Students Reviews
Joshua Ward
very good and interactive course. I spent just under 60hrs doing the actual videos, note taking, and taking the practices exams and I passed on the first try.
thank you brain sensei
Dexter
Great variety of simulators to drive success for the PMP that I passed on the 1st try thanks to BrainSensai.
Ethan
Passed the capm fairly easily after taking this course. Overall a good value, took me a bit over a month or casual studying.
Heidi
I love how Brain Sensei appeals to multiple learning styles. I was able to utilize the slides and transpose them into my own notes, watch the videos to stay engaged, and then participate in the small quizzes at the end of each section without feeling overwhelmed. Brain Sensei took the PMBOK and broke it down into manageable 'fun sized' pieces. And best of all, I passed my test with flying colors, so thanks for all the help with the studying. Definitely recommend!
Mark Agaba
So far so good. I have received timely feedback when I have had any issues and course is going good. Thank you

Excellent course with engaging content. Extremely helpful and prompt support.

Good courses with best strategic planning for learning
Rachel
Of course was fantastic and the trainer was very knowledgeable about all of the topics. I would definitely take a course from this company and the trainer again.
Sameh El Tahan
Very structured curiculum and helped me cover the whole PMP material easily in the shortest time possible. I purchased the monthly access self-paced and studied for 4 weeks only as the main source of study besides some other online full exams from different sources, then passed my PMP exam successfully. Highly recommend Brain Sensei as it's very cost effective solution compared to others, and very useful source of study. Saved me fortune and got my PMP in a very short time.

I’m will be signing up for the online course

the course was very much understandable because it was explained to the last detail...great info.

What was great course.

Very helpful

Jerry has been a great instructor and an all around delight to have class with. I also love the combination of live, virtual class and prerecorded/self-instruction material. Great value for the money!

It was eye-opening to unknown fact about oneself.

Nice, easy, clean and effective way to learn
Teclezghi
Thank you for your feedback.
Dale
Great combination of interactive material and resource availability
Wesley Nelson
Due to working full time while taking this self-paced course, I took almost the entire year to finish. Once done, I spent a few weeks going over the material to prep for the test, which I passed on the first try!
kimberley
After 5 weeks, I passed the PMP exam on the first try. The training is useful and simple to learn and use. Good luck!
Danny
Great program and affordable. This helped me review without ridiculous memorization.
Brian Calhoun
We reviewed several online PMP training courses and our decision was that Brain Sensei was by far the most well structured, comprehensive, and easy to understand option. With a 100% pass guarantee!
Furthermore, their support has been incredibly quick to respond and customer service oriented. Well pleased!
Try their Free Trial! Easy, and what do you have to lose?
Mohammad
They have a very practical learning modules that explains the basic concept of project management very well and clarifies a lot of project management terms and jargons. I found the three mock tests very helpful. I was able to pass my PMP exam on first try.
Nash
BrainSensei has been the best approach to PMP exam training I could ask for. The experience is immersive, customizable, adaptive and really makes learning fun! Reading the story of how the founders came up with an approach to studying for this beast of an exam that wasn't so focused in the minutiae of PMI jargon, I totally get the idea behind the approach. Wish I would've discovered this earlier on in my journey.
Hannah De La Rosa
Quick responses and very pleasant customer service folks overall!
Jessica Pedrick
The facilitator-led online course with all of the additional resources helped me pass my test in two months.
Diana McCulloch
Fast, accurate and helpful support as always!
Maggie
I went to the source store in Dufferin Mall to switch my internet and was very pleased with. How respectful helpful the gentleman was in the store.
George Otiki
Awesome!
Mixed methodologies (Agile and waterfall) is the right to thing for project Managers
Rafael
Great simulator.
Cary Schiff
Great Course, the year long access and customer service is top notch. I would recommend Brain Sensei to anyone looking to prepare for their PMP exam.
Tim
It was actually really great. Made some very dry materials much easier to absorb. Passed the PMP exam with flying colors on my first attempt.
PL
This course had good reviews online from previous clients so I decided to try this one. Relevant course materials and great timed practice tests allowed me to ace the actual certification exam on my first attempt. I highly recommend this course.
Penney
This is a great tool to support the PMBOK Guide. Quizzes, presentations, and videos help break down the massive amount of information that comes with the PMBOK, truly helping you prepare for the actual exam. Great way to get your 35 hours classroom credit!
Alex Jane
Brain Sensei helped me to prepare for and pass the PMP exam on the first try. I used many exam simulators and this one was by far the most similar to the exam. Im so happy I found Brain Sensei and chose to prepare with them!
Tetiana
I am a refugee from Ukraine. I applied to Brain Sensei with a request to provide me with a scholarship so that I could prove my skills and abilities for Europe where I am now due to the invasion of my country. The Brain Sensei team promptly responded to my request and provided the opportunity to study in their PMP course. I am very grateful to the Brain Sensei team and am happy to start learning! Thank you very much!
Michael
Easy to navigate the platform
Thais Greca
I really enjoyed the Brain Sensei self learning course as well as the virtual course with the instructor. I was able to pass the PMP with above target ratings for every section. I am so pleased with how easy and efficient the courses were to navigate, and how simply the PMI approach was placed into every day situations. I would highly recommend this course to everyone wanting to either freshen up on their Project skills or to master the PMP.
Brenda
Very prepared for the PMP!
Vasil
Hi Folks, good course there. More info/exercises on EV and formulas would be really helpful. Thank you very much.
Mary Garnett
Perfect program for me. I did it at my own pace, and passed the exam with flying colors.
PS
I'm very satisfied with the Brain Sensei PMP Exam Preparation Course. All 8 Modules are very well structured and detailed. This course is best for those who would like to learn at their own pace. Of course, lots of studying is needed (PMBOOK and other agile-related books and material). The customer service team is exceptional, very supportive. I had an immediate response to whatever I needed.
Darrius Cooley
This is a great course!!!!
Michelle
Great training tool! I learned a lot and realized how much training I needed to learn. Now to take my exam!
Kamal
I loved the PMP prep course and the level of learning from this. I am hoping this learning to be translated in PMP certification as well :)
Another thing to mention is the very responsive support and quickest issue resolution. I had an issue with subscription expiry and they resolved it very swiftly. Thanks!
Anastasia
phenomenal training opportunity that provides a variety of learning styles for all.
Matthew
Great way to prepare for the PMP Exam!
Daniel R
The content was spot on and I am much more confident in understanding the processes and how everything works together now. (The) course is great; however, the customer service team is Exceptional! Very responsive and thorough, and at all times; and when I had some technical difficulties (or questions) they stuck with me through resolution. Highly recommended program and company.
Jeremy
Very thorough training. By taking this course and reviewing some free online study materials, I was able to hit above target in every category.

