APM PMQA well run and thought through course. The online portal, with videos and learning material was a great benefit along side the teams sessions.Our trainer, Carmen, was very knowledgeable and helpful. She put time aside to help answer questions, review work of our allotted sessions which was really appreciated.A slight frustration for me was that the paper work didn't always match the slides we were looking at, and the study guide arrived after our first days learning. But overall a very well run course.Many thanks,Richard

I can highly recommend Parallel Project training for the preparation of the APM certification. The trainer are highly skilled and take huge effort in working with each individual to prepare for the exam (Thank you Carmen for you huge support and going the extra mile!). Their online platform includes very helpful videos and their prep questions trains you well for the assessment criteria.Absolute worth it!

I complete the APM Project Fundamentals Qualification through online webinars and exam. The learning materials were high quality and delivery was very professional. The tutor was extremely well prepared and use analogies, case studies and real world examples to help make the course engaging.If you want to get an APM Fundamentals Certificate and your company uses the APM system for project management, then this course is a good introduction. However, the content is largely about the APM words for different aspects of project management and you are tested, not on your PM skill, but your ability to remember a specific set of terminology. This led to a lot of "teaching to exam" rather than developing any skills. This course lacks depth and does not develop Project Management skills.

I completed the APM qualification 5 days over 5 weeks and I found this to be better way due to work commitments etc. Our trainer Carmen was very knowledgeable and I found the first 4 days of the course very beneficial. Unfortunately the final day which was used for revision didn't suit my learning style and I came away feeling more unprepared. Instead of going over all the content we have already learnt and answering any questions we just kept going over 'possible' questions and answers which really didn't work for me. I also found the exam questions to be very different to the ones we have spent time on practicing, so again seemed like a waste.
Attended the APM PFQ training & certification - One of the best trainings I have been in, the instructor (Jan Underdown) was very knowledgeable on the subjects due to her immense real-life experience in project management, very articulate and took time to ensure everyone understood the concepts.
Parallel Project Training provide a well-structured course, enabling an in depth understanding of project management methodologies, structures and challenges to overcome. The tutor (Jan Underdown) balanced the course well and I thoroughly enjoyed the experience. The online service is exceptional!

The APM Project Fundamentals Qualification (PFQ) course was very chaotic to say the least. The training provider spent way too much time making kitchen analogy to illustrate structural breakdown and then ended up rushing through the rest of the course and I feel like she missed important bits that we were asked about in the exam.

Took the virtual APM PMQ 6-week course with Paul Naybour. The course was conveniently timed to fit around the day job. Paul is hugely knowledgeable and supportive, teaching both PM principles and exam technique. Highly recommend to others with or without previous project management experience.

About Hull

About Hull

Usually abbreviated to Hull, the full name of this port city is Kingston-upon-Hull. It is located in the East Ridings of Yorkshire and sits on the River Hull at the point where it meets the Humber Estuary. It is the fourth largest city in the Yorkshire area. The city can trace its roots back to mediaeval times and in more recent times has been a prospering port dealing in the export of wool and woollen cloth and the importing of timber and wine. It is a vibrant city with plenty to offer to visitors, it has a good tourist industry and makes an ideal location for those attending project management training courses.

Hull is easy to get to by train with a journey from London taking a little over 2 hours 30 minutes. From Manchester the journey is just over 2 hours. The train station is centrally located, making it a good destination for many of the city centre hotels.

The closest airport to Hull is Humberside Airport, located 22 miles away from the city centre. There are buses connecting the airport to the city centre, however this is not a quick journey, and the train station is 3 miles away. Taxis offer a much more efficient, and reasonably priced alternative for getting to the city centre. Humberside Airport offers direct flights to and from a number of destinations across Europe and also the rest of the UK.

Hull is easily accessible by road and the M62 connects the city to Liverpool, Warrington, Manchester, Huddersfield, Leeds and Halifax to name just a few within the immediate North of the country. There are also good motorway links to both the South and Scotland.

As a port city it is also worth noting that Hull is the entry point to Yorkshire for anyone arriving on the ferry from Belgium or the Netherlands.

Where to Stay

Face-to-face project management courses often last for several days, making it necessary to find accommodation nearby. Here are just some of the four star hotels in Hull that you may want to consider.

Doubletree by Hilton Hull

This is a centrally located hotel a very short walk from the station. It also benefits from onsite payable parking with both electric vehicle charging bays and accessible parking spaces available. This is a very modern hotel with a contemporary feel. It has all of the modern conveniences you would expect from a Hilton brand hotel and also offers a range of business services as well. The hotel offers both a restaurant and a bar for the convenience of its guests but there are also a number of restaurants in the nearby vicinity.

Mercure Hull Grange Park Hotel

For those who prefer to visit Hull by car and do not mind being a little distance from the city centre, Mercure Hull Grange Park Hotel is a fantastic choice with plenty of free onsite parking. The location of this hotel on the outskirts of the city makes this a good choice for those who are looking for a single location for their accommodation and training courses as the hotel has a number of meeting rooms which can be hired for this purpose. There are also a number of restaurants located nearby.

Holiday Inn Hull Marina

Overlooking Hull marina, this hotel is just a couple of minutes walking distance from the waterside. It is located 650 yards from the station and not far from the city centre. Parking at the hotel needs to be booked in advance and there are a number of electric vehicle charging points. The hotel offers a range of business facilities and is modern and spacious inside.

Things To Do

Whilst you stay in Hull for a couple of days it is well worth taking some time to explore the local area and there is certainly plenty to keep you occupied.

Restaurants

The diverse culture of Hull and its unique geography is reflected in its cuisine, here you will find everything from good pub grub to chain restaurants, fish and chips to Asian flavours.

There are no Michelin starred restaurants in Hull itself. However, there are two restaurants in nearby Beverly which is just 11 miles away which have merited a mention in the Michelin guide.

The first of these is Westwood (HU17 7AE), which serves modern British food. The chef owners like to mix traditional dishes with more contemporary ideas. The restaurant itself is located in a wing of a former courthouse which makes for some interesting surroundings.

The second is Whites which offers a modern menu that likes to showcase the best ingredients that Yorkshire has to offer. The contemporary dining space is neutral to better show off the stunning artwork that the owners have chosen for the walls.

Within Hull itself popular restaurants include Ambiente (HU1 1TG) which serves a range of tapas style dishes, Gusto da Gianni where you will find an incredible array of Italian inspired dishes and Shoot the Bull where you will find an unusual selection of restaurant-style street food dishes.

Entertainment

Within the centre of Hull you will find all of the usual evening options that you would expect with a good range of traditional pubs and more contemporary bars. There are also a number of comedy clubs offering a good variety of comedy acts most evenings.

There is also a theatre and a cinema in the city and again you will find a good range of different options with something to suit most individuals.

If however you are looking for something a little different you may want to consider a booking with Enigma – Live Escape rooms. This is a franchise offering escape room experiences for small groups and makes a great, and unusual, team building experience.

You may also want to consider Game of Throwing where you will be able to try your hand at some axe throwing. Whatever you are looking for there is a good chance that you will find it in Hull.
