Is it mandatory to attend courses from Authorised Training Providers (ATP) of PMI to qualify for PMP certification?

Training programs conducted by Universities
Training programs conducted by independent training organizations
Training programs offered by PMI Chapters
Self paced training programs offered by online education providers like coursera etc

In a nutshell, any course which satisfies the following criteria will qualify;

Must be of or above 35 hours duration
Must be formal
Must be supervised by a supervisor / mentor
Must cover the PMP syllabus
Must have an end of the course formal assessment with certificate
