such a specialized course which is a need of time.”

An intensive course which was run by a very competent team of excellent professors who made an incredibly dry topic easier to learn. Lots of real life experience were shared in the classroom which enabled the class of students to gel and work well together. The simulation exercises were great. Interaction with faculty and receiving their inputs was very enlightening. You could feel that all the Professors had put in their best in creating a didactic atmosphere that was both relaxing and academically strong. Success in obtaining the certification was just a natural outcome. I would be saying the same even if I had not obtained my PGC-APM certification

In addition to the teaching methodology, the ‘beyond the classroom’ interaction with the faculties and batch-mates from different domains was the key take-away for me from the course that helped me understand the application of management in sectors other than my own. Finally, if not for the flexibility of the entire course wherein the classes were held at weekends and the fact that I was graciously allowed by the institute to take the final examination and viva online, it would not have been possible for me to successfully juggle between the job at Delhi and the course at Mumbai. All in all, it has been a thoroughly challenging yet engaging experience and I am happy I made the decision to pursue this course at this stage of my career.

I attended the weekend PMP Contact classes organised by SPJIMR PMP. It proved to be a good decision as I was able to benefit from the professional lectures on Project Management from the best in industry. Also, the mix of peers in the classroom was great in terms of diversity and that led to great brainstorming on PMP scenarios and added quality as well as fun. Special thanks to Tejal for all the coordination and bringing us the quality learning experience !!

A pleasure to attend the PMP Exam Prep Course at SPJIM, was apprehensive about the course and the exam at the start as has lost the touch to study, but by the time the course ended I am confident to crack the PMP and also the design of the course if very good. Please do not attend this with an expectation to master Project Management or get deep into PMP tools and techniques, this is specifically designed to target the PMP for working professionals.With your work experience and this course you can crack PMP in 3 months flat.

The program was well prepared and ensured that we learned the material, not just memorized it. The class was structured in such a way that I was able to concentrate throughout the sessions. The way professors have explained the real life project management situations & showcased the actual Project management tools was phenomenal. Overall the course filtered out the most important information from the PMBOK, which helped me to better understand project management, and improved my ability to study for the PMP Exam. The course was well organized and structured towards achieving PMP certification & helped me to increase my confidence level to pass this exam in first attempt. Finally on the D-day, I just walked out of Prometric with my shiny new PMP designation. Thanks SPJIMR once again J !!

I found faculty quite impressive. Each one was expert in their knowledge area and in teaching.I was able to build a solid foundation with the knowledge they imparted, which helped me ultimately pass the exam.

I am highly thankful to SP Jain for helping me out to gauge the performance before attempting actual PMP® exam. I would like to pay my special thanks to all the professors for their case study based approach of teaching PMP® and motivation to clear the exam in first attempt.

When you need to understand project management principles, methodology, processes and so on....SPJain lives upto its reputation. It has not only given us an extra edge to manage projects, but made our understanding crystal clear in all the aspects. One stop when you need to prepare for your PMP® exams

SPJIMR designed and delivered a Project Management program for KEC International. The entire program was created as a case study taking data from one of our old projects. This customization was done for every business vertical. This made the program relevant & easy to comprehend by the participants. SPJIMR has a strong expertise in project management consulting & training.

"A pleasure to attend PMP prep programme @SPJIMR. Well thought out, designed & planned program. Highly experienced professors and faculty. The Programme is truly designed for working professionals. Many practical examples, case studies, quiz and hands-on activities. All staff are very professional. This programme has given me new directions to think on how to execute project management activities more effectively and efficiently. Normally, as project managers, we plan and execute projects but often we face problems related to budget overshoot, delayed timeline, scope creep. But, after participating in the PMP prep programme @SPJIMR, I learnt many methods/tools/techniques by which we can have control over budget, time & scope. I am confident now to clear PMP in the 2 months time-frame after having good insight and exposure on all project management processes."

"Special thanks to all professors @SPJIMR to have this program very well designed & executed."

Wonderful course with wonderful faculty. Designed to cover the entire course in a simple and systematic way. It was a very good 4 days of learning experience and gives me confidence to appear for the exam soon. Also inspired me to do the Agile Certification in the near future with SPJIMR. All the faculty members wonderful and inspiring.
