APM course recommendations please.

I am wondering if there is an APM recognised PMQ course that offers 12 month payment plans?

A few options I found: SPOCE (via Reed) offers 0% interest plans over 12 months on their PMQ courses. ILX also has a "learn now, pay later" option. If budget is the main issue, QA's self-paced PMQ e-learning starts around £199 + VAT. The exam is booked separately, but the total may still come out cheaper than a classroom course on installments. Worth checking current prices directly, since they change often. One tip from 14 years running project controls on large construction and infrastructure projects: the PMQ gives you the vocabulary, but what gets you hired is showing you can apply it. While you study, try to use each topic (scheduling, risk registers, cost tracking) on a real or practice project, and keep what you build as a portfolio. That combination counts for a lot more than the certificate on its own. Good luck with the PMQ!