I'm very satisfied with the Brain Sensei PMP Exam Preparation Course. All 8 Modules are very well structured and detailed. I believe that practice exams included in the course helped me a lot with the preparation for my PMP Exam. I appreciate Brain Sensei for their amazing course and for the awesome service. They responded to all my requests immediately. Thanks. Highly recommended.

Studied BrainSensei for 11 days and passed. Succinct and highly informational chapters. The 4 practice exams are marginally more difficult then the PMP.
Borderline impossible to fail the PMP if you pass this course.
Lusine Nazaryan
Great course! They break down all concepts in a very clear and interactive way, that doesn't put you to sleep. Would recommend to anyone who is looking to pass the PMP exam with flying colors.

The Brain Sensei PMP program is a wonderful program that condenses the PMBOK into digestible and retainable bites leveraging the power of story telling. If you're looking for a program that will get you your credit hours but also help establish a foundation of PMI knowledge this is the program for you!
Lee
Passed first attempt
Minh Vo
Truly the best course in town if you wish to pass the PMP exam on the first try. I love the idea of playing the role of the samurai and practice your project management skill in her shoes. And not to forget, the generous amount of practice exam gave me just the right dose of confidence before taking the real one. Highly recommended
Gael Riethmuller
The BrainSensei PMP preparation course provided me with all the material required to be ready for the exam. It is well structured, explains the concepts clearly, and most importantly, provides ample training questions through the four mock exams and assessment questions at the end of each module.
I passed the exam with Above Target in all sections on the first attempt.
Ronnie
Overall I really liked this learning course. It was very helpful and allowed me to be well prepared for the exam. The 2nd and 3rd practice exam are great to give you real example questions and help prepare you for what to expect.
BrainSensei's customer service was the best. I had to delay taking my test due to COVID and they extended my membership for free. They went above and beyond my expectation which was great.
Only changes I would recommend is to add 1 or 2 more practice exams like the 2nd and 3rd exam and get rid of the agile practice exam. This is not a real focus of the test and therefore is not really applicable in my opinion.
G. Buchs
BrainSensei developed a great learning method to prepare for the PMP certification exam. Their customer service is always very professional, fast, spot on and dedicated to your success. I recommend them.
Joseph Mather
I've sent several emails to BrainSensei (one of them not so nice, but the rest were okay) and the team has always been so polite in answering the questions. I'm a very straight-forward person and don't like the PMI-ism type questions because they seem like 'gotchas' or traps, and this is not how I manage my team.
I took the Master of Project course (which was garbage) then failed the PMP exam. Throughout the PMP exam I felt so out of touch. Even with the first practice exam on BrainSensei I felt out of place, but I am not getting the hang of things.
I hope to pass the exam on the second attempt!
The brain sensei experience has been *miles* ahead of the Master of Project garbage. Brain Sensei should be proud of both their product and of their team! I love getting replies to my concerns so quickly.
Nice work :) !!!
Marc Vazquez
This course was great. it laid a great foundation for the PMP exam.
Dan
very useful
Joan
Very easy to work with and quality product.
Jerome
Outstanding job
Amir Afifi
This is by far the best way to prepare yourself for the PMP exam. The material is presented in a unique and engaging way that makes learning it easy and also fun!
The company behind this course is also very professional and responsive. Keep up the great work!
Andrew Grady
I have studied with other programs and I didn’t feel prepared. After a short time with Brain Sensei, I had the confidence to succeed on exam day, which I did on the first try after studying with Brain Sensei. It was worth every penny.
Ashley
Great program
Derek
Brain Sensei is great tool to have in the study arsenal while preparing for the PMP exam.
Delfin Gallegos
I really enjoyed the modules and content offered by Brain Sensei! I passed the PMP Exam on the first try and would recommend this course to anyone who is looking for a great PMP Exam Prep.
Mohammad Ali
Passed my PMP on first attempt using Brain Sensei Prep course.
Laura
Quick and helpful response. Thanks!!
Tracy
