Stephanie Jaeger, PMP, LIMC

Murtaza not only taught me project management during the PMP training, but also helped me make the transition from Nursing into project management. He willingly mentored me and was only a phone call away during those trying first few months. Without him going out of his way I would have had a much harder time transitioning careers. We also keep bouncing ideas and thoughts off each other and keep encouraging each other up to today. I recommend him as consultant, practitioner, trainer, mentor.

Pinto Odhiambo Otieno PMP®

I had the privilege of being trained by Murtaza on my PMP certification, very professional, knowledgeable and experienced trainer. He made the PMBOK very simple and easy to understand, I will recommend him unreservedly for the good work he is doing!
