What is this course about
This course is intended for participants undertaking or wish to undertake the Project Management Professional (PMP) Essential course. The course follows the Project Management Body Of knowledge (PMBOK) 3rd Edition. The title PMP is an internationally accepted recognition of project management knowledge and professionalism of the successful participant. Simply put, this is a professional certification of the participant in the area of project management. According to CertCities.com 2006 annual reader survey, the Project Management Professional (PMP®) credential has ranked among the “Hottest Certifications” for the third consecutive year among professionals planning to gain certifications within the next 12 months. This survey shows an increase in membership from 2004 to 2005 of over 39% and a total of 87,776 new PMP’s in 2005. There are over 185,894 PMP’s worldwide who provide project management services in 125 countries. The growth over last eight years is in the range of 20 times from 1998 to 2006. Many corporations require the PMP® credential for an individual to qualify for employment an advance within the corporation. The accreditation is the world’s most recognized credential for individuals associated with project management. For your information, the cost for sitting for the examination per participant is about US$555 (non-PMI® member), and payment is made direct to the Project Management Institute, USA (please see PMP Certification Handbook found at www.pmi.org for complete details). However, it would still be cheaper if the participant applies to be a PMI® member first, followed by applying to sit for the PMP® Examination. Membership application and pricing details at www.pmi.org.
