After availability of two new courses on Project Management Professional (PMP) exam - PMP 35 Contact Hours Online and PMP Live Lessons, two pertinent questions are these:
- Which course to go for - PMP 35 Contact Hours or PMP Live Lessons?
- What are the differences?
Both these courses are now being used by aspiring PMI-PMPs around the world, to clear the PMP exam and/or earn the PMP 35 contact hours certificate.

Other Main Differences
I’ve outlined other main differences in the below two tables. Actually, it’s one table, but I’ve segregated them into two in order to have better visibility and understanding.
The second part of this table is noted below.
*Note* Price Update [2025]:
- For PMP 35 Contact Hours: $85 USD/ Rs 7,229 (6 months access) [details]
- For PMP Live Lessons: $379 USD/ Rs 32,219 (6 months access) [details]
Conclusion
I’ve enabled many PMPs, who have used my book, I Want To Be A PMP and/or Practical PMP with MS Project, Practical PMP with Primavera P6 courses over years to clear the RMP exam.
Few of them written their PMP Success Stories.
When you purchase the courses, I’m also involved with you throughout your journey. Many providers can’t do that, because they don’t have the subject matter understanding. They are merely course aggregators.
For these two new courses on PMP, I've informed the goals and objectives. I've also outlined other differences. These, I believe, will help you to choose the course of your choice.
With either of these courses, I firmly believe that you:
- Get the best value for your money.
- Will have the content with the latest risk management standards, practice guides and the needed books.
- Will understand the content clearly, which boosts your confidence.
Above all, if you prepare sincerely, you have a fair chance to clear the PMP exam and be a certified PMI-PMP.
