Project Management Course FAQs

What is a project manager? What does a project manager do?

A project manager is responsible for a project's success. They develop an idea, gain support, assemble a team, outline steps, manage the budget, make critical decisions, communicate with stakeholders, and ensure a smooth handover. They control all aspects of the project, including initiation, planning, design, execution, monitoring, control, and closing.

What is the PMP certification?

The PMI, the world's leading authority on project management, created the PMP certification to recognize project managers who have proven they have project leadership experience and expertise in any working background. The PMP credential acknowledges candidates' skills in managing the people, processes, and business priorities of professional projects. 

To obtain PMP certification, a project manager must meet certain requirements and pass a 180-question exam. According to the PMI, the PMP exam was created by project leaders for project leaders so that each test question can be related to real-life project management experiences.

What is the CAPM certification?

CAPM is a PMI-awarded certification, considered the first step in project management certification. The exam is a three-hour-long, 150-question, proctored multiple-choice test. You can take the exam online from home through online proctoring sessions. To be eligible, you must have a secondary degree and complete 23 hours of project management education (this course satisfies the requirement). Once you pass the exam, you'll receive the CAPM certification.

Can I work as a project manager without a project manager certification?

Yes, you can become a project manager without certification if you have the necessary knowledge, training, and experience. However, obtaining a CAPM and/or PMP certification is recommended as it demonstrates your commitment to the industry and understanding of global standards. Possessing a certification can give you an edge over other candidates, show your willingness to learn, and increase your earning potential.
