PMBOK5 to PMBOK6 Bridging Course

Velopi is the ideal partner for us to work with because of their industry reach, reputation and success  in Project Management.  Velopi were quick to adapt to the vagaries of the public sector and our students experience Velopi and the UCC Faculty as one team, which is wonderful. They just see the Lecturer, that’s how seamless it is.    The Velopi and UCC relationship has been very successful because of our shared mind set on the importance of continuous evaluation, effectiveness and efficiency. The Velopi team is rigorous in terms of evaluating clients and students alike, they  listen to the market and help us to respond to new educational opportunities."

From working with Velopi, we have been able to expand our course catalogue offering to our Members with a suite of high calibre, industry respected Project Management courses that meet our Members differing needs. Velopi is one of the very few training companies that have helped me in marketing the open programs that we run. I think we have a very collaborative relationship with Velopi where there is a 101% effort by Velopi which has built my confidence in them and significantly differentiates them from other vendors. Velopi make it easier. So why wouldn't you choose the person who makes it easier?”

As a Project Manager without previous experience, Velopi’s training was invaluable.  Although intense, the instructor delivered the content in an engaging and fun way. I was able to immediately apply it to the projects I was working on and it gave me a sound recognised foundation for my career in Project Management.”

Brian O'Riordan

As a partner, Velopi's project management knowledge was exceptional, really strong. I think that was one of the key benefits I found with Seamus and his team. They understood the environment from their experience of working with other large medical device companies and that we had to find a process that would fit our business model and not try and shape our business model around what an ideal PMO should look like.”

Brian Dillon

Principal Polymer Manufacturing Engineer, Boston Scientific Galway

Velopi listened to us and tailored the elements to fit our unique needs in a practical manner. Their expertise and sharing of their experiences with similar companies helped identify what would or would not work for us. We are now working to an internationally recognised, world class, industry standard in the PMI and continue to work with Velopi on process reviews and training our engineers and teams.
