APM PMQ Training Courses
The APM Project Management Qualification (PMQ) is for those wishing to achieve a broad level of project management knowledge sufficient to participate in projects from individual assignments through to large capital projects. PMQ is for anyone who has worked within project management for two to four years, or who has recently taken on project management responsibilities.
The PMQ course may be gained through attending online classroom training to cover the syllabus; this is supplemented with an online exam workshop.
The workshop is to develop the links between topics and to prepare for the APM examination.
Please note, you are advised to start your training before arranging a date for the online examination.

PMQ Online examination workshops are normally scheduled on Fridays as required- these are booked after the training course starts - their cost is included in the overall course fee. Take the workshop on the day after the training finishes or defer to a later Friday.
PMQ Online Classroom training courses are normally scheduled once every two months on Monday and Tuesday from 09.00 to 12.15 and 13.30 to 16.45.

The APM examinations are individually booked for a date and time convenient to the candidate and when they feel ready. After taking the workshop some delegates decide they need more time in revision and preparation.
No - the examination may be booked through the MSC or directly with the APM.
All delegates receive an MSC Study Guide (in paperback format). This Study Guide together with together podcasts and other material are available in an electronic version on our MOODLE site.
