Yes. The Project Management PrepCast™ offers over 35 hours of quality PMP® Exam video and audio training and you will receive a 35 Contact Hour certificate after you pass a test. Here is how this works:

  • Two weeks after you purchase The Premium PrepCast™ you will find Episode 99.00 in your podcast list.
  • Check your iTunes and locate the episode.
  • This episode contains a PDF document with instructions on how to take our "Final Exam".
  • This Final Exam is an online 25 question, multiple choice exam.
  • You will need to answer 17 questions correctly in order to pass the exam.

Now you can print your certificate. There are two more things to say about the final exam:

  • There is no time limit - you can take the Final Exam today or in 1 year.
  • You can take the exam several times if you do not pass at first

Marilou,

Yes. You can download The PM PrepCast both at work and at home. However, please note that many large companies have strong firewalls in place and they may not allow you to download videos as a policy. The best approach is to download the PrepCast at home and then copy the files onto your smart phone (Android, iPhone, etc.) and carry the videos with you.

I want to purchase Project Management Prepcast via credit card (As this is the only way to purchase mentioned on website) but I don’t have my credit card so a friend of mine will help me to buy from his card. While filling out the purchase form, it requires to mention Name, Email, card number & other information. I want to know that this package includes 35 PDUSs certificate & obviously it will print out the same name who name is written on credit card. So plz suggest.

Umar,

Yes, your friend can buy the PrepCast for you. Here is the process to follow: http://www.pmhelpdesk.com/entries/96913-can-a-friend-buy-the-pm-pre...

Before you print the certificate for the 35 contact hours the system will ask you for the name to print, so that you can change it.

Mohamed - I'm sorry about the misunderstanding. The "Gift Certificate" box on the order page is there to receive a discount. It has nothing to do with the 35 Contact Hour certificate. Please leave this field empty when ordering unless you have been given a discount code.
