I am getting ready to take my PMP certificate course but having a hard time deciding between the online self paced course and the live virtual instructor led course. Would like to hear from you all who have taken either and the pros and cons of your experience. Saving Changes...

It is totally a personal preference. For me, I prefer self-paced courses because there is no time restriction, so more flexiblity and you pick your own pace in studying but if you get busy, then you might miss on studying.
On the other hand, while Live classes are less time flexible, at least you commit and reserve the slot to attend no matter how busy you get.
So work load and self-disciplined plays a role in the decision.

If you ask me, no course is needed mainly today where everything is virtual. And I am saying this no matter I was instructor in courses related to PMI´s certifications, PMP and others. In the past, the interaction and debate with others could help but today, in my opinion, it has no sense. So, for me, related to both options you stated, self passed. Saving Changes...
I recommend Rita Mulcahy's certification prep, it's a good option to acquire PM Knowledge at your own pace, and is updated to the 2021 exam. Visit this link:
