BLENDED TRAINING
As we are facing an unknown situation as to when face to face classes will be back up and running again, we have a blended learning solution which combines exceptional e-learning course with a virtual 1.5 day workshop with an APM trainer. This solution is ideal if you are self-funding the course or you have a group within an organisation to train.
The e-learning will take around 30 – 35 hours to complete, and this can be done at your own pace in your own time.
Then when you have completed the e-learning, you book to virtually attend one of our trainer led virtual workshops which will run over 2 days. The timing of those days with virtual workshops will be 9am – 4pm on day 1, and day 2 will run from 9am – 1pm. Workshops in Nantwich and London will run for two full days and the exam will be taken the afternoon of the second day. These will be consecutive back to back days within the working week.
Upcoming blended workshops:
- 19th-20th August 2021 – Nantwich or virtual classroom, 2 days
- 11th-12th October 2021 – London, 2 days
- 16th-17th December 2021 – Nantwich or virtual classroom, 2 days
Part 1 of APM PMQ Blended Course – e-learning
The effort required with the e-learning learning is approximately 30 hours of self-study time. This will include a mix of video, e-learning, downloads and mock exam questions and answers. A large focus is on ‘Project Management in Practice’. We know that you need knowledge in order to pass the final APM Project Management Qualification (APMP) but it’s also important that people can relate the information to their every day jobs in order to be a more effective team member.
Part 2 of APM PMQ Blended Course – 1.5 day virtual workshop
You will have learnt the ‘knowledge’ part of the course through the e-learning before dialing into the scheduled virtual workshop. The first day of the virtual classroom course is intensive and will concentrate on clarification of the knowledge and validate your thought processes. The morning of the second day will focus on exam preparation to get you ready for the APM PMQ exam. The APM PMQ exam can be taken online at a time to suit you.