Absolutely Fantastic learning software. Highly recommend it! Very well thought out and creative. Really enjoyed my study time. Excellent mock tests and mock exams. So so helpful. Thank you Brain Sensei Team for being part of my PMP journey!
Cameron
The prep materials provided plenty of content which prepared me well for the PMP exam. The questions were packed with information.
said durra
I am very impressed with this learning system. The content is laid out in a way that will make any learner understand all the process groups and ITTOs in order to understand Project management and be equipped to excel in the test. The learning system is engaging and fun at the same time. It's very different than other learning material which is composed mostly of videos. Some improvements are needed, but in my opinion Brain Sensei is great value for money
Charlene LU
At first, I was attracted to Brain Sensei training for their original learning program using a Samurai's story. And indeed it made the whole learning experience funnier - so easier. I felt like the Samurai.
Then, I was amazed by The Brain Sensei Team's reactivity and help when I reached out through contact@brainsensei.com
Their support was constantly reliable and efficient. I appreciated their professionalism and didn't feel on my own.
At last, the course and the practice exams proved to be efficient since I passed the PMP exam - with 'Above Targe't in all Domains.
So thank you so much Brain Sensei Team !!
Charlene
Jonathan Williams
Overall very good. Got stuck a few times trying to find resources which I should have downloaded the before starting the program. Customer service has been great.
Eric Browne
SO far I am thoroughly enjoying the Brain Sensei PMP prep course. I have taken a Project management class as a part of my degree which I recently completed and project management has always interested me. I find the course to be educational and easy to follow. I am grateful that this course has been designed in such a way that is simple to understand all of the complexities in project management and that allows me to study at my own pace.
Gary Nicol
Clear and precise explanations of how things work. I was never lost navigating the course.
Jamal
A smart approach to present the information which makes it fun and engaging while at the same time preparing for the PMP exam. Brain Sensei differentiates itself from other PMP exam preps in that it delivers the knowledge through the use of storytelling technique.
I recommend this course because it will help you pass your PMP exam on the first try.
Josh
Loved the story telling and the practice exams. I felt very prepared when the actual exam came around.
Claire
One of a kind training that was truly engaging!
Rossetta
Excellent course for preparing for the PMP exam in a fun and engaging way! The practice questions resemble the actual questions on the exam making it a completely worthwhile experience.
Jackie
I passed the PMP exam after taking Brain Sensei's Online PMP Certification Exam Prep. The practice exam questions were so similar to the questions that appeared on the exam. On exam day, when I sat down to take the test and started running through the questions I felt so relieved!
The practice exams are also timed so you get more comfortable with the exam experience and feel better prepared when you sit down to take the test.
The other differentiator was the video content throughout the modules. The concepts are taught through a story of a young samurai defending her kingdom. This will probably be the only PMP prep course where you can learn all the knowledge areas and feudal Japan at the same time.
I'd recommend this course not just because of the videos but because it helped me pass my exam on the first try.
Chris
Loved the unique approach and it still had all the info I'd expect from a full PMP exam prep course. Very responsive on questions too.
Emeka
Awesome
Katarzyna
The course was well done, visually really cool, I learnt a lot. But I really hate questions like 'in which process (out of many) this particular document is revised'. Those were very tiring and forced me to make screens all the time and focus on irrelevant things in place of knowledge that really helps in project management.
Daniel
somewhat monotonous. The entertainment feature is nice with the story.
Daniel
Overall I liked the course which helped reinforce PMP concepts. I did feel the questions on the practice exams were much different types of question than I saw on the exam, which made me feel unprepared. Scored well and passed so no complaints overall. Thank you!
Levon
I understand that PMI course is very useful for me to improve my knowledge
Hope I can find a job related to it
Thank you for this opportunity and your success
Ted

