Graduate results and what they say
"Thrilled to Announce My PMP Certification!🏆🎓 Today, on International Project Management Day, I’m excited to celebrate by sharing that I’ve officially earned my Project Management Professional (PMP) certification! Passing the exam with Above Target (AT) scores across all domains was both a rewarding and challenging journey. I’m deeply grateful for the support and resources that helped make this milestone possible. 🙌 Heartfelt Gratitude First, a huge thank you to Eugene Balaban, Olga Fedorenko, and Oleksii Mohylnyi for their mentorship at Sigma Software. Your guidance was instrumental in refining my project management skills and contributed greatly to my success on the PMP journey. A special shoutout to Alina Piddubna and her InStar course for helping me solidify the PM mindset and bridge essential skill gaps. This course not only prepared me for the PMP exam but also helped me avoid costly mistakes and strengthened my knowledge base."
"After a four-year journey of: - thinking about the PMP certification - signing up for my first self-paced online PMP prep course on Udemy - relocating from Ukraine to the UK - completing PMP training by Alina Piddubna at InStar - diverting to obtain PRINCE2 Foundation and PRINCE2 Practitioner certifications - having the joy of obtaining SAFe SA and ICP-DAS certifications - diverting again to pass AWS Cloud Practitioner Certification inspired by cloud technology - moving from Oldham to Salford to London - finding myself as a scrum master in Finance Change & Tech (dream, no less!) - realising that my approved application for a PMP exam will expire in 2 months and I need to read through the remaining 430 pages of the famous "Rita" - PMP Exam Prep book by RMC Learning Solutions ... I’m happy to share that I’ve obtained a new certification: Project Management Professional (PMP)® from Project Management Institute!"
"I’m happy to share that I’ve obtained a new certification: Project Management Professional (PMP) from Project Management Institute! I managed to pass on the first try and got 2 out of 3 areas "Above Target"! Many thanks to Alina Piddubna and her InStar PMP preparation course. Alina, thank you for your ability to provide thorough explanations for any given concept!"
"I am thrilled to share that after months of intense mental fitness, I have officially earned my Project Management Professional (PMP) certification! 🎉 They say experience teaches you how to handle uncertainty, but this journey turned into the ultimate real-life stress test. My initial plan was to take the exam offline at Kyiv test center, but it was canceled twice for completely unexplained reasons. Switching to the online format didn't go smoothly either: during my first attempt, severe technical difficulties caught me off guard, causing massive stress that ultimately led to a failed exam. Dealing with that level of frustration, I immediately rebooked the exam for the earliest available date, managed the risks, and successfully knocked it out of the park on the retake, scoring Above Target in all 3 domains (3AT)! 🚀 In general, it was a fantastic journey and a great opportunity to align my practical experience with global standards and prove that my gut feelings actually have official PMI process names. This milestone belongs to a whole stakeholder register of amazing people, and I want to say a huge THANK YOU: - to my Trainer, Natalia Starynska, PMP for sharing sharp insights and helping me truly understand the "PMI mindset" - to my Prep Team for constructive debates and experience sharing - to my Colleagues from the best PMO in Europe for their incredible support Now I can finally officially confirm that I manage projects according to PMI standards, and not just through sheer willpower and magic😉"
