This course is a great introduction to Agile Project Management. I loved learning about the history and conception of the Agile principles and concepts. Anyone who is a project manager or who is interested in project management would benefit from taking one day of their time to understand the foundation of this style of project management. The efficiency, adaptability, and customer-focused approach are really refreshing and cool! Any instructor would be great, but take the course with Sly if you can!

I got a better understanding of PM, realized I'd been doing a lot of it already, and identified things I could learn more about. The instructor was a people person, great at integrating various PM topics with so-called "soft skills" (interpersonal relationships, listening to and understanding a stakeholder's needs/perspective, etc.) and giving examples of how they make a difference to implementing the project.

Dr. Sly Young is, without a doubt, one of the best instructors I've ever had the pleasure of learning from, and I'm eternally grateful for his guidance in helping me prepare for the PMP exam! His ability to dissect complex project management concepts into digestible, easily understandable pieces is truly remarkable. What could have been an overwhelming journey through the PMBOK Guide was instead an engaging and surprisingly enjoyable experience. Dr. Young possesses a rare talent for making even the most dry topics come alive. Beyond his technical expertise, Dr. Young's enthusiasm for project management is infectious. He clearly loves what he does, and that passion translates into a dynamic and inspiring classroom experience. He transformed a potentially stressful exam preparation process into a journey of discovery and empowerment. If you're looking for a PMP instructor who can not only break down the complexities of project management but also make the learning process fun and engaging, look no further than Dr. Sly Young. He is a truly exceptional educator and I wholeheartedly recommend him! Thanks to Dr. Young, I was able to identify areas that I need additional study time in and areas that I already have a decent understanding of. Thank you Dr. Young!