Aleksandra
Quite repetitive content and I missed life examples which would be more interactive.
Robbie
The course is amazing at teaching the basics but the exams don’t match up with the PMBOK vocabulary or really the slide content. So many questions on agile project management but not even an entire section dedicated to it.
Doug
I liked the unique take to make the classes more interesting, Samurai... The classes, along with the PMI Study Hall, definitely helped to prepare me for passing the PMP exam. Thank you.
Francesco
The tool is very user friendly and interactive, and i found many of the activities useful for learning. Personally i think it could include more video based explanations instead of relying so much on the user reading, to make the experience more engaging.
Geoff
I found the content of the PMP Preparation course to be very detailed and thorough. I also greatly appreciated its attachment to a theme. I would have finished the course had I not decided to switch careers.
The only improvements I can suggest are to update the website and course user interface, as it looks very old. There are also some typos within the course.
Thank you!
Alessandra
The system was very helpful and I did pass the PMP test.
Just one suggestion: I wish that we could select by areas of Domain to perform the tests.
Thanks a lot.
Kira
Happy with the product.
Brad
Overall course and practice exams are very helpful. Could use more time on Agile throughout the material
Patricia R Lee
I expected more interactive material. But the practice tests are invaluable with 1500 questions!!
Anthony
I think the course is good. I wouldn't mind a few more videos and audible in the trainings. I do a lot do reading. I bought the PMBOK book on the side and sometimes have trouble connect the class to the PMBOK book. I do enjoy your format. I am learning. Personally I need buckle down and spend more time on it.
Pamla Kendrick
I passed my test on the first try! Excellent learning tool. There were some questions that I found to be confusing or contradictory with the answers, so I sent those to the Brain Sensei team. They always responded quickly, even on the weekend! Some adjustments are being made because of my feedback. I appreciate their care and that they take the time to support during the studying period.
Matthew
Engaging, self-pacing course that contains accurate content. Prepared me well for the PMP exam which I passed on my first attempt.
This course is best for those who would like to learn at their own pace. For example, I completed it over the span of 2 and a half months.
Deidra
The course was thorough and the practice exams enhanced my learning. However, I am having a hard time receiving my PDU credit for taking the course.
Barbara
The story approach was good but I feel like I wasn't ready for some of the questions on the site.
Mohmed kheir
very good but needs to be more updated
eric
Excellent test prep for the exam, though some more practice tests on agile would be beneficial
James
It is often hard to figure out what the right answer was on a quiz or practice exam. Frequently, the correct answer is buried in a lot of text about what options are wrong.
John
Great customer support. Wish more Agile modules were available.
Derek
helpful focus, detailed testing.
Bevin
Good courses, lots of text and reading. Not as many videos or interactive pieces that I was expecting. And some misspelled words.
Heide
It was great!
Vasily
The Course documents should remain open for longer than 6 months, given that PMI gives you 365 days to prepare for exam. Also, the option to extend visibility for the course documents, costs almost a 5th of the course, but opens up the docs for just 30 more days. Propose to extend this to 90 days at the very least.
Debraj
The format of the prep-course is great overall and a great alternative to reading the PMBOK. Barring a few minor glitches here and there, the flow of information ensures that concepts are well understood not only from the point of examination but to the point of application in day to day professional activities.
Explanations provided in the answers of prep exams (apart from the 1st one) are also a key to understanding the thought process to be applied. With the focus being on Agile approaches from 2021, the information in the course seemed adequate to cover the concepts. All the Best to all aspirants.
Scott Conn
Your course, quizzes at the end of most modules and practice exams truly challenged me. I definitely derived the value and knowledge I was looking for in preparation for taking the PMP Certification Test. In particular, I appreciated the explanations that popped-up in the tests after an answer was submitted - very educational and helpful to my learning/understanding the material and concepts better.
Some areas that could be improved (and some of this is nit-picking) include:
