PMP® Certification
PMP® Exam Preparation – Online Pacific Time
Prepare for your PMP with a 30 year PM veteran in your corner
Most PMP prep courses put you in a room (virtual or otherwise) with dozens of strangers, hand you a study guide, and wish you luck.
We take a different approach entirely.
Every Gantt Academy class runs with a maximum of five students. We cap enrollment so every student gets the attention the material actually requires.
Most project managers reach the PMP stage of their careers with minimal PMI-centric training. They learned by doing — negotiating scope, navigating stakeholders, recovering from problems that weren’t in any textbook. That path builds real instincts. It also leaves specific gaps the exam will find. If that sounds like you, you’re not behind. You’re exactly who this course is designed for.
Some of what we’ll cover will feel immediately familiar — you figured it out on your own without the PMI® framework around it.
Some of it will fill genuine gaps — solutions to problems you’re facing today.
Some of it will be completely new: tools and techniques you need to change industries, get promoted, or scale up to the big projects.
All of it is learnable. We’re in your corner until you’re certified.
This course fulfills PMI’s 35 contact hour requirement and is taught live; never recorded, never recycled. Every session is current, every question gets a real answer, and every student receives ongoing support as long as they need it.
“His class prepared me for the PMP exam and I passed on my first attempt.
While studying, I could hear his voice in my head, repeating key points about frameworks and methodologies.”
— Alina Bell, PMP · Principal Business Analyst, Sana Biotechnology
About Your Instructor
The PMP exam is scenario-based, not memorization-based. That means the way you’re taught matters as much as what you’re taught.
Jeff Cadieux, PMI-ACP, PMP, CSM, ITIL (LinkedIn) is a San Francisco based project manager and trainer with 30 years of project and program management experience. He has led projects for some of the world’s most demanding organizations including NASA, Apple, Cisco, VISA International, Merrill Lynch, Chevron and Kaiser Permanente. Jeff grew up in Houston, TX and attended Baylor University (Information Systems 1991). He currently lives near San Francisco.
A former board member of PMI San Francisco, Jeff founded Gantt Academy on a simple conviction: that the best way to prepare someone for the PMP exam is to teach them the way certified project managers actually think.
Every Gantt Academy course is taught by Jeff personally. You won’t be assigned to an anonymous roster of instructors. You’ll work with the same person from your first demo class to your exam day – and beyond if you need it.
“What sets Jeff apart is his natural storytelling ability – he brings real-world scenarios into every concept; making complex project management principles both understandable and memorable.”
— Kaity Berg, PMP · Process Optimization & Implementation Leader
