Who for?
For project managers early in their careers
CAPM certification is designed for project managers who are still gaining experience. By getting the CAPM certification it shows that you are ready to take on responsibility for larger projects. CAPM certification also connects you to a community of professionals, organizations and experts worldwide.
Global project management standard
CAPM certification is based upon the best practice guidance found in the PMBOK® Guide - the American standard for project management. Its guidance is used to manage projects by organisations in many different industries throughout the world.
Complements project management methodologies
CAPM certification shows you have a broad knowledge of project processes and best practice project management techniques contained within the PMBOK® Guide. Since this is not a project management methodology this certification compliments well-known methods such as PRINCE2.
Benefits
Benefits of PMP certification
By gaining CAPM certification from PMI you will gain several benefits:
- Boost your career – with the demand for project managers increasing globally, gaining CAPM certification gives you a higher chance of landing a project manager role requiring greater responsibility;
- A stepping stone to PMP - according to the Project Management Salary Survey (2018), people holding PMP certification on average earned 20% higher salaries than those without. Getting CAPM certification is a step towards getting PMP.
- Get connected – there is a wide global community of professionals, organizations and experts who you can connect, share ideas and get involved with;
- Compliments PRINCE2 – if you already have PRINCE2, CAPM certification is a great compliment because it covers many project management techniques not covered in PRINCE2.
