Blue Summit Consulting Group

What Blue Summit Consulting Group does

Blue Summit Consulting Group, LLC is a Service-Disabled Veteran-Owned Small Business founded in January 2019 by a retired Naval officer to deliver more effective, modern, and accessible project management training. The company is headquartered in Evans, Georgia, and operates with a 1-10 employee base, distributed primarily via the proprietary Blue Summit Academy LMS (bluesummitacademy.com) and the corporate website (bluesummitcg.com). It holds PMI Premier Authorized Training Partner status (highest tier), AI CERTs Platinum Partner status, and SDVOSB certification, supporting a go-to-market that combines individual learners, enterprises, government/defense agencies, and academic partners.

The core product portfolio centers on PMI-aligned certification exam preparation for PMP, CAPM, PMI-ACP, and the newer PMI-CPMAI (managing AI projects) credentials, delivered in in-person, live online, and on-demand formats with one year of post-training instructor support. Course pricing spans $1,195 (CAPM on-demand) to $2,595 (PMP and PMI-ACP live), with discounts for AUSA members (25%), group buyers of five or more, and government/military-funded programs (WIOA, Army Credentialing Assistance, Air Force COOL, MyCAA). Adjacent offerings include workforce development courses in leadership, communication, agile, and negotiation; custom instructional design services; and project management consulting. The CVP/FedILMS partnership extends the platform into FedRAMP-authorized secure training for federal and defense clients.

Revenue mechanics blend one-time course licensing (certification prep and on-demand content) with project-based professional services for instructional design and consulting, plus channel-mediated access via workforce-development and military funding programs. Customer references span KPMG, SDL, DENSO, SRNS (Savannah River Nuclear Solutions), and Training Camp, with named segment coverage for individual certification candidates, corporate L&D, federal/defense buyers, and academic partners such as NC State University.
