Our 4 day CAPM® exam prep course prepares you to easily pass the 150 question, 3 hour CAPM® exam.
Our instructor-led, in-person, classroom environment, combined with our on-line CAPM® simulation test, work together providing you the knowledge and insight needed to pass the CAPM® exam and earn your Certified Associate in Project Management credential.
While other providers typically present the CAPM® material from the encyclopedia-like prospective of the 10 knowledge areas, our course is unique in that we present the CAPM® material in a natural format following the 5 process groups. We start with Project Initiation and end with Project Closing. We feel this is a far better approach to learning the CAPM® Exam material and prepares you to apply it to your organization going forward.
In addition to study aids and the on-line test simulation, all of our participants will receive their own copy of the Project Management Body of Knowledge Guide-Sixth and Seventh Edition. Attend our four day class... take your CAPM® exam and become certified!

What can you tell me about the CAPM Exam?The CAPM Exam spans 3 hours and has 150 multiple-choice questions with four possible answer for each questions. This gives you about 1.2 minutes per questions.
How is the CAPM Exam different from the PMP Exam?The CAPM and PMP exams are based on Blooms Taxonomy. The PMP exam is based on the higher levels of the taxonomy (Creating, Evaluating, Analyzing) whereas the CAPM is based on the lower levels of the taxonomy (Remember, Understand, Applying). This means the PMP exam is based more on situational questions whereas the CAPM is based more on remembering lists and groupings, and inputs/outputs.

You can locate a PearsonVue testing center in your area from their website: www.PearsonVue.com.

Should I become a member of PMI?Membership in PMI has many benefits. Membership presently costs $129.00/year and generous discounts are available to students and retired professionals.

What score is needed to pass the CAPM Exam?PMI requires a 61% to pass the test. Understand, though that this number should mean absolutely nothing to you because the test is difficult and structured with questions that are extremely tricky.
What is needed to maintain a CAPM certification?Unlike the PMP Certification, the CAPM does not require Professional Development Units (PDU's) to stay certified. A CAPM Certification expires after 5 years. Most people test for the PMP at that point.
Am I guaranteed to pass the CAPM Exam?
Red Rock Research offers an industry-leading price, and an optional first-time passing guarantee for the CAPM exam. This means that if you purchase the guarantee, we guarantee you will pass the test on your first try. The CAPM is a difficult test and we take our guarantee seriously. If you don't pass the test on the first try we will pay for your second attempt. If you don't pass on your second attempt, we will pay for your third attempt. If you don't pass the CAPM on the third try, PMI requires you to wait an entire calendar year before your next attempt, and Red Rock will refund you the cost of the course minus the test we have paid for already. Check our guarantee against others and be sure they give you all of your money back, like we do. We have noted that many other providers keep a 'processing fee' when issuing refunds.
What is your pass rate for the CAPM Exam?Pass rates vary over time. Of those attendees who follow our plan, about 8 out of 9 pass the CAPM exam on their first attempt. People who study pass the test, people who don't study have to take it over again.
