Thank You Samer for your info.

But to be precise I was looking for somekind of a certificate course which gives me a good insight of PMBOK. If anyone has an idea please do respond.

Thanks in advance.

Siva

Dear Siva,

Of course, you have many sources in India. The best thing would be to send an email to the PMI India Chapter and ask them for their recommendations. You can also attend the local chapter meeting if they are close.

Read the information on www.pmi.org. They offer plenty of leads.

With kind regards,

Samer

Thank You Samer!

This info would be quite helpful.

Will get back in case of further query.

Thanks & Regards,
Siva

Ur experience is only 2.5 yrs.

I wud recommend u to join NICMAR (Pune / Hyderabad) - full time course (Adv. Construction Management) rather than doing PMP

NICMAR is best in India for Construction Management and far better than any university offering such courses.

Hi to all

NICMAR is well renowned in India .It is really worth doing a course in it.I have done a crash course exclusively conducted for my corporate employees .

IIT’s in India also offer excellent courses in Construction Management exclusively. Perhaps the best in India!

Hi Guys,

Can you recommend/ post a link of their websites. I would like to read the course content. Any idea about how to get the books that they selling at their bookstores.

With kind regards,

Samer
