Company Overview
In 2002, Andy Crowe, a leader in the IT project management industry, left his high-profile career to combine his passion for writing with his in-depth knowledge and experience as a Project Management Professional (PMP)®. He wanted to empower others to learn project management in a simple, dynamic way that also encouraged personal and professional growth. So Andy founded Velociteach on the philosophy that continuous improvement—both of working practices and self—is the cornerstone of quality management, a belief that he imparts in all of the company’s PMP classes, materials and day-to-day operations.
An internationally recognized expert in the field, Andy has hand-picked a team of PM authorities to build Velociteach into the premier project management education and certification company in the world. With an ever-increasing demand for its certification exam prep classes and an expanding catalog of courses and ways to take them, Velociteach offers public and group classroom-style training for certification and continued education, e-learning programs, comprehensive training kits, and licensing for outside trainers.
Our Mission & Values
Velociteach’s mission is to deliver best-in-industry project management education, along with supporting products and services. We measure our success through the value we deliver to our customers and through repeat business.
We push ourselves for excellence by incorporating the following principles into our corporate DNA:
- Product Excellence – Velociteach strives to set the industry standard for high-quality training products. We create award-winning courses and materials designed with one purpose in mind: deliver value.
- Leading-Edge Innovation – Velociteach courses and products push the envelope in the innovative ways we provide education and in the methods we use to help our customers translate project management theory into performance-changing practice.
- Kaizen – We are deeply committed to the Japanese management principle of continuous improvement. We refuse to sit still, choosing instead to make ongoing investments to incorporate increasingly higher value into our offerings.
- Outrageous Customer Service – Every Velociteach team member is committed whenever possible, to doing the things for our customers that our competitors will not do. We deliver higher value by making extra effort from our first contact with our potential customers through post-delivery follow up. This principle takes shape in such ways as spending extra time on the phone answering questions with customers, coming in early and staying late during training and continuing to support our customers after the sale as they implement the practices we teach.
- Community Service – We strongly believe in the value of giving back to the community through acts of service. Every Velociteach team member is encouraged to engage in community service. To that end, we have a policy allocating 5% of paid time to these efforts. Serving the community is engrained in the DNA of Velociteach.
