PMP certification is a globally recognized credential offered by the Project Management Institute (PMI)® and requires candidates to meet specific criteria, including: Educational Background: A secondary degree (high school diploma, associate degree, or equivalent) or a four-year degree. Project Management Experience: A minimum of 36-60 months of leading and directing projects, depending on educational qualifications. Project Management Training: Completion of 35 hours of formal project management education, such as PRINCE2 training or equivalent courses. While a diploma in project management provides foundational knowledge, pursuing PRINCE2 training can enhance your skills and fulfill the training requirement for PMP certification. Combining PRINCE2’s structured methodology with PMP’s broader framework can position you as a well-rounded project management professional.
