The PMI-ACP course itself is very interactive – even though dense in information, your attention can’t get lost. Mihai isn’t just giving lectures from textbooks, but real-life examples and keeps you engaged. I cannot recommend him enough, a phenomenal trainer – extremely supportive and dedicated even after training, he helps you cultivate the agile mindset needed for success.

Great PSM trainer and overall experience During the online live class of PSM I (June 26 & 27) held by the one and only Mihai Olaru, I had the real joy of expanding my Agile and Scrum knowledge, while also having a lot of AHA moments with regards to the Scrum Master's world of choices. The materials presented, the practicality of the class in itself were so well thought out, and delivered, that I would enroll once again just for the fun of it. Frankly speaking, I highly and openly recommend Mihai as a trainer, he knows the deal!

Interactive and comprehensive Scrum Training. Mihai did a wonderful job as a Scrum Trainer during the training I attended through University of Westminster. Not only he displayed his vast knowledge and deep insights into Scrum but he was patient, took time to answer questions from every participant and made the session, spread over 2 days, interactive and interesting. The breakout rooms provided ample opportunity to share ideas with others in the group and Mihai provided his expert opinion explaining how and what needs to be done when using Scrum.

Mihai's experience and knowledge in Scrum was of a significant value to the training, providing additional clarifications when needed, as well as sharing personal experience.

Agile - Scrum for Teams

I am working as a technical manager in a software company and I joined this training in order to get more information about Scrum best practices and initially, I hadn't absolutely no intention to get this certification. In the end, the PMI-ACP training was, sincerely, more then I hoped and truly opened my eyes about the diversity and pragmatism of agile technologies. Mihai Olaru is a great trainer and he made us believe that all the problems have a solution and after three days of course, I was sure that I need to continue to get more details about the mindset behind agile technologies and getting the certification appeared to be the next step in that direction. Now, after few months and holding the certification, I think this is a great achievement and and it was worth all the effort.

As an IT professional I've been doing Agile development for some time, without any serious theoretical support.

Afterwords I continued by getting the PMI-ACP certification and Mihai coached me through this process. Now I feel that my agile mindset is better structured and more effective than before. I also obtained more leverage in convincing my colleagues, managers and clients of the agile benefits and it's capacity in delivering successful products. It all started with this course and I want to thank Mihai for it!

I feel that his experience in the field is a critical factor in the success of my endeavor as he can relate to the situations quickly giving examples of how to take on challenges and assess how different actions impact the future development. The training was an opportunity to understand how other teams are taking on similar challenges that I also faced and Mihai is a person that likes to point out what you can learn from someone’s failure or success, making the whole group work as a team in the 3 days. The emphasis on real life scenarios and solutions make this one of the top trainings to go through for an aspiring or experienced project manager.

Mihai is a fantastic trainer that I discovered in January 2018, while I was participating @ "TARGET PMI-ACP® CERTIFICATION" course. Good insight, strong recommendations, excellent advisor and partner for the certification journey. More than this, he helped me with a scheme of learning plan that was crucial for obtaining the certification. Before exam he took the time to block some virtual meetings for clarification, for solidifying the knowledge gathered and eliminating uncertainty. He was also a good motivator, shifting my exam perspective. THANK YOU for all this, Mihai! I truly recommend this course (it changes your mindset) and Mihai Olaru as a trainer! I do hope that our roads meet again in the future on Agile/Coaching/Project Management trainings or projects. Congrats, Mihai, for making a difference!

ROXANA CRISTEA, PMI-ACP

TARGET PMI Agile Certified Practitioner (PMI-ACP)® CERTIFICATION

The most valuable piece of knowledge that our trainer Cristina brought was the concept of team in the Agile methodology and SCRUM based framework. So, leaving aside for a short moment all the clarifications and practical examples that helped us better implement the Agile practices, I couldn't stress enough the importance of team work and the concept of how we are all together in this. I feel that after those days of training, I now have a better understanding of the underlining issues in my team, how to work better with one another and clearly, I know the next steps to improve our work conditions and general feel of the work space. I love that the main focus is on people - these tools can be quite powerful if applied correctly, and can bring great value, not only to the company, but also, to each individual, as it focuses on great values and principles like courage, focus, commitment, respect and openness. This workshop can help you help your team achieve satisfaction in their workplace. Thank you!

I can say that it was quite by chance to find Mihai and to attend his course TARGET PMI-ACP® CERTIFICATION. After all this experience, I can say I was lucky because I found out a very good trainer (both professional and human) with a very well structured course. In a nutshell this course's differentiator is the very comprehensive summary of the Agile Exam Content and the after-course relation with Mihai (the fact that you have a personalized schedule made by Mihai depending on your time availability and that Mihai is doing his best in keeping you connected with frequent follow-ups to the agreed schedule :) ). I recommend Mihai and his course, openhearted, for all those interested to obtain this certification.

