Who wants to pass the PMP® Exam The Easy Way?
All you have to do is watch, learn and succeed...
Are you frustrated because you are trying to balance life, family, friends, work and on top of it all you need to find the time to study for the challenging Project Management Professional (PMP)® Exam? My name is Cornelius Fichtner, PMP and I was in your shoes in 2004 when I was preparing for my exam.
I had just started a new job, moved to a new house and I had a tight budget to get ready for my PMP® Exam. There wasn't a single product available that would make it easier for me. So I created my own.
I passed my PMP® Exam in April 2004 and since then I have given many PMP® classroom trainings. I was also the 2007 president of my PMI® chapter. But most importantly, I am the Host of The Project Management Podcast™, a show where I regularly speak with project managers from all over the world. And now, all my experience as a PMP® student, PMP® trainer, PMI® chapter president and creator of The PM Podcast™ is packed and available to you in The Project Management PrepCast™. Click here to order it right now...
Watch our introduction video right now and let me explain the PrepCast to you:
The PrepCast™ is the first and only 35 hour long PMP® Exam Video Workshop and we received fantastic feedback from our students. Here is what some of our students have to say about the PrepCast™:
As you can see from these student testimonials, the PrepCast™ is a fantastic study tool that makes it very easy to get PMP® ready. It is the best PMP® Audio Workshop available. It removes the pain of studying.
How many Students does the PrepCast™ have?
Glad you asked. On February 22, 2010 we had 9,011 students. (We update this number once per week.)
Our company 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.

Here is what You will Get
The Premium Project Management PrepCast™ covers concepts, tools and techniques you need to be familiar with to take the PMP® Certification exam. We cover the material from the 2008 PMBOK® Guide (4th Edition), and we include the necessary models, theories and formulas not covered in the Guide. Our episodes are interesting and engaging. We won’t bore you! We help you understand these concepts instead of memorizing them.
The PrepCast gives you 112 video and audio lessons. Each lesson averages 26 minutes length and focuses on one concept or process. In total our lessons are over 47 hours long. You'll get 38 hours of video lessons and 9.5 hours of audio lessons. You can watch them as often as you like to enhance your understanding. Each Episode has a number that allows for easy sorting in your portable player. The episodes in which we discuss the Knowledge Areas are numbered following the Guide's chapter numbers. For instance all episodes on Project Scope Management begin with the number 05. Here they are:

The total file size of all episodes is approximately 2.5 Gigabytes. A high-speed internet connection is strongly recommended. Many companies have corporate firewalls in place and you many not be able to download the lesson videos on your work computer.
Note: Neither a transcript nor the presentation slides are part of the PrepCast package. They are also not available for purchase.
If you have been looking for a good way to study for the PMP® Exam, then you will have seen that companies who offer online and especially in-classrom workshops will charge you several hundred dollars. The good news is that we are not like them.
I will not charge you hundreds of dollars for this
Do you remember that I said earlier that I was on a tight budget, when I was studying for the exam? Well, I still feel my pain from back then and I decided that I did not want to charge hundreds of dollars for the PrepCast™. Instead it has to be affordable for everyone. And because we are a small company, because we don't have expensive phone support and because we are offering the PrepCast™ as downloadable eWorkshop,
We offer the PrepCast to you
for just $99.97.

(These numbers were collected on April 09, 2009. We tried our best to find comparable online training courses that offer 35 contact hours for online or down-loadable PMP® Exam preparation courses. The last 2 in the list are different but listed for comparison. We are showing the regular prices without discount offers. But even if we showed you the discount offers, we would still be the least expensive and complete 35 hour workshop.)
I will also give the following Bonus Items as a Gift to you:
I decided that I did not want to just create a down-loadable workshop. So I went ahead and I added several Bonus Items to the Videocast. You will receive these from me as a free gift with your purchase:
Bonus Item #1: Certificate for 35 Contact Hours (Value $200)

And once you have your certificate you can sign up for the PMP® Exam. No other PMP® Audio seminar can give you the certificate just for listening. Look around the internet and you will quickly see that in order to receive 35 contact hours elsewhere you will have to buy a product will at least cost you two hundred dollars.
Bonus Item #2: 60 tough PMP® sample questions (Value $40)
These are not your straightforward PMP® sample questions that you can find on any website. These are tough. And because they are tough, you will find an explanation for each of the answers given. You will be able to understand why the answer chosen is the correct one.

I heard your podcast as it was subscribed by one of my friends. I just appeared for my PMP exam last week and I cleared it. I guess lot of credit for my success goes to you. Even as I have already passed the exam, I surely do feel that I should pay for the podcast, for I have used it. So I am going to go ahead and make payment for it. Thanks for creating this podcast.

I have used the PM PrepCast daily for the past month, I have to tell you that this tool, in my opinion, is a must for anyone studying for the exam who leads an active life (walking, jogging, biking, swimming… okay, maybe it wouldn’t work so well while swimming) or finds themselves with lots of “dead time” commuting or traveling. I unfortunately spent a few hundred dollars on a PMP Prep DVD collection from a particular company that didn’t even scratch the surface of what I feel I will need to know in preparation to take the exam. Conversely, the PM PrepCast covers the inputs, tools and techniques, and outputs of each process in great detail with easy to understand examples, exam tips, and even suggestions from those who have recently taken the exam on how to best prepare!
