Testimonials
Project Management training offered by Proportion, is one of the most comprehensive courses I have taken. This program exposed the student to a wide range of knowledge necessary to perform their responsibilities today … plus provide insight for future growth of responsibilities.
Anyone who is involved in Project Management activities, whether in architecture, industrial production and fabrication to construction, to name a few areas, should highly consider this program. The financial rewards of implementing this program far exceed the initial investment to your organization.
I have been extremely fortunate to have taken this program and highly recommend it to any organization that has staff responsible for ANY type of project or project management responsibility. Sign up now!

The course [...] comprises 23 modules, ranging from “the project management plan” to “project close out” together with overviews of procurement, legal and Health & Safety topics. There is an element of distance learning required (pre-course reading), evening assignments, practical group work, and [...] examination. The course can, however, be completed by those with little or no experience who want to complete the “knowledge” aspect of the training. Although I suspect the examination would be more difficult for someone without some Project experience. [...] Overall, this was probably the most beneficial course I have attended.

The course was excellent [and] imparts an immense amount of useful information. Without a doubt I'd strongly recommend it. If you want to ask any particular questions feel free to email me and I'll tell you exactly how it was.

I am finally taking some time to send you a thank you note regarding the project management training.
I am embarrassed after almost a year now, but I find myself starting a new project and realized how much more confident and at ease I am in doing so. This is a direct result of your comprehensive and intense program. As you know my training was in Architecture, Art and Design, which of course threw me smack in the middle of that world inhabited almost solely by steely eyed and quite often, self serving “Project Managers” . On “little” projects like the Venetian in Vegas or dealing with all the art direction in the Macau Sands properties, I had been stumbling along feeling adversarial and outnumbered trying to push along the creative side of things. Having done your course shored up the logical PM skills I picked up along the way, put them in context with the full body of skills you presented and most importantly, bolstered my confidence to stand tall and demand professionalism among my many construction colleagues. Thanks for being there with your practical exercises and examples that helped nail down the seemingly complex concepts.
Of course I would recommend your training services to anyone in today’s construction industry. It is a must for success and survival. Thanks again!