In the last 2 weeks before the exam, Narciss was a real coach, giving me precise instructions on what to study, how, when, how to rest, what to eat before the exam, and so on.

I was fortunate enough to have Mihai as my trainer for the PMI-ACP certification, and I don't regret it - needless to say the objective has been achieved and I am now the prowd owner of a PMI-ACP certification with "above target" mention on all domains. Mihai is a very hands-on coach. Not only did he provide relevant information during the training, but he also provided a personalized learning plan after the training in order to prepare for the exam. Then he followed through the plan by making himself available for guidance via dedicated skype sessions. Also, when I encountered areas where I felt I was less prepared, Mihai was kind enough to help me with reference material specifically targeted for the areas needing improvement. These reference materials proved to be of much bigger use for the exam that I would have initially assumed. I would recommend Mihai to anyone who wants to prepare for the PMI-ACP certification.

Keep up the good work and see you soon for another journey!

BOGDAN IVANUS, PMI-ACP, PSM I

I had the pleasure of attending Mihai's TARGET PMI-ACP® CERTIFICATION program. I say program because it's not limited to the 3 days of training. During the training, Mihai combined the theoretical information with real-life examples. In the period between the training and the exam, he helped with a tailored learning plan, frequently checking in to see if things were unclear. It really helped that he was available for follow up questions until the day of the exam.

I really liked this training. Mihai is natural and genuine during the presentation. He has the experience as a Scrum Master and Project Manager. He presents the concepts and values as person who believe in what he said. He has many stories from real life. An Agile training for everybody: the people who discover first time Agile world or people with experience in working in Scrum format. I recommend Mihai and I recommend the training (information, structure, examples, games) created by Mihai. Good job Mihai!

AUREL BUCULEI

Mihai manages to create an excellent balance between theory and practice - funny examples from the real life (all in a relaxed atmosphere). Even all of us were from different domains of expertise, some of the trainees didn't use Agile before, after the course he managed to induce us all that Agile mindset (which is the key feature of the whole thing). After each module we had a 15 questions test, explained after. He gave us access to docs, tests, and moreover, he will train each of us for the ACP exam, adapted to each person's pace of learning. Highly recommend!

Octavian Mihalcovici from PM Access has a deep analytical understanding of business processes and organizational strategy. Using a mix of frameworks (PMI for PM, BSC for Strategy) and specialized knowledge, he helped our organization improve the business processes which had the greatest impact on our customers. Using Kanban, he made the work that we are doing more visible and manageable. This had a great impact on the way we communicate internally and with the customers. I would recommend his services to all the companies who want to better understand what a good strategy would be for them and also who want to have improved business and project management processes.

IOAN CODREA

I attended Mihai course "TARGET PMI-ACP® CERTIFICATION" in March 2017. The teaching method is very natural, I like that he is varying theoretical aspects with very hands-on examples from Agile world. I felt I learned in 3 days what I could have learned in a few months by my own, and I think Mihai also taught me not only how to do agile but also how to become Agile. After the training course he encouraged me to take the exam as a proof of my knowledge. He created a personalized program for taking the exam. I made a 6 months break of learning due to some personal problems, but when I got back I had all his support. He always found time to answer any question I had, and they were a lot of them ! He always found a good metaphor to explain me the hardest concepts. I hope I can work again with him, and I will probably attend another course he is teaching "Scrum for Teams" in the near future.

First of all, Mihai is a true professional in both agile techniques and as a trainer. The content of the course is rich, explanatory, with plenty of tools to use in various businesses and areas. The course convinced me agile could be a smart way to work and stay together.

The training was very informative, touching both theory and practical methods.

You will learn new things, new methods, even though you already have a basic knowledge about Scrum/Agile. It changes your normal perception about Scrum/Agile.

The Agile Scrum for Teams training is exactly what you need if you want to start working in an agile team or you want to gain stronger knowledge about the process. The two days I attended the class were interesting and this had a positive impact on my vision about Scrum. I kindly recommend it!

The "Agile Scrum for Teams" training held by Mihai is a terrific Agile practices refreshment for those that have some previous experience in this field and also for newcomers. I recommend this training for anyone who wants to build products in the Agile way.

