A huge thank you to Anatolii Savin from KnowledgeMap and Natalia Starynska, PMP from InStar for their invaluable support in my preparation! Your expertise, guidance, and dedication made this possible. I also want to express my gratitude to my team at National Bank of Ukraine, who have always supported me on this journey.

First, I want to extend my deepest thanks to my family for their incredible support and patience through all those evenings of study. Their encouragement made this accomplishment possible. A special thank you to Alina Piddubna for her creative and professional approach to teaching at InStar school. It was a fantastic experience to be a student once again and to learn from such an inspiring mentor. Looking forward to applying these skills and embracing new challenges!

The free cohort retake applies on three conditions: you attended at least 80% of sessions, you took the exam within 6 months of the course end, and you scored 80% or more on the PMI exam simulator before the exam. The PMI exam fee is paid to PMI only after PMI approves your application. If you do not apply within 6 months, we refund the exam fee minus an admin fee. PMI membership is personal and is registered on your own PMI account. PMI Study Hall is activated at the end of the course, so the 3 months cover your final exam preparation. Mentoring sessions run in a separate group chat for Certification and All inclusive participants.
We pay the PMI items to PMI on your behalf. Discounts apply to the course price only.
