PMP Study Circle – Fall 2026

A light, supportive peer-led group to help you prepare for the PMP® exam

What Is the Study Circle?

The PMP Study Circle is not a class - it's a collaborative, peer-led space to help you stay motivated and on track for the PMP® exam. Over 6 biweekly sessions, you’ll review key concepts, practice exam-style questions, and connect with others who are on the same journey.

Why Join?

  • Stay Consistent – Build study momentum with structured check-ins.
  • Learn with Peers – Share insights, study tactics, and real-world examples.
  • Practice Often – Tackle 5–10 exam-style questions each session.
  • Build Accountability – Work in small groups for encouragement and focus.
  • Keep It Light – This isn’t a heavy training course — just the right amount of structure and support.

How It Works

  • Format: 6 sessions, biweekly Saturdays (October–December 2026)
  • Style: Light structure, interactive discussion, practice questions
  • Platform: Zoom (live sessions) 
  • Duration: 1 hour 30 minutes per session
  • Leadership: Rotating “session captains” keep energy balanced; occasional guest PMP mentors join for Q&A
