About Aileen Ellis

PMP Exam Hacker & Coach | Helping Project Managers Pass the Current PMP® Exam Fast – Without Wasting Time or MoneyAs the founder of AME Group Inc. and the sole instructor, I’ve personally helped thousands of project managers pass the PMP exam on their first try. My approach is simple and powerful: active learning through real PMP sample questions. Instead of passive reading, we “hack” tough questions together — dissecting why the right answer is right and the wrong ones are wrong. This builds real exam thinking and speed.Join my FREE weekly PMP Hacker SessionsEvery week I run live sessions where we actively work through PMP sample questions together. These are completely free and a great way to experience my teaching style.

Aileen\'s program solved that problem with incredibly detailed breakdowns for every question, explaining why answers were right or wrong, what keywords either clued you in to that answer or eliminated other answers, where you can look for more information, and real world applications.\"“What truly set this course apart was the Aileen herself, she consistently made herself available outside of the sessions to answer questions, clarify difficult topics, and provide additional guidance. That level of support made the learning process much less stressful and far more effective.”“What you get with this course is not only all of the online content, including videos and practice exams, but you also get access to Aileen, which is extremely valuable. She helped me prepare my PMP exam application which was incredibly helpful.\"See all reviews: also the author of multiple PMP exam prep publications on Amazon, including the popular Quickstudy series PMBOK Guide, PMP Exam Prep, and Agile Project management.Right now is the perfect time:The current PMP exam is retiring soon (July 2026).
