Founding Cohort — $500/month
You probably don't need more PMP content.
You need to know:
-
What should I work on next?
-
Where am I actually weak?
-
Am I really ready to take the exam?
That's what VIP is built to answer.
VIP PMP Coaching gives you direct, personalized support from Steven Blakeney throughout your PMP preparation.
Instead of following another generic study schedule, we'll use your exam timeline, diagnostic results, practice-question performance, mock exams, and individual weaknesses to determine exactly where your effort should go next.
Stop Guessing About Your PMP Preparation
PMP candidates rarely struggle because there isn't enough material available.
The bigger problem is figuring out what actually matters.
You may have already:
-
Taken a PMP course
-
Watched hours of videos
-
Read study guides
-
Answered hundreds of practice questions
-
Tried multiple study plans
And still be wondering:
Am I ready?
Or worse:
What am I missing?
VIP gives you someone actively reviewing your progress, identifying gaps, challenging your reasoning, and adjusting your preparation as your performance changes.
What You Get With VIP
Weekly 1:1 Coaching With Steven
We meet every week to review your progress, identify problems, work through difficult concepts or scenario reasoning, and determine your next priorities.
This isn't a group coaching call.
It's your preparation, your performance, and your exam.
Your Personalized PMP Study Plan
Your plan is built around:
-
Your exam date
-
Your current preparation level
-
Diagnostic results
-
Practice-question performance
-
Mock-exam results
-
Knowledge gaps
-
Scenario-reasoning weaknesses
-
Available study time
And it changes when the evidence says it should.
​
Full PMP Accelerator Access
VIP includes access to the complete PMP Accelerator so you have structured lessons available to complete the knowledge required to pass the PMP Exam.
Full Question Bank + Mock Exams
Practice is used diagnostically—not just to generate another score.
We'll use your results to determine where you're improving, where you're still vulnerable, and what needs attention before exam day.
Ongoing Readiness Assessment
One of the most important questions in PMP preparation is:
“Am I actually ready?”
We'll continuously evaluate your performance so your exam decision is based on evidence rather than hope.
Private Between-Session Access
When something comes up between coaching sessions, you have a private channel to reach Steven for appropriate PMP preparation questions and support.
Session Recordings
Your coaching sessions are recorded so you can revisit explanations, recommendations, and action items.
Resume + LinkedIn Review
VIP includes one professional resume and LinkedIn review to help you position your PMP alongside your project-management experience.
Exam-Day Preparation Call
Before your exam, we'll review final readiness, exam strategy, pacing, mindset, and the specific things you need to remember walking into the test.
The VIP Coaching Process
Diagnose → Plan → Practice → Review → Remediate → Reassess → Exam
We start by understanding where you actually are.
Then we build your preparation around evidence.
Every week we ask:
-
What does this candidate need to work on next to improve their probability of passing?
-
That's the difference between VIP and simply buying more PMP content.
Who VIP Is For
VIP may be a strong fit if you:
-
Have your PMP exam approaching
-
Have failed the PMP previously
-
Have been studying but aren't sure you're progressing
-
Don't know whether you're actually exam-ready
-
Struggle with scenario-based questions
-
Need accountability to stay consistent
-
Have weak areas you can't clearly identify
-
Feel overwhelmed by conflicting PMP advice and resources
-
Want direct feedback on your reasoning and performance
-
Want an experienced PMP coach helping guide your preparation
You also need to be willing to do the work.
VIP provides direction, diagnosis, intervention, and accountability.
You still have to execute the plan.
​
Who VIP Is NOT For
VIP isn't the right choice for everyone.
-
It's probably not for you if:
-
You're just beginning to explore whether you want the PMP
-
You mainly need a structured self-paced PMP course
-
You aren't willing to complete practice questions and mock exams
-
You can't commit to a realistic exam timeline
-
You're looking for someone to do the work for you
-
You expect unlimited, around-the-clock access to a coach
If what you primarily need is a complete structured PMP preparation system you can work through independently, the PMP Accelerator is probably the better fit.
Founding VIP Cohort
Founding VIP Cohort
I'm opening VIP with a deliberately small founding cohort.
