The PM PrepCast Comes in Three Versions:
Basic, Elite, and Elite PLUS:
The PM PrepCast was first launched in 2008 with the goal of providing high-quality but low-cost training to project managers preparing for their exam. We have continuously updated it to stay in tune with the latest in available technology as well as the ever-increasing difficulty of the PMP exam. We invest a lot of time and effort into helping you pass, and you can select from one of three versions:
- Basic
- The PrepCast Basic is our flagship exam training program. Watch best-in-class training lessons as you confidently prepare for your PMP exam.
- Elite
- In addition to the training lessons, this package gives you 90-day access to The PM Exam Simulator so you can practice what you have learned.
- Elite PLUS
- Currently Not Available. It will be back online in Q3 of 2021. The PrepCast Elite PLUS includes everything from the Basic and Elite, as well as our PMP Exam Formulas and The PM StudyCoach Worksbooks. This is your fully loaded exam prep package. (We expect the Elite Plus to be available in Q3 2021).
The PrepCast Elite is our most popular product. And even though the Elite is recommended for most students, let's begin by reviewing what you get with The PM PrepCast Basic:
What You Get - And What The PM PrepCast Basic Will Do for You...
When you're taking the PMP exam, you'll always get a few of the same questions over and over...
... What should the project manager do?
... What should the project manager do first/next?
... What is the best course of action?
... How would you do this in an Agile/Hybrid environment?
... What tool or technique does the project manager use in this scenario?
... What process is described in this situation?
... What should the project manager have done differently to avoid this situation?
So how can you gain the knowledge to answer questions like these? Well, when you not only study but instead master PMP exam concepts with The PM PrepCast you have ADVANCED your knowledge, and you automatically give yourself a significantly better chance of being certified on your first try.
And as you probably already know, the PMP exam is not an easy exam and passing it requires commitment and dedication throughout your studies.
The PM PrepCast gives you a 'best-in-class' training, and you gain advanced-level knowledge via video-based lessons so that you can confidently answer questions similar to the ones above.
What's Inside the Latest Version of the Course?
The PM PrepCast Elite has now helped 57,803+ project managers in 56+ countries to study and prepare for their PMP exam. And passing the exam has earned them the respect of their peers and opened doors.
We spent over a year with our ear to the ground, analyzing every comment, every feedback survey response, and every support email to uncover what PrepCast students want most from our course. We also read the complete PMP Exam Content Outline and the PMBOK® Guide.
Here's what we discovered, how online training has changed, and what our students expect from a solid PMP exam prep training:
The World Has Changed... And we've Adapted Everything for You!
In response to these changes, we developed a new version of The PM PrepCast Elite to meet the needs of today's mobile student and to ensure that you are better prepared for your PMP Exam.
You'll learn the concepts you're tested on during the exam. Either download all PrepCast video lessons directly to your phone and watch them offline or log on to our Learning Management System (LMS) from anywhere in the world and follow along the suggested learning path. Step by step.
Plus, you'll be able to test yourself along the way using the provided self-assessment questions in modules 4 to 13.
Take a Look at What You'll Get
Immediately After Signing Up...
Module 1: Introduction to Project Management and Foundational Elements
In this introductory module, you review the basics of project management.

You will also learn about the importance of tailoring and review a number of project management business documents.Module 2: The Environment in Which Project Operate
This module introduces you to the all-important concepts of Organizational Process Assets and Enterprise Environmental Factors, which are two ITTOs that are referred back to in Module 4-13 again and again.

In this module, you learn to begin with the development of the project charter in order to ensure project stakeholders are in agreement.

You learn how to implement all project activities, measure project performance, and manage any changes to the project.

Here you will learn to develop the quality management plan and define the quality standards for the project and its products, based on the project scope, risks, and requirements. This helps prevent the occurrence of defects and controls the cost of quality. You'll also see how to implement the quality management plan using the appropriate tools and techniques. Lastly, you'll learn how to verify that project deliverables conform to the quality standards established in the quality management plan to meet project requirements and business needs.Module 9: Project Resource Management
This module is all about your interactions with project resources. In particular, you learn how to develop the human resource management plan by defining the roles and responsibilities of the project team members in order to create a project organizational structure and provide guidance regarding how resources will be assigned and managed.

It also includes how to maintain stakeholder relationships by following the stakeholder management plan in order to receive continued support and manage expectations.Module 20: Agile

You'll learn the tools and approaches to ensure everyone receives the information required to fulfil their role.WE BASED EVERYTHING IN THE PM PREPCAST ON WHAT EXAM TAKERS ACTUALLY NEED:
The modules of The PM PrepCast are modeled after the PMBOK® Guide for easy cross-referencing. For example Section 4 of the PMBOK® Guide matches up with Module 4 of The PM PrepCast.
The lessons of The PM PrepCast have been verified to contain all knowledge, skill, tools and techniques that are mentioned in the PMP Examination Content Outline. And because it's in the exam outline it means that you will very likely see questions about it on your actual exam.
... and we also included additional training material that you will need but is not included in the PMBOK® Guide -- for example "Delegation". For these topics we know from experience, student feedback and lessons learned analysis that they are often needed for the exam but not specifically called out anywhere. But The PM PrepCast has them for you!

Increase your chance of passing the PMP Exam with real-world examples to help you truly understand the PMP exam concepts. You will know what to expect on the exam. Plus, our course makes you a better project manager, too.

The PMP Exam has become a lot harder in recent years.
It used to be enough to take a training course, answer a few sample questions and you would be ready to pass. No more! Questions on the exam have become harder, more situational, and they are now very nuanced.
This means that you must not only get training but you must also get comfortable with the type and style of questions to expect on the exam using an online simulator. Therefore:
The PM PrepCast Elite includes both the basic training as well as our full-featured PMP Exam Simulator.
And The PM PrepCast Elite PLUS also gives you the PMP Formulas as well as The PM StudyCoach Guidebooks.
