UK : As the global audience of iPhone / iPod embracing this handheld internet-connected multimedia player and smartphone gadget, the Project Management Advanced Business Consulting Inc (PM-ABC.com), a registered education provider of Project Management Institute, who boosted the growing rate of Certified Project Managers in Taiwan to the world’s fastest one in the past three years, has developed the world’s first Project Management audio book. This audio book integrates learning activities with the versatileness and mobility of iPhone / iPod, where a joint force of playing and learning, project management and entertainment, has made a great manifestation on this 21th-century magic device.
iPhone and iPod are the most fantastic 3G products developed and marketed by Apple Inc. Not only have they re-defined the mobile phone and MP3 player, but their 3×5 inches multi-touch screen has become a fantastic stage for the display of the most advanced wireless technologies.
The versatility of the device includes a GPS that supports global map searching, internet connection that supports emailing, web browsing, video-audio viewing, and an exclusive online shopping platform specially developed by Apple. Anything you can imagine in terms of internet and mobile phone can be realized within this palm-sized touch screen. Besides, it also allows to play games or do learning activities. As a matter of fact, if you look at the number of the games and learning software on the Apple’s iTune platform, and their purchase rate, you will soon realize, many of this little, fancy and miscellaneous software have infiltrated every aspects of people’s life. Their function can no longer be described as “time killing.”
The PM-ABC Inc. sees the versatileness and beauty of iPhone / iPod, and attempts to test the possibility of delivering quality management knowledge through this gadget. After successfully developed a world-leading project management professional (PMP®) exam simulation system three years ago, the PM-ABC Inc. continues to develop new learning products that can fit in with modern people’s fragmented learning life. In this sense, Apple’s iPhone and iPod prove to be a very ideal media. In the end of this May, the PM-ABC Inc. successfully delivers the world’s first PMP® audio book, in which the Nine Knowledge Areas of Project Management are provided.
How much potential does this internet-connected handheld device have? – A device being named as “the Invention of the Year in 2007” by the Time magazine. After developing this audio book, Roger Chou, the Director of PM-ABC Inc. said, “Absolutely unlimited!” His original attempt was to develop a PMP® audio book for project managers, senior managers and people who intend to understand more about project management. He has always wanted to produce a product that can enable people to learn quickly and effectively. Now, this newly developed software for iPhone / iPod users seems to have reached this objective. Moreover, it has the potential to become the most convenient and effective learning method for project management. This is a result Roger Chou has never expected.
Roger Chou also said, these audio books are developed from the PM-ABC’s best sellers “the mnemonic” series which are highly rated by their users. Each audio book is presented in a mnemonics format and contains an explanation of one of the five process groups of project management. In the past three years, this mnemonic system has successfully helped over 2500 people to pass the PMP® Exam. Therefore, Roger decides to further develop them into audio books for iPhone / iPod users who are interested in project management. Users can listen to it while commuting, walking, or even relaxing in bed. The simple and easy to understand explanations in PM-ABC’s e-books will enable users to memorize with ease all the definitions of the five process groups and the 42 constituent processes. As a result, they will have a quick and accurate recall of project management when taking the PMP® Exam.
The first episode of the audio books is free for download, the second episode is divided into three parts, and each one costs 1.99 USD. Every user is entitled a free access to the exam simulation of 200 questions provided by PMSuccess® for 7 days. All the 3C lovers are welcome to test on the learning software; you may find something beyond expectation!
