Our verdict on each
PMTraining
PMTraining suits project managers who want live classes and a money-back promise at $68, with 20 full length tests to rehearse against. The trade-off is the box: access runs 3 months and the bank holds 1,200 questions, so the plan rewards a study block that starts promptly and runs to a set date.
Wyzant
Wyzant suits US families who want a wide pool of one to one tutors without a subscription and a free first hour. Entry lesson price $25 sits well below the median of $95, so the real cost sits in the tutor rate you settle on.

Pros and cons
PMTraining
Pros
- Live classes are part of the package, and the class fee is refunded if you have not passed within the attempts and time limit the guarantee sets out.
- 20 full length tests, well over the category median of 6, give plenty of timed rehearsal.
- A free trial means the 1,200 question bank can be sampled before you pay $68.
Cons
- Access is fixed at 3 months, so a late start or a delayed exam date eats into the window.
- The bank of 1,200 practice questions is thin beside the 3,100 median for this category.
- The standard refund window of 5 days is short against a field median of 30 days, so a change of mind costs money.
Wyzant
Pros
- Entry price is low. Lessons start at $25 while the median sits at $95.
- No platform cut on top. The service fee is 0%, so the tutor rate is the whole rate.
- A deep bench of tutors. The pool holds 65,000, ranked 3 of 16 on tutor count.
Cons
- Typical cost runs well above the advertised entry rate, since the median lesson price is $95 against entry at $25. Budget on the median.
- There is no separate free trial period, and a trial lesson is offered as free only.
- Support runs on help centre and community alone, so a direct line to a person is not part of the offer.
Who each suits
PMTraining
Who it suits
- Project managers close to the PMP who want live classes rather than self study alone.
- Candidates who prefer to look before they pay, since a free trial is offered.
- People who want continuing education hours alongside exam preparation, because the on demand course carries pmi pdu.
Who should look elsewhere
- Candidates on a tight budget: DRCertifications opens at $19.99 and Testprep Training at $12.99, both under the PMTraining entry point.
- Anyone sitting an exam other than pmp, or chasing a California real estate salesperson licence, which Allied Schools covers with its own course packages and exam entry.
- Learners who want a long access window, since PMTraining access stops at 3 months.
Wyzant
Who it suits
- US households, since it runs in US and its headquarters sit in the United States.
- Parents who want to compare tutors first, since a pool of 65,000 and a free trial lesson let a family test the fit.
- Students sitting a major test, since the test preparation catalogue covers sat, act and gre.
Who should look elsewhere
- DojoTutor, where a lower entry rate of $10 suits a tighter budget.
- ErsteNachhilfe, where lessons start at €10.50.
- BUKI, at PLN 50, and anyone who needs a formal free trial period, since a free trial is not part of the offer.
Questions about each
PMTraining
How much does PMTraining cost to start?+
The practice exam package starts at $68. Exam entries are listed at the same level, with pmp: $68 USD capm: $68 USD pmi-acp: $68 USD showing the rate for each credential quoted. If entry cost is the deciding factor, DRCertifications opens at $19.99 and Testprep Training at $12.99, both lower.
Which exams does it cover?+
The listed exam coverage is pmp, so this is a project management specialist rather than a general test shop. Prices appear for neighbouring credentials too, in pmp: $68 USD capm: $68 USD pmi-acp: $68 USD, but the material is organised around the one exam listed. Anyone sitting a different paper is better served by a broader catalogue.
Wyzant
How much does a lesson cost on Wyzant?+
Lessons start at $25 and the median lesson price is $95. The service fee is 0%, so no platform charge sits on top of the tutor rate. Budget for the median rather than the entry figure, since the two sit far apart.
Does Wyzant charge a subscription?+
No subscription is listed. Charging is per lesson through $25 and $95, and the service fee is 0%. Families who expect a fixed monthly plan should compare a subscription platform, where the median subscription across compared sites runs at €71.91.
