“An excellent company with fantastic training products. Callum is a fantastic trainer, and balances what you need to know from an academic perspective, with how this can apply in practice. The relatable stories he uses helps the tougher topics to stick and everyone I've been in contact with has been supportive and responsive. Wouldn't hesitate to recommend.” – Nicola Cunnington
“The whole service from booking to exam was flawless. The course I joined was a mix of online and classroom based learners - I was concerned at the start that the technological issues everyone faces with Zoom etc. would cause a problem for the classroom based learners, however it was all handled perfectly by Callum and the team. Really happy with the experience and skills I've picked up. I will be booking the next course with TrainingByteSize very soon!” – Tim Burchell

The duration of each APM course differs depending on the certification and delivery method.
APM certifications do not have an expiration date. Once you have achieved an APM qualification, it remains valid indefinitely.
However, while the certification itself doesn't expire, the knowledge and skills gained through the certification may become outdated over time due to changes in project management practices, methodologies, or technology. Therefore, professionals are encouraged to stay updated with the latest developments in project management and consider pursuing additional training or certifications as needed to maintain their proficiency and relevance in the field.
Training teams is what we do really well, so if you have more than 1 person to train it may be more cost effective for you to consider our corporate solutions.
