Project Management Certification
Project Management Certifications Worldwide
Is it worth it to do all of the work to earn a project management certification? As usual, the answer is “It depends.” Yes, it depends on things such as your goals, experience, stage in your career, location, priorities at your current organization or those in which you are interested, and more.
There are a number of major project management certifications worldwide today. Get familiar with what project management certification or certifications are most prevalent and respected in your organization, industry, or region of the world. Here is a quick summary of what the major project management certifications are about, and links to learn more.
Prince2
Prince2 is the de facto standard used extensively by the UK Government and is widely recognized and used in the private sector, both in the UK and internationally most prevalently in the UK and Europe, Australia, and Canada.
AIPM - Australian Institute of Project Management
This project management certification – there are several levels - is primarily geared toward Australian professionals and organizations, although it is based on international standards and best practices.
CompTIA Project+
CompTIA Project+ is inexpensive, has no prerequisites, requires no continuing education, and there is no application, but there is a test based on international standards.
Project Management Institute (PMI) - PMP and CAPM
The Project Management Professional (PMP) certification is the most widely known and accepted worldwide. The Certified Associate in Project Management (CAPM) is entry level and does not require experience.
IPMA – International Project Management Association
This Swiss organization – the oldest in the project management profession - is primarily comprised of national project management associations worldwide. It does not offer its own certification, but rather is a sort of clearinghouse for the various worldwide project management organizations and corresponding PM certifications.
APMC – Advanced Project Management Certification
This is a specialized advanced certification for senior project managers who complete “The Kerzner Approach to Best Practices”. It could be an additional differentiator for those who already have a certification.
American Academy of Project Management (AAPM)
MPM™ Master Project Manager, CIPM ™ Certified International Project Manager ™ or PME ™ Project Manager E-Business ™ certifications are by application based upon completion of approved education, which looks to be exclusively by education institutions, and not private businesses.
BrainBench certification in Project Management
The test is based on the PMI’s Project Management Body of Knowledge (PMBOK). BrainBench specializes in “Delivering easy-to-use assessment products that predict success on the job.”
