WHY PMP® ?

The Project Management Professional (PMP)® is the most important industry-recognized certification for
project managers, awarded by Project Management Institute (PMI) ®. The PMP® signifies that you speak and
understand the global language of Project Management and connects you to a community of professionals,
organizations and experts worldwide. When more than one-third project managers within one company are