-
5 members maximum
-
$500/month founding rate
The first five members receive the founding rate of $500/month for as long as they remain continuously enrolled in VIP.
The cohort is capped because this is intentionally a high-touch coaching program.
This allows for Steven to carve out the required time needed for each candidate to provide a highly structured, world class offering.
Fast Track
-
For candidates preparing to take the PMP within approximately 8 weeks.
-
Minimum participation for Pass Guarantee eligibility: 2 consecutive months.
-
Founding investment: $1,000 total over two months.
Standard Track
-
For candidates preparing over approximately 12 weeks.
-
Minimum participation for Pass Guarantee eligibility: 3 consecutive months.
-
Founding investment: $1,500 total over three months.
Your appropriate track is determined during the qualification process based on your preparation status and exam timeline.
The 4e Pass Guarantee
If you follow the VIP preparation process, complete the required work, and still don't pass the PMP exam, we're not going to simply wish you luck and send you on your way.
The 4e Pass Guarantee is designed around a simple principle:
If you do your part, we'll stand behind the preparation system.
How You Qualify
To remain eligible for the guarantee, you must actively participate in your agreed VIP preparation plan.
That includes:
-
Remaining continuously enrolled for the minimum required VIP period
-
Following your personalized study plan
-
Attending your scheduled coaching sessions
-
Completing assigned PMP Accelerator lessons or remediation work
-
Completing required practice questions and mock exams
-
Reviewing and acting on coaching feedback
-
Maintaining your agreed exam timeline
-
Sitting for the PMP exam within the agreed preparation window
-
Providing your official exam performance report if you do not pass
Fast Track
For candidates preparing to sit the PMP within approximately 8 weeks:
-
Exam booked no later than 8 weeks from VIP start
-
Minimum 2 consecutive months of VIP participation
-
Founding investment: $1,000
Standard Track
For candidates preparing over approximately 12 weeks:
-
Exam booked no later than 12 weeks from VIP start
-
Minimum 3 consecutive months of VIP participation
-
Founding investment: $1,500
What Happens If You Don't Pass?
If you meet all 4e Pass Guarantee eligibility requirements and do not pass your first PMP exam attempt, we will continue working with you for up to 4 additional weeks at no additional charge.
That remediation period includes:
-
Up to 4 additional 1:1 coaching sessions with Steven
-
Review of your official PMP exam performance report
-
A revised remediation plan based on your exam results
-
Targeted review of remaining weak areas
-
Continued access to the PMP Accelerator, question bank, and mock exams during the remediation period
-
Ongoing readiness review as you prepare for one retake
To remain eligible during the remediation period, you must continue completing the agreed study and practice activities and actively participate in the revised preparation plan.
The guarantee applies to one PMP retake and does not provide a cash refund.
The remediation period ends after 4 weeks or once the retake is completed, whichever comes first.
Full eligibility requirements and terms are confirmed before enrollment.
​
What the Guarantee Does — and Doesn't — Mean
No training provider or coach can control the PMP examination or guarantee that PMI will award a credential.
The 4e Pass Guarantee is therefore not a promise that you will automatically pass the exam.
It's a commitment that if you meet the agreed participation requirements, 4e stands behind the VIP preparation process and the specific remedy described above if your first attempt is unsuccessful.
The guarantee does not apply when required preparation activities are not completed, coaching participation requirements are not met, or the candidate materially departs from the agreed exam-preparation plan.
Full Pass Guarantee terms and eligibility requirements are confirmed before VIP enrolment.
Not Sure Whether You Need VIP?
That's exactly why I don't want you blindly purchasing it.
VIP is a high-touch coaching program, and I want to make sure it's actually the right level of support for you.
Tell me where you are in your PMP preparation, when you're planning to take the exam, and what's giving you the most trouble.
-
If VIP makes sense, we'll talk about the next step.
-
If the Accelerator or free community is a better fit, I'll tell you that instead.

Submitting an application does not obligate you to enroll. VIP acceptance is based on preparation needs, exam timeline, commitment, and program fit.
