IIL Virtual Classroom Environment
The Advanced Project Management Certification is live and online. As a busy professional, you will value the flexibility and ease the online program offers. This 66-hour certification program can be completed between 3 and 12 months.

The online classes are led by live instructors so you get the benefits of a classroom situation in your office. The classes have a good balance of lectures, discussion and individual exercises to help you develop the skills necessary to effectively lead projects from start to finish.

Worried about schedule conflicts?
Don’t be. The APMC® is offered to you live or recorded. If you cannot attend a live class, simply go to the archived class, anytime—day or night, even on a weekend and you are all caught up.

There are two sessions that are offered to you: during the day between 1 and 4 pm EST and in the evenings between 6 and 9 pm EST. Once again, it’s completely up to you to pick the session you want.
Bring APMC to Your Company
If your company has a group of 12 or more employees to train, the APMC® curriculum can be delivered in a private IIL Virtual Classroom environment. Or, if you prefer the curriculum can be delivered in the classroom—onsite or at the location of your choice. Save money, eliminate travel, and get a course that is completely tailored to your organization's needs.

APMC® Testimonials

“The classes were exceptional… if anyone is concerned because this is an online class and that there will not be any interaction they will be very surprised. The instructors were very knowledgeable and not only taught what was in the book but also added relevant knowledge that helped in understanding the material."
Robert Haluska
Manager
Choiceparts, LLC


“I was ready to take my project management skills to the next level. IIL's Advanced Project Management Certification was just what I was looking for. Dr. Kerzner's Best Practices in Project Management class was a treasure trove of “Solutions” to problems we've all encountered. I look forward to testing some of these solutions on my next project."
Ed Tischofer, PMP, APMC
Vice President, IT
Emergency Debt Relief, Inc


“I would like to recommend the APMC® certification to all PMPs. As a PMP, I wanted a training program and a certification that would build on PMP and go beyond. The APMC® not only covers Project Management but it also teaches Program Management and Portfolio Management. The program is very well designed, includes amazing content and allows self paced training which allowed me to become the first APMC® outside of the US. IIL and Dr. Kerzner have outdone themselves with the APMC®.”
