The challenge

The syllabus is broad.
Life is busy.

The APM PFQ covers a lot of ground. Governance, planning, risk, stakeholder management, benefits realisation: the syllabus is broad and the exam tests understanding, not just recall.

Most people study for it alongside a full-time job. That means finding time where you can, picking up and putting down the material across days or weeks, and trying to hold it all together without losing the thread.

A PDF and a highlighter will get you through, but only just. Module Six gives you structure, tested understanding, and a clear picture of where you actually stand.

“

The exam tests whether you understand how project management works in practice, not whether you can recall a definition.

Module Six follows the full APM PFQ syllabus across six modules and 75 topics. Every topic is a structured lesson: the concept explained clearly, a worked example from a realistic project scenario, common exam mistakes, and a quick recap before you move on.

After each lesson you answer practice questions. Not to test memory, but to build the kind of applied understanding the PFQ exam requires. The app tracks where you're confident and where you're not, and surfaces the right material at the right time.

When you've worked through the modules, a full mock exam and readiness report tell you where you stand before you sit the real thing.

It works on any device. It installs like an app. It works offline. And once you've paid, you own it: no subscription, no renewal, no expiry.

What's included

Everything you need
between now and exam day.

75 topics

Six modules, full syllabus

The complete PFQ syllabus, structured in the sequence that makes sense. Each module builds on the last, from project foundations through to delivery, control, and value realisation.

385 questions

Practice questions with proper feedback

Every topic has PFQ-style and scenario-based questions. Answers come with full explanations. You understand why you got it wrong, not just that you did.

Spaced repetition

The app tracks your scores and brings back the topics where you're weakest. Revision time spent where it counts, not re-reading material you already know.

Module checkpoints

A scored checkpoint at the end of each module tests your understanding before you move on. A clear signal of where you stand, module by module.

Flashcard revision

Every topic has a flashcard mode for fast, focused revision. Ideal for commuting, short breaks, or consolidating knowledge the day before the exam. Works offline.

Works offline, installs as an app

Add it to your home screen on any device. Open it on the train, in a waiting room, anywhere. No connection needed once it's loaded.

Two ways to learn

Study the way that works for you.

At the start you choose how the app presents information. Same content, same qualification outcome. The difference is how it feels to work through it.

Standard mode

Browse and make connections.

More information on screen at once, cross-links visible throughout, full navigation always open. Suited to learners who like to move between topics, follow their curiosity, and build their own picture of the subject.

  • All navigation options visible
  • Related topics linked throughout
  • Move at your own pace, in any order
Focus mode

One thing at a time.

One concept per screen, minimal clutter, fewer decisions at each step. Progress is always visible. Navigation is stripped back to what you need. Suited to learners who prefer a clear, linear path and find too many options distracting.

  • Single concept per screen
  • Reduced navigation, no distractions
  • You control every transition

You can switch between modes at any time. Both modes cover identical content and lead to the same qualification outcome.

A closer look

Tools that do the heavy lifting.

Four features that turn study time into exam confidence.

Flashcard revision

Quick recall, anywhere you have five minutes.

Every topic has a dedicated flashcard set covering the key concepts and definitions. Work through them in order or let the app serve you the ones you're weakest on. No loading friction. Just the content you need, fast.

Critical path
The longest sequence of dependent tasks in a project schedule. Determines the earliest possible completion date. Any delay on the critical path delays the whole project.

Mock exam

Sit it before you sit the real one.

A full-length timed paper, PFQ-style, drawn from questions across all six modules. Conditions as close to the real exam as possible. When you finish, you get a topic-by-topic breakdown so you know exactly where to focus your last revision session.

Mock exam 48:12

A project manager identifies that a key supplier is three days behind. The critical path has no float remaining. What is the most appropriate immediate action?

A
Update the risk register with a new entry
B
Escalate to the project sponsor with a proposed mitigation plan
C
Extend the project end date to accommodate the delay
D
Issue a change request to reduce scope

Readiness report

Know when you're ready. Not just when you feel ready.

The readiness report builds a picture of your confidence across every topic in the syllabus, using your scores from lessons, checkpoints, and the mock exam. It gives you an overall readiness percentage, flags what needs work, and tells you clearly whether to book your exam or revise first.

Your revision list, built automatically.

Every time you answer a question, the app updates your confidence score for that topic. Topics where you're scoring below threshold get flagged and resurface in your revision queue. You don't need to track what needs work. The app does it for you.

How it works

Designed to fit around
a working week.

Module Six is built for people studying alongside a full-time job. Short focused lessons, smart revision, and a clear path from first topic to exam day.

1

Learn

Each topic opens with a clear explanation of the concept, a worked example, and a note on where candidates typically go wrong. Lessons are short enough to complete in a single sitting, long enough to actually cover the ground.

2

Practise

After each lesson, answer a set of practice questions. Scenario-based and PFQ-style. Feedback on every answer explains the reasoning, so each question is a learning moment, not just a score.

3

Track

Your dashboard shows progress across all six modules, recent scores, and the topics that need more work. You always know where you are and what to do next.

4

Revise

The app automatically resurfaces weak topics for review. Flashcards, targeted questions, quick recaps. No need to maintain your own revision list.

5

Assess

When you're through the modules, sit the mock exam under timed conditions. Review your readiness report. If the numbers are there, you're ready to book.
