PMI Changed the PMP Training Rules. Make Sure Your Hours Count.

Starting December 1, 2026, PMI only accepts live, instructor-led PMP training from Authorized Training Partners or eligible accredited academic programs. Live classes from non-authorized providers no longer count toward the 35 contact hours you need to apply for the PMP exam.

That means where you train matters more than ever. Take a live course from a provider that isn't a PMI ATP, and you may have to take your training again.

Computer Coach is a PMI Authorized Training Partner. Every hour of our live PMP course counts. You also complete PMI's official knowledge check, so you get the certificate of completion your application needs.

What's Covered in Our PMP Exam Prep Course

Our PMP course follows PMI's updated exam, which launched in July 2026. The new exam puts more weight on business value, strategy and real-world decisions, including how AI and sustainability affect projects.

The Three PMP Exam Domains

  • People (33% of the exam): leading teams, resolving conflict, engaging stakeholders and building high-performing teams.
  • Process (41%): planning, scheduling, budgeting, managing risk and delivering with predictive, agile and hybrid approaches.
  • Business Environment (26%): aligning projects to strategy, delivering value, managing compliance and leading change.

What's Included

  • 40 hours of live, instructor-led PMP training
  • PMI-authorized course materials
  • Official PMI practice questions and full-length exam simulations
  • PMI knowledge check and certificate of completion for your 35 contact hours
  • Step-by-step help with your PMI exam application
  • Test-taking strategies from PMP-certified instructors

Are You Eligible for the PMP Exam?

PMI requires a mix of education, project experience and training. Your project experience must fall within the last 10 years.

  • Four-year degree: 36 months of experience leading projects + 35 hours of project management training
  • High school diploma or associate's degree: 60 months of experience leading projects + 35 hours of project management training
  • Already have your CAPM? An active CAPM satisfies the 35-hour training requirement.

You don't need the title "project manager" to qualify. If you've led projects, directed tasks or managed timelines and budgets, your experience may count.

Not sure if you qualify? Our advisors will review your experience for free and tell you exactly what you need.

Why the PMP Is Worth It

According to PMI's 2025 Earning Power salary survey, U.S. PMP holders earn a median salary of $135,000, about 24% more than project professionals without it.
