• It breaks down each domain into a digestible amount of information. It made it easy for me to map out my studies by conquering one domain a week, with the last week or two to do practice exams.”

    Joana Brenckle, Senior Events Specialist, The Broad Institute
  • I had studied the materials but hadn't taken a test in years so I was really nervous about it. Reviewing the modules in the course and taking a full test was really helpful. I felt prepared to take the exam -- and passed!”

    Alyssa Barnum, Director of Conferences, America Jail Association
  • I cannot say enough good things about Carolyn's CMP exam prep course. I do not know where I would have even begun without this course. She breaks up the information in such a digestible way and lays out a great plan for taking it all in. Practicing answering questions in the live class was invaluable. Having her explain answers and how and why to think about things was such a great resource. I owe a lot to Carolyn and her course for my success on the exam.   

    Meggan Lawson, CMP, AVP-Marketing Events