* Some of the grammar and overall sentence structures, particularly in the latest set of practice exams, needs to be cleaned-up. Some were missing 'of', 'for, or had an extra 'an' in the narrative - got confusing at times.
* In the practice exams, I'd like to see shorter sentences rather than the flurry of 'and' and 'or' conjunctions that made reading the sentences go on forever (had to read them multiple times to truly understand their meaning).
That said, I enjoyed the overall online course taking experience and thank you for accommodating my requested time extensions.
Best regards,
Scott Conn
Jerome
Liked it. Need access for longer though.
James
What I like best about Brain Sensei is the interactive nature of the course. I think this material would be numbing if delivered as simple lectures with slides. This method is an improvement on that. On the other hand, an in-person course, while more expensive, would likely be even more useful if you have the funds and the time. I haven't taken the PMP exam yet, so I can't comment on how useful the practice tests are.
Jill Finkelstein
The course was great, though I found a lot of parts hard to comprehend. I feel a lot more prepared and better skilled to manage projects in my career. Thanks, Brain Sensei.
Glen
I was very pleased with the preparation provided for the PMP certification. I went through the materials twice and passed the exam on the first try. A couple of the questions need to be polished up, but very good training overall.
Ann
The storyline provides excellent examples that provide context for understanding the core concepts and processes
Muneer
Good self paced learning tool
Andrew
Course is made for people who are already grounded in the material, not for someone that needs all the basics. Was budget friendly and OK content.
Riaan
Overall layout is good, but there are some quality issues. Progress isn't always saved across all devices and progress gets lost. Some small spelling mistakes. I loved the practical storyline...
Amir
Need improvement in presenting more relevant real exam type questions. The practice exams are too simple and easy and do not prepare you for the real exam. Otherwise, good concept presenting material
Kevin
Teaches the PMP in a solid manner, some things you need to know as a potential consumer:
-The Samurai backstory is extremely short, and didn’t really assist me with recall in any in-depth way. It only gave broad brush-strokes as to what each phase entailed.
-MOST of what was on the test was covered in the lessons, however if I had zero real prior PM knowledge prior to the test, I would have failed.
-The first practice test forces you, as the student to actually read into the PMBOK, which was a benefit in the long run as it assisted me with quickly referencing what I needed to find.
-The course will likely cover wave tops and subjects, forcing me to self-study for a week before my test... not a bad deal all things considered.
-Brain Sensei’s course has incorporated Agile into one of their practice tests, and this test IS mandatory. This may seem strange, and I didn’t get a satisfactory reason why I needed to take a purely Agile test when I only wanted to take the PMP, for anyone else in this scenario, this is the reason: In June, PMI is revamping the PMP test to include Agile as a significant portion of the PMP. Brain Sensei is just ahead of the curve trying to get students prepared... fret not.
Their customer service is extremely responsive and does take care of their members. My program had a couple bugs, and the customer service fixed my problems within 24 hours.
All in all... it was absolutely worth the money for me.
Glenn
The content is good and easy to understand
Rohan Punit
This review is based on completing all course work through module 102. The story and interactive nature of the course are helpful for learning and relating the material. It would be nice to have the page numbers to the PMBOK guide where references are made to it. Other information that will be helpful, are the explanations to the practice questions at the end of each module. These are provided only after immediately answering the questions. Having these available in the score summary from the 'history' tab will be helpful to refresh why the answer is correct and other options are not.
Nikki Cordy
Overall I would rate this course an 8/10. I liked how there were exams towards the end of every module and I felt that it was very useful having it laid out in different scenarios. I rate it only an 8/10 as I had some glitch/software issues and lost my progress resulting in me having to re-do modules/exams multiple times. All in all, that was maybe useful in the end as it was a way for me study or 're-learn' the course material.
Thank you!
Sonia
Good course, but a few grammatical errors with how some questions were worded.
Sergei
It was good!
