Are you studying for the PMP® exam and you don't know how to get started? Are you unsure about what and when to study?
Let The PM StudyCoach be Your Roadmap for the next 10 weeks. |
|
Dear PMP® Student,
My name is Cornelius Fichtner, PMP and when I studied for my PMP® Exam in 2004 it was difficult for me to find information about what and how to study. Students and teachers told me to "study for about 1-3 hours every day for about 1-3 months". How vague is that? That is no help to anyone.
That's why I decided to take the guesswork out of this and I created The PM StudyCoach for you. The PM StudyCoach is a 10-week long coaching course in which I show you exactly what you have to study. Week after week. There is no more guessing!
So let me be your coach on the road to passing the PMP® Exam because I have helped over 8,000 students to take the exam. I know that my approach works! |
OSP International LLC has been reviewed and approved as a provider of project management training by the Project Management Institute (PMI). As a PMI Registered Education Provider (R.E.P.), we have agreed to abide by PMI established quality assurance criteria. |

What do I get with The PM StudyCoach? |
|
The PM StudyCoach is a 10-week long course. At its center are the 12 Coaching Sessions with your coach Cornelius Fichtner, PMP - that's me.
Each session is a recorded MP3 file that you can play on your computer or portable player. In these sessions, I will keep you motivated to continue on your road towards becoming a PMP. I will review the areas that I have selected for you to study this week. I'll give you tips and tricks. Together, we will look at lessons learned from other, successful PMPs and I show you how you can use their experience towards your success. In total you will receive over 7.5 hours of recorded coaching.
With each coaching session you also receive other study material in the form of videos, podcasts, worksheets, articles, as well as reading and homework assignments. The course takes you step by step, chapter by chapter through the PMBOK® Guide and your PMP® Exam Prep Workbook and points out specific areas of focus in every coaching session.
There are two important worksheets you will receive that you won't get anywhere else:
- The Take Action Worksheet will be your companion throughout the course. You'll receive a new one every week. This worksheet lists every single activity that I want you to work on. These worksheets give you clear guidance in your studies. Click here to see a Take Action Sample Worksheet...
- Your Daily Study Script helps you to prepare your day-to-day study activities. On this script we recommend the activities that you should perform on every day of your exam studies. We talk about Regular Study Days and Sample Exam Taking Days and show you what to do on each.
Here is the week by week / session by session rundown of the course.
Note: All videos require Apple Quicktime. We therefore recommend that you download & install iTunes/Quicktime. Free from Apple...

Can I Fast Forward The Course? |
|
The PM StudyCoach is designed as a 10-week long course and it is best consumed and followed as such.
However, if you would like to "skip" a few weeks then that is possible. This has to be done manually. Please write to our support and ask them to "fast forward" your course by X weeks. Please include your full name and the email address that is on the account. It can take up to 2 business days to complete your request because this is a manual change to your account.
Let's say you asked support to fast forward by 4 weeks, then as soon as your account was updated you will be able to download all course materials for these 4 weeks. |
|
Here is how The PM StudyCoach will Guide You in Your Studies |
|
How much does The PM StudyCoach Cost? |
|
The real question to ask is: How much is it worth to have a professional PMP ® Exam Coach by your side for 10 weeks who gives you clear assignments that guide you towards your own certification and at the same time takes all the guesswork out of your preparations?
I suppose that you could do what most PMP Students do - just "make it up as you go", and use the "trial and error" method. You'll never be sure if you are going at it the right way. So why not take advantage of the experience and knowledge that I've put into this easy-to-follow coaching course and roadmap?
Your PM StudyCoach is just $34.99

If you are worried about buying a product that you may not like, then worry no more. Here is my personal guarantee to you:
|
100% 1-Year Money Back Guarantee!

If you feel that The PM StudyCoach does not work for you then I don't want to keep your money.
Get your risk free copy of The StudyCoach right now...
If it doesn't come up to your expectations...
If it isn't working for you...
If you are not 100% satisfied...
Just ask for a refund and I'll send your money back.
It's that simple. The risk is all on my part... not yours.
|
|
Don't forget - you have 1 year to decide ... by then you will probably already have taken and passed the PMP® exam.
Even better - you get to keep everything because there is no way that I could ask you to "un-download" the coaching materials. So you could easily take the full 10-week course and then just ask for a refund.
But I trust you and I believe that you will not break the PMI® Code of Ethics and Professional Conduct in such a way. |