LUCIAN-PAUL TORJE
Software Engineer at Siemens

We've implemented an Agile Awareness training program with PM Access and also an Agile Coach internal selection process. With more than 300 trainees in the Agile Awareness sessions, PM Access managed to support our commitment to Agile transformation in 2015. The grounds were very well set for collaboration and all attendees now share the same understanding of Agile values, principles and the benefits they provide. Mihai was truly inspiring, sharing his knowledge and experience he brings from working closely with Agile teams. We received the same value and quality from PM Access during the selection process of internal Agile coaches. PM Access partnered with the Business and HR to reveal the most appropriate people in the company that can represent the Agile initiatives, going forward. Thank you, PM Access!

ELENA BOGUS
Senior HR Consultant at Metro Systems

In our experience of agile coaching, true value comes with hands-on experience. Agile coaching is not only a display of knowledge but a practice. Working with PM Access on our Agile transformation projects has revealed how important it is to see someone practicing agility, and not only preaching it. With Mihai standing by our teams, we've got to observe the behaviors of servant leadership and openness, to the point we realized communication is not an addition to work, but a way of working. What we've come to recognize as valuable during the coaching process is the empowerment the team received in the process, and how they continue to act boldly to new challenges! We love this result!

I really recommend the Negotiating Workshop, it's very well structured and focused on key negotiating techniques.

LUCIAN POPOVICI, PMP
Project Manager at Ericsson

Useful workshop for business management. Interactive and structured, it brings a lot of information with regard to product and financial management as well as services strategies. Many interesting examples shared.

TUDOR TUTOVEANU, PMP
Project Manager at Ericsson

"Managing Projects in Business Environment" Training is very well structured, combining theory with practical examples. It is very useful for all the persons interested in Project Management area as it covers all important aspects. The trainer also added a great value and succeeded in reaching the proposed objectives. I would definitvely not hesitate attending also other trainings delivered by the PM ACCESS professionals.

RUXANDRA RADES
HR Business Partner at Cegeka

Attending Narciss' training courses is an experience one won't find somewhere else that often: energetic, intense, no boredom, total participation and above all an excellent mixture between well explained theory and real life practice examples. It keeps you pretty much on your toes basically. There is no question you may bring out of your bag that won't find its answer and no uncertainty that can't be clarified and anchored in a well-structured context. He is known to have this effect on people, that he can transfer high amounts of knowledge and energy. Hence my piece of advice to those who attend his PMP prep courses: you may get the feeling that you're ready to sit the PMP exam the next day; but that's just because you've attended Narciss' classes - actually you do still have to study/recap a little. Just a little.

VLAD DUMITRU, PMP
IT Manager at Ursus Breweries at subsidiary of SABMiller Plc

Narciss' course was recommended to me as the best PMP prep course available on the market. I attended his course and was not at all dissapointed. He managed to present a roughly "arid" methodology in an interesting and attractive way. I would describe his course as: interactive, captivating, explanatory and full with examples. He emphasised the importance of questions even after the course was finished and always tried to explain the tricky concepts or questions until. Moreover I appreciated his help with final details while prepairing the application for the actual exam. I would highly recommend Narciss for his method of presenting project management topics, for his pleasant personality and involvement in his student's certification process.

TUDOR-CRISTIAN MARASESCU, PMP
Senior Project Manager at Capgemini

I met Narciss during his PMP training course, which I took in order to prepaire myself for the PMP exam. I congratulate myself for the decision of working with Narciss, since he is a true professional: very committed, highly skilled, and most importantly knows how to explain things, thus making everything easier. Narciss also provided support after the course, and guided me through the learning process. With his help, I am now PMP certified. I am looking forward with working with Narciss again in the future..

TUDOR ALEXANDRU SORIN, PMP
IT Project Manager at Groupama

Narciss was my trainer for the "contact hours" required for PMI's PMP® certification. I can say that he truly masters both the PMBOK® concepts and the art of training. I have stayed in contact with him after the training, because of his likeable nature and personal integrity. I strongly and warmly recommend Narciss as a PM expert and a trainer for becoming PMP® certified, in particular.

STEFAN BARGAOANU, PMP, CSM, LSS GREEN BELT
Agile Coach

Narciss is great trainer, with a lot of experience and some nice personal touches. After taking the PMP exam, I can say that the training was very well planned: good timing, focused on all essential subjects, extremely comprehensive and fun, too. I just had to review the training materials and add a little study and there I was, ready for the exam.  Already recommended him to a few of my colleagues, it's probably the best choice to get the PMP certification in Romania (Bucharest).

