Q3 PMI Night School Certification Course
The second option, for those of you who prefer a later time, is the PMI Night School Certification Course.

There are 8 live-virtual classroom sessions taught by a practicing Project Management Agile specialist. Not only will this course give you the 35 hours required for the PMP, but you will be provided with road tested materials, including an online practice exam, that will suit you up for success.
