Project management professional certification

🚀 The Project Management Professional (PMP) certification, offered by the Project Management Institute (PMI), is a globally recognized credential for project managers. It signifies that you have the experience, education, and competency to lead and direct projects.

💰 The cost for the PMP exam ranges from $405 for PMI members to $555 for non-members. You can join the PMI members and pay an annual fee. It’s important to note that you will have to pay a membership to continue renewing and keeping your certification active.

🏢 This certification is valuable across various career fields, including IT, construction, healthcare, finance, and manufacturing.

💼 From the general consensus of people I’ve talked with, the PMP certification is fantastic for those looking to pivot into project management or secure a new role. It not only enhances your resume but also opens doors to higher salary potentials and more job opportunities.

🤔 However, if you’re happy in your role or have already broken into program management, I would not recommend it due to the price of the courses and exam.
