Learn To Blend PMBOK Scrum - Stand Out From The Crowd - Be Ready For PMP 2020

Blend PMBOK with Scrum - even with no agile project management experience!

Most savvy Project Managers don't have a clue how to blend PMBOK with Scrum - and no one else online seems to know either (apart from us!) 

It's counter-intuitive to bridge the mental chasm between the heavy waterfall bias of The PMBOK Guide and a more speedy agile/scrum delivery framework - isn't it?

You fumble around reading up on bits of agile, but they just don't make any sense force-fitting them into the gaps of those 49 processes of PMBOK.

You worry you have yet to deliver a single Agile/Scrum-based project -your head spins trying to remember the steps and sequences - let alone being able to deliver on them ...

But It Gets Worse

Have you got sweaty palms after hearing that The Project Management Institute has  announced the acquisition of Disciplined Agile (DA)?

What does PMI know that you don't?

The new PMP Exam Syllabus for PMP 2020 has already been published - and a massive 50% (that's 100) of the exam questions will be agile-based

Can you tell me the five new skill areas a project manager must adopt to manage an agile project - and what exactly is agile technical arrears?

Do you feel inadequate because you are not sure how to blend the project manager role with the two key scrum roles?

Perhaps you're not sure how to groom a Backlog?

Frustrating isn't it? How does it make you feel because you would stumble and struggle to get any more than a lousy 20% correct on scrum-related questions?

Agitated because you can't get clear, specific, step-by-step guidance on how to grasp and master agile and scrum project management frameworks?

If you could just be given a chance, learn from an expert you’d quickly see blending PMBOK with Scrum is not so hard and gaining the knowledge you need is very doable - plus it will provide you with a positive boost to your career.

Feeling foolish because other project managers seem to know more about delivering agile projects than you?

Why not you? What’s the big conspiracy?

Imagine - just a few moments from now, you can start learning PMBOK and Scrum Blending ... and master it in just a handful of hours ...

Here at Projex Academy, we are well ahead of the curve - we have got your back for PMBOK 2020, Agile and Scrum Practice Guides, and the new PMI 2020 Syllabus ...

Here’s what people are saying about Dave ...

Prakash Kumar

Project Manager

Your Masterclass has done the most exciting thing in my life. I have got through the Exam on 5th June test. Thank you very much.

You and your voice are still very inspiring. You wont imagine... even after my exam I came back and as usual opened your Masterclass to hear your voice that begins with........Hi its Dave......

It has become a part of my life and for any question I may get in future, I find the answer from Projex Academy's Masterclass (it's comforting to know I have course access)

Phyllis Coleman

Project Manager

I want to thank you for your great Masterclass Training materials. I passed my exam yesterday on my first try and I owe a lot of that success to your fantastic presentation of the project management processes and knowledge areas. I have been singing your praises to all my colleagues who are pursuing the certification and have encouraged them to buy your training

Elaine Ho

Project Manager

I want to take this opportunity to thank you so much for your Masterclass! Needless to say, I loved your Masterclass and, after seeing the perfect pricing  I made the decision to purchase your Video Masterclass.

After cramming your video's into 3.5 days of studying (you were my sole study material) I am thrilled to say I passed my exam, and was shocked at how much I actually retained, especially with regards to the math (I am NOT a math person and do not have ANY sense of memorization)! Thank you for helping me not only memorize, but also understand - and learn - the concepts I needed to know.

Don’t wait! Look at what past students have to say about Projex Academy Online Training

Adam Williams

Project Manager

Success - I passed first try!"

"Just thought I would let you know I passed my exam on Wednesday, thanks to your help. Your Masterclass videos and study materials were invaluable and got me across the line. Thanks again - I will certainly recommend your Masterclass to anyone wanting to go for this certification.."

Will Roberts

Project Manager

I took and failed the exam last week. After failing, I purchased your Masterclass and wanted to tell you how encouraged I am by your training. Finally, someone that can really teach the system properly. I look forward to Nov. 3rd when I will try the test again.

UPDATE November 3rd - Hi Dave, Just a note to let you know I took the exam yesterday and passed it. I appreciate your hard work in preparing your materials and skills in teaching, it was THE big reason I passed the second time. Have a Great Day!

Walter Heuvel 

Project Manager

Thank you very much for going the extra mile. I can only express my gratitude by saying and meaning that you are truly a Guru and a Master in your work. I have seen many tutorial videos on the exam in the past, and they left me exactly where I started from. Your teaching videos have given me almost immediate understanding for what is going on.
