The first pandemic in nearly a century has massive repercussions across practically everything we hold dear: concern for loved ones – especially those who are older, acquisition of daily life necessities such as toilet paper, and restriction of movement.  The “new reality” can be dark and fierce, and worse, situations may be worse before they become better.

As a self-proclaimed, socially conscious company, we’ve been watching and thinking deeply about how we can help our society to make the best of a bad situation. Here is what we came up with… for those who are stuck indoors, willingly or unwillingly.  Let’s use this time wisely to prepare for a PMI certification.  Effective immediately and until May 31, 2020, we are doing the following:

1. Heavy discounts on our courses
   1. Discount our pre-recorded course for PMI-ACP, PgMP, and PfMP by 30%. This is the first time we ever discounted our pre-recorded courses:
      1. PgMP and PfMP – $279 (Listed: $399)
      2. PMI-ACP – $181 (Listed: $259)
   2. Discount our live-virtual course for PMP, PMI-ACP, PMI-RMP, PgMP, and PfMP by 30%, so the new prices are as follows:

      4. PMI-ACP – $559 (Listed: $799)
      5. PMI-RMP – $769 (Listed: $1,099)
2. Giving away access to a limited version of our exam simulators of over 200 questions for PMP, PgMP, and PfMP.
   1. To take advantage of these prices (#1) and free access (#2), please register here and use Coupon Code: COVID-19. This offer expires on 5/31/20.
3. We are also promoting our Value Exchange program in which you can offset the cost of training. For more information, visit our Discounts webpage at https://www.pmoadvisory.com/about-pmo-advisory/discounts/.

In addition, we are seeking ways to help our profession. Please help us by completing this survey on how you are managing projects during the pandemic: https://www.pmoadvisory.com/blog/covid19-managing-projects-during-a-pandemic/.  We have received over 50 responses already and this will likely be the theme of the next month’s webinar.  So please contribute.
