PMFORUM Breaking News

PMForum has entered into a partnership with the Centre for Excellence in Project Management (CEPM) of New Delhi, India to offer a set of high quality, low cost, online project management courses, including CEPM's renowned Certificate in Project Management (CIPM) program. The new courses can now be found at www.cepm-pmforum.com.

According to Adesh Jain, globally recognized project management guru, founder and Chief Executive of CEPM (pictured at left), "Over the last five years, we have developed CIPM into a recognized option for companies who want to train and certify a large number of project managers and project management team members, but who do not want to pay the high American or European prices. We are happy to now team up with PMForum to now offer this program, and our other online courses, to the broader project management world."

The new PMForum and CEPM partnership is offering the following online project management courses, at rates below the global norm:

• Certificate in Project Management

•  IPMA Level D Certification Preparation Course
  

• Advanced Project Management Concepts (APMC)
  

• Microsoft Project Professional 2007

In addition, the team offers a project management knowledge assessment - Project Management Knowledge Quotient (PMKQ) - a low cost assessment of basic project management knowledge. The PMKQ is a good opportunity for individuals and corporations to check their level of PM understanding.

David Pells, President and Managing Editor of PMForum stated, "Beginning with the PMKQ short test and continuing through the APMC and CIPM courses, individuals and organizations can receive a rather complete assessment and learning experience for a reasonable cost. We think this is a real service to the project management community, and to those organizations in much of the world with limited resources for training today."

In the future, the CEPM-PMForum team will offer a PMP Certification Prep course for the Project Management Institute's Project Management Professional (PMP®) Exam, and other distance learning courses. For more information, visit www.cepm-pmforum.com.