SORIN AVRAM, PMP
Project Manager at NORTAL UK

Narciss is one of the trainers that had one of the biggest impact in shaping my professional profile. His teaching skills, knowledge passing ability, in-depth business understanding and extensive practical experience is probably what makes Narciss so effective in his trainer activity. During his training sessions things were always challenging both during theoretical and practical parts. In a nutshell, if preparing for your PMP certification or if you are just looking for improving your PM skills, in any are of your activity, Narciss is the one you should seek.

RAZVAN TAPU, PMP
Business Development Manager at Novensys

I met Narciss as a co-worker a while back and got to know and respect him for his impecable work ethics, soft skills and experience. Having him also as a trainer for PMP certification was a great opportunity to grasp some of the tricks of the trade that he masters so well in his professional life. It is very seldom that a trainer manages to mix so well the theoretical knowledge with actual advice and hints from his professional experience. From this precise mix, the training course that Narciss is delivering helped me to obtain the PMP certification but also to grow as a professional.

RAZVAN SIGHINAS, PMP
Senior Director at Electronic Arts

Narciss added a great value during the PMP  training. His training methodology, as well as his useful advices to specific project management topics, helped me a lot to get the PMP certification and become a better project manager. I did and will always do highly recommend Narciss for any project management related trainings and consultancy activities.

RAZVAN RADU, PMP
Public Sector Account Manager at IBM

Searching the internet for project management classes I found PM Access and I decided that among other options this one was the best. So next thing I did I enrolled in the class called TARGET PMP® CERTIFICATION. Here I discovered one of my best teachers, Narciss Popescu. His teaching method is quite unique. He has a relaxed approach but highly professional in the same time. He managed to teach me all concepts described in PMBOK® Guide. He coached me after the course indicating the steps to make for preparing to pass the PMP® exam. I highly recommend Narciss to all project managers who wish to obtain PMP® Certification

RADU TOADER, PMP
Project Manager at Magic View

Narciss is one of the best trainers I ever had in class, I participated to 2 trainings held by him, the most important was the one in which he supported us with the preparation for the PMP certification. I can say that I am now certified also due to the well organized training, explanations and support I received from Narciss.  I would highly recommend Narciss for any project management trainings, especially for the ones that want to pursue the PMP certification.

MARIA ENACHE, PMP
Manager at Metro Cash and Carry

I first know Narciss when I attended a PMP Training. He is an analytical person and has strong strategic thinking skills. Very efficent in his work as a trainer and very organized. I took PMP exam from first try thanks to his precious explanations and continous support even after training period has finished.  He has to be the best trainer I ever met because he succeded in motivating me to acomplish my goal. I would definitely recommend him to anyone that wants to take the PMP exam

MADALIN CRAIA, PMP
Head of GSSO IT Sourcing at Ericsson

I have attended to 2 courses organized by Narciss during 2010 at Ericsson and I was effectively impressed: by the way he is exposing ideas, how the course agenda is being structured, by all those relevant examples which make you recall all the topics approached there even after passing a year, by his friendly attitude and respect shown to his students, by his passion to see people understanding even the most abstract concepts. I still remember the Negotiation training when we've learned the different types of negotiation based on different peoples' culture, with your experience faced in Japan which should be introduced in every negotiation dictionary in order to be used by people dealing with this part of Asia, but mainly I recall the unexpected final when everybody exclaimed: "this is the most interesting training course I have ever attended!". Wish you to keep sharing with the students your endless enthusiasm and experience and you'll not only find continuous challenges but lot of happy and well trained professionals! PS: Please bear in mind that this recommendation has been done by a former trainer! :)

LUCIAN GHITA, PMP
Project Manager at Ericsson

I attended Narciss Popescu's Target PMP course and it was the foundation for my desire to learn and take the PMP exam, which I eventually passed. His training style is scenario-based and it helped me assimilate the new information a lot easier. I was also very content about the post-course counseling which helped me in the process of earning my PMP certification. I would highly recommend his training classes.

LEONARD ALEXANDRU, PMP
Senior QA Engineer at Luxoft

When I've took the PMP course, I discovered in Narciss a very open, skillful and nice trainer who helped me to really understand the encrypted and vast information from PMBOK. Before attending this training, I had already read the PMBOK at least once, but it was very hard to get the concepts. Narciss gave the structure and a lot of valuable tips for a clear understanding of the areas and processes. He helped me this way to successfully get the PMP certification at my first try. I appreciated very much my manager’s recommendation to take that course and my great luck to meet Narciss.

IULIA BUMBAC, PMP
Project Manager at HP

Though it is a complex area, Narciss helped us see the big picture and understand the logical relationships between the concepts. Moreover, his personality, personal experience and knowledge made the attending of the 5 days 'Target PMP Certification' course a real pleasure. After the course, Narciss helped me organize my efforts in studying for the PMP certification, which I eventually got. I definitely recommend this course. It brings real value to people that want to certify themselves as PMP or to get better at managing projects.

