Excellent course. Jeff Manhardt was engaged, entertaining, and provided a great information.
Gold Standard Prep was an amazing preparation for my PMP certification. I feel the course was well put together and the instructor, Jeff Manhardt, was fantastic. I recommend this class to anyone preparing you for the PMP.
A wealth of knowledge and insight....Stephen Mercer. I highly recommend the course, as it will provide you with the information you need to pass the PMP certification.
Stephen was the highlight of the class. His value added materials and real world examples really helps. The management of the class and his servant leadership was top notch. There is a lot of material to process and I had a hard time getting my top level flows secured in my head though, but that is a function of PMBOK 7 I think.
Stephen Mercer is next level - all the benefits of a highly knowledgeable instructor, wrapped up in the best post-graduate college professor that you have ever had - someone who is an absolutely advocate and invested in your success. Course content was brutal over 4 days and my brain exploded but Stephen made it manageable. Really targeted for success in the PMP exam AS WELL AS in project management practice

Stephen Mercer was my instructor for my 4-day intensive PMP course and he was an excellent instructor. Going into the course I wasn't sure if spending money on this was actually worth it, but the information he shared with us is beyond invaluable. He has taken the time to create a lot of supplemental material that he compiled himself to prepare his students better for passing the PMP certification exam. Everything was explained very clearly, and he took the time to really focus on techniques to pass the exam and provided a lot of question examples. Class discussions were actually extremely informative/educational since he heavily encouraged student participation. He even took the time to assign himself action items if he wasn't aware of the answers or if individuals asked for further material. I completely encourage everyone to take a course to prepare for the exam as there was a lot of information I didn't realize will be on the exam.
Excellent instructor. Mr. Stephen Spencer is very knowledgeable, and a subject matter expert. I will highly recommend him to my associates.
Stephen Mercer is a fantastic instructor. He is very knowledgeable, and the experiences he shared with us was very helpful. I really feel as though he provided me a 5 star service in this class.
I really appreciated Stephen Mercer's style of facilitation and his ability to hold our attention. He masterfully tended to the chat and also kept the class engaged and always moving forward. While the topic is a bit above what I have been exposed to in my career, I learned a great deal and feel prepared to take the test in the future with all of the resources he shared.
Stephen Mercer is very thorough in his presentation and topics covered. He ensures that you are prepared for the test and provides real life examples that help you grasp the concepts.
