Frequently Asked Questions
PMI offers two flagship credentials: the Certified Associate in Project Management (CAPM) for those new to project management, and the Project Management Professional (PMP) for experienced PMs. CAPM requires 23 contact hours of formal PM education (this course satisfies that). PMP requires both education hours AND documented project experience (4,500–7,500 hours depending on degree status).
The Certified Associate in Project Management (CAPM) is issued by PMI. It is recognized by employers across the IT and professional services industries as evidence of foundational competence in the Project Management Essentials domain.
No. Our course is exam-preparation training — it covers the cognitive content you need to pass. The certification exam itself is administered and priced separately by PMI. We provide guidance on registering for the exam when you complete the course.
For CAPM: no formal experience required, just a high-school diploma plus 23 hours of formal project management education (this course provides those hours). For PMP: requires 4,500–7,500 hours of project management experience PLUS 35 hours of formal education. Most students start with CAPM and progress to PMP as their experience accumulates.
Most students complete the Project Management Essentials program in 2 to 4 months. The course is self-paced, so you can finish faster or take longer depending on your schedule.
PM certifications open doors to: Project Coordinator, Project Manager, Senior Project Manager, Program Manager, Scrum Master (with additional Agile training), and PMO Analyst. The PMP is one of the highest-ROI professional certifications by salary impact across most industries (IT, construction, healthcare, manufacturing).
