I’ve been really impressed with QA’s Total Learning platform. It’s an innovative blend of self-paced digital learning and virtual delivery that utilises real world collaborative tools to provide learners with the practical skills they need to build competence and achieve the certification. The APM Project Fundamentals Qualification (PFQ) and the APM Project Management Qualification (PMQ) courses are highly engaging and, in a time where project management is more important than ever, QA’s Total Learning is an effective solution for any individual or organisation seeking to develop their ability to deliver projects successfully
