Unemployed Professionals - Training Opportunities

Project Management Academy recognizes that one of the best ways to navigate an unexpected career transition is to use the downtime to strengthen your career path and determine how to best market yourself to prospective employers. Studies show that one of the best ways to do that is to ‘credentialize’ your pre-existing skillsets through widely-recognized professional certifications to help your resume stand out. Some employers may also require employees to have certain certifications to be considered for a role. Our primary mission is to help individuals propel their careers and gain education needed to earn professional certifications so they can better compete in the job market.

In response to record levels of unemployment, PMA and its affiliate company, Watermark Learning, are pleased to offer significant discounts to individuals in an unexpected career transition for the following certification courses:

These are among the highest-demand certifications for professionals across industries and job functions, according to analysis of online job postings by CareerOneStop, sponsored by the U.S. Department of Labor. Students enrolled in these courses will enjoy full access to all of Project Management Academy's and Watermark Learning’s online tools (video lectures, mock exams, tracking dashboard, exercises, downloads, etc.).

Testimonials

"I was recently laid off due to Covid-19, and began to look into taking classes/certifications to help me when the job market opens up. I figured that when I am working I don't have time to invest in education/certification, but I was unsure if I should be spending money during this uncertain period. I reached out to Nancy Larsen at to discuss my concerns and review course options. Nancy spent over 30 min with me talking through learning tracks and the benefits of each in the market today based on my goals and priorities and provided me a reduced rate as I had been a displaced worker."

Diana G.

"Once I received the certification, updated my resume and LinkedIn profile, the leads kept coming. I still receive interview requests to date. My skill set, along with my certification truly put me a step above the other candidates! Thank you for helping me and my family. I can honestly say without my certification, I would have never been provided this opportunity."

Jessica D.

"I enjoyed the real life examples and indication of what tools are used currently as well as what to expect. Great templates and examples to have, good starting point in my new job, and can also speak to this in interviews."

Santina C.

"I believe the Project Management classes through Watermark Learning are what opened doors for me. Once I took your classes, I was bombarded with recruiters. I'm still receiving one or two opportunities per week."

Vicki Van A.

"I wanted to let you know I accepted a job yesterday working as a Business Change Analyst. The classes at Watermark definitely helped during the interview and all the workbooks will be brought in to my cube as reference material. Thanks for all your help and encouragement!"

Laura F.

"Since I am looking for a new job in the current competing market, I decided on getting the Project Management Professional certification from the Project Management Institute. After analyzing the relevant training providers in the Houston area, I chose Project Management Academy as my best training option to get this certification in the shortest time and at a competitive price. Nowadays, after passing the PMP exam in the first attempt and 6 weeks after the training course, I can say that PMA was indeed my best choice. I am very thankful and would like to acknowledge the excellent job done by Dan Garza and the rest of the PMA team."
