PMI Certification

In an increasingly “projectized” world, PMI professional certification ensures that you’re ready to meet the demands of projects and employers across the globe.

As you may know, each of the PMI professional designations has varying educational and practical experience requirements that must be accepted by PMI before the candidate can sit for a certification exam. Candidates must pass the exam before certification can be granted.

Once granted, a certification must be maintained through ongoing training known as Professional Development Units. Click Get Certified to identify the right certification for you, and Click Maintain Certifications to find resources to maintain your existing certification.
