PMP Certification Course is a program offered by the Project Management Institute (PMI) to help individuals earn the Project Management Professional (PMP) certification. The course is designed to help prepare individuals to pass the PMP certification exam.
2. Work Experience for the PMP
To determine whether your project management job experience satisfies the
exam criteria, use the checklist below:
It happened in a professional situation, not a volunteer or personal one.
Meets the requirements of the PMI's definition of a "project":
Defined start and finish
Clearly defined scope and resources
Undertaken to generate a one-of-a-kind product, service, or outcome
Project management functions were included in at least one of the five
process groups
3. The five process groups are as follows:
Initiating the Project (IN): Defining the project scope and securing stakeholder
consent.
Project Planning (PL): Creating the project plan and designing the task
breakdown structure (WBS).
Executing the Project (EX): Performing the work required to meet the project's
stated objectives.
Project Controlling and Monitoring (MC): Tracking project progress, managing
change and risk, and delivering status updates.
Closing the Project (CL): Completing all project activities, archiving
documentation, getting deliverable acceptance, and notifying project conclusion.
The Project Management Institute (PMI) expects you to have completed at least
one item from each of these five process groups in your application.
4. How can I ensure that my PMP experience
examples are correct?
Examples of questions to ask yourself regarding your PMP application
experience. Examine your PMP experience descriptions to ensure they are
valid by asking yourself the following questions:
Are all examples of experience under 500 words?
Did I clearly demonstrate that I completed duties in all five process groups?
Is it correct that I use project management terms and acronyms while
avoiding industry-specific jargon?
Is my description clear about the project's goal, as well as my role, duties,
and deliverables, as well as the end result?
Can I verify all PMP application experience examples with a director or
another project manager who was extensively involved in the project?
