"I feel that PMI has provided me with much more information than any other organization when it comes to coding expertise. I have found that the instructors are much more knowledgeable. PMI is also much more willing and able to provide support to its members by providing a website with a "forum" capability as well as allowing members to email specific instructors with questions -- this is not an option with any other coding/credentialing organization. Additionally, PMI is always willing to listen to its members regarding areas of training that need to be addressed, both currently and in the future!"
