Is the PMP Certification Worth Pursuing? Benefits and Considerations

In the realm of project management, your PMP certification can help you stand out from the competitors. If you are thinking about obtaining PMP certification, be aware that you first have to finish classes, get to know what it is, and take a test. Is Pmp Certification Calgary, however, worth it? Comprising more than a million certification holders globally, the PMP is well-known and connected to several advantages for project managers. 

This post will go over the requirements for certification, potential costs, and how PMP certification might help you further your project management career.

Understanding Project Management Professional Certification

Globally accepted project management credential, the Project Management Professional (PMP) certification examines a candidate’s capacity to handle professional project people, processes, and business priorities. The Project Management Institute (PMI), which oversees the certification, estimates that over one million PMP-certified individuals exist globally. Project managers in practically any sector—including health, construction, information technology (IT), and business—should find it relevant.

Remember, You will have to pass a certification test and satisfy the experience criteria in order to qualify!

How One Should Sign Up for PMP Certification?

Starting working in the field is the first step towards PMP certification. PMP certification calls for several years of employment experience. Should you have a bachelor’s degree, you will be qualified for the PMP credential with 36 months of pertinent project experience. You have to accrue 60 months of experience without this degree. 

If the title of your employment does not include “project,” do not panic; working on projects qualifies you for the PMP. A project is defined as any set of actions to achieve an outcome over a set amount of time. You can get your PMP, but you are not working in the field of project management but still working inside projects. 

Unless you hold the Certified Associate in Project Management (CAPM) certificate, the next phase is to complete at least 35 hours of formal PMP training, sometimes known as “contact hours. One online or on-site PMP certification course will help you to finish these hours. These courses teach the ideas you need to grasp before sitting the PMP certification exam; they take a few weeks to several months to finish.

Requirements For PMP Certification

You must authenticate your education and project management experience if you are to take the exam. These come as follows:

  • 35 hours of project management training—that is, courses designed primarily to target project management learning objectives. 
  • A Certified Associate in Project Management (CAPM)® qualification will also be needed. 
  • If you have a four-year degree, 36 months of experience directing projects
  • If you have a high-school diploma or associate degree, 60 months of experience directing projects. 

Do You Think The Pmp Is Worth It?

In the end, your situation will determine if a PMP certification is financially and professionally beneficial. To assist you in making your decision, here are a few advantages you might experience after earning your PMP certification.

  • Recognized as an expert in the field, the Project Management Professional (PMP) credential can demonstrate to clients and employers that you have the education and expertise to complete project management assignments successfully.
  • Studying for the test is a great way to learn all about project management. If you want to become a better project manager, investing time to learn the basics, such as how to create a budget and resolve conflicts, is a must.
  •  Those with the PMP certification reported a median pay that was 33% greater than those without the certification, according to a recent survey by the Project Management Institute [1]. According to PC Magazine, among the IT certifications associated with the highest earnings in the IT business, the PMP certification placed third.
  • A study by PMI and the Anderson Economic Group estimates that by 2027, 87.7 million people will be needed by businesses for project management positions. The healthcare industry is predicted to experience the most increase, while the construction, information services, and banking and insurance sectors are also expected to see considerable gains.

What Is On The Pmp Test?

As of July 2024, the PMP certification test comprises the following general overview.

  1. 180 questions overall.
  2. 230 minutes—three hours fifty minutes—to finish
  3. Two 10-minute breaks.

Multiple-choice, multiple responses, matching, hotspot, and limited fill-in-the-blank questions all taken together

The Questions Cover Three Spheres:

  • People: 42 percent of the test

Comprising less than half of the test, the people part covers subjects including mentoring, team building and management of conflict, support of virtual teams, and other relevant subjects.

  • Process: half of the exam

The part on the process evaluates your understanding of the approach of seeing a project through to completion. Management of funds and other resources, scheduling, dealing with project modifications, and choosing the best approaches for the project could all be questioned about.

  • Business: Eight percent of the test

The section of the test on the business environment generally covers the more business-minded issues you will have to address as a project manager, including compliance, value delivery, and organizational change support. About half of the material is predictive project management techniques; the other half is Agile or hybrid methods.

The Bottom Line

Among professionals nowadays, one of the best options is project management. Every industry—including information technology-enabled services, construction, healthcare, and many more—is driven by PMP demand. Already recruiting Project Management Professional certified project managers to bring strategic ideas and think tactically to implement the projects are project-oriented businesses like IT and manufacturing.

 Your career as a project management professional could advance with PMP certification. If you’re ready to get going, look at project management classes.
