I have recently cleared My CAPM certification. Your videos helped me a lot, while preparation.

The way you explained the functioning and interdependencies of all the knowledge areas, it gives a very sharp image of PMBOK , and one more thing , your voice modulation while speaking is very nice.

Thank you for creating good content. And that too free of cost!

Recently I cleared my PMP exam with Above Target in all areas.

Even though I didn't took 35 PDUs thru PMCLounge, but for better/more understanding I used their platform. And it was very very good videos with more clarity and better way of explanation on the concepts.

Thanks once again.

Dan Sandifer, CAPM

Thank you. I had taken the "official" CAPM course from PMI but was struggling with the material. I watched your video on the formulas and then wound up going through multiple videos and found them clear, concise, and perfect. I passed the CAPM exam last Friday achieving above target on twelve of the thirteen topics (the last achieving target) and I attribute it to your videos. I have been in working in IT for many years and unfortunately, have been on furlough since March. As soon as I start working again, I am going to make a donation or two. Thank you for these videos and for making them free. I have given a thumbs up to many of them and will recommend them to everyone. May life bring you peace.