GEORGE POPOVICI, PMP
Project Manager at Luxoft

Target PMP Certification was recommended to me as the best PMP Training from the Romanian market and I wasn't at all disappointed. I can say now that Narciss is one of the best trainers I have ever worked with. He knows very well how to capture student’s attention and makes his classes very attractive. And what is most important: he helped us after the training during learning process, saving our time, giving directions and answering to our questions. With him, getting PMP Certification is a sure thing.

GAVRIL DORNEANU, PMP
Product Manager at Interactive Systems & Business Consulting

Narciss is an outstanding trainer, who can go beyond the content of the course, transferring also knowledge from his broad work experience. He is focused on course objectives, empathic and convincing, has strong presentation skills and an awesome sense regarding time management. He is the kind of the trainer you would like to meet again, at another course.

GABRIEL VASILOIU, PMP
Customer Project Manager at Ericsson

Narciss Popescu is an excellent trainer, he added value to my knowledge during the training timeframe. He was one of the reason I passed the PMP exam on the first try, aside from being a good trainer, he helped me developing a learning strategy after the official PMP course and tweaked it until the exam took place.

GABRIEL RUSU, PMP
Technical Project Manager and Entrepreneur

To study for my PMP certification, the training provided by Narciss was the best choice I could make. The results did not hesitate to appear, as in the next two weeks I passed the exam. The training was very goal oriented, and Narciss proved to be an experienced and professional trainer.

GABRIEL POPESCU, PMP
Project Manager at Freelancer

If you are considering getting a PMI credential to further your career in Project Management, I strongly recommend Narciss. The material for PMP was presented clearly and concisely by Narciss and he carefully explained project management methodology and encouraged questions. He exhibited a sincere concern about the success of those attending the training. In the post-training environment, Narciss established a networking link so students could keep in touch, ask questions, and share their testing experience. He also made himself available for counsel and questions. Rarely do you expect this kind of cradle-to-grave commitment. Narciss is certainly an outstanding educator and a concerned, caring individual. He is a professional resource you do not want to miss experiencing.

GABRIEL MUSAT, pmp
Project Manager at Raiffeisen Bank

I would recommend Narciss' training: Target PMP Certification (PM ACCESS) to anyone that seeks to get PMP certified. Not only the training is time very well spent, but also the support offered by Narciss after (and even before) the training is outstanding. Narciss is always there to give an advice, to make sure you follow the training plan and to support in any situation.  If you are looking for PMP certification, Narciss is the person that can make a difference to your preparation and to the result of your PMP examination.

DANIELA CUPSA, PMP
Program Manager at HP

I took the PMP course held by Narciss in June 2014 and I was impressed with the in depth explanations, practical examples and stories that supported the material. The experience was a true immersion into the PMP world and Narciss as a trainer made it very enjoyable despite the very large quantity of information. Moreover, after the course Narciss supported me during my exam preparation and through his guidance I was able to successfully obtain the PMP certification. Thank you!

DAN LACUREZEANU, PMP
IT Business Unit Manager and Service Delivery at Qualysoft

From the moment I decided to take the PMP Certification, everywhere I was asking, I kept barging into Narciss name, as the best trainer for the job. It was clear for me that "I have to have him"! And it wasn't so hard to understand, even from the first hour of training, why he is so much recommended. Despite the large amount of information that has to be covered you don’t even realize how quickly the time flees and how easily the information is assimilated due to his natural talent of teaching by practical examples and real stories. Not only that he has the talent but also he is completing his talent with hard work, when he is guiding step by step each and every one of his students using personified plans that are continuously adapted to the progress. What more could you ask from a trainer?! Ah, yes…another training course! And I’m the first enrolled to his next training(Negotiation)…can’t wait for it!

CRISTI ALECU, PMP
Project Manager at ZTE

I recommend Narciss as an expert in teaching and coaching project management. Because of the preparation course he held in 2008 I passed the PMP exam in 2009. The course was well prepared, with good training materials and held in a professional manner. I recommend Narciss as a good trainer.

COSTIN CHIRCULESCU, PMP
Presales and Technical Manager at TotalSoft

I was expecting a boring standard training session. Instead, with Narciss I actually found out that you can learn and understand in a fun and easy way. Every methodology is a little "dry" but Narciss managed to show us an attractive perspective while solving a lot of the questions that we had. I strongly recommend Narciss as a PM expert and as a trainer.
