The PM Podcast is NOT for the PMP Exam

• The PM Podcast is not designed for PMP exam preparation. While some of the topics we discuss on the podcast are topics that may be beneficial for exam preparation, the podcast itself is not created as an exam study tool. It does not follow a curriculum and it is not created based upon best practices in course design. It is "just" a free podcast about project management. Albeit a very good one.
• The Project Management Institute (PMI)® requires that in order for a distance learning course to be valid for PMP exam preparation, the course must include an "end-of-course assessment". The PM Podcast does not offer such an assessment and you cannot obtain a "certificate of completion" from us.
