PMI® eligibility requirements for the PMP® certification:

Before enrolling, confirm that you can satisfy PMI® requirements, because this course prepares you for the examination but does not itself make you PMP®-eligible. PMI® currently requires candidates to meet one of the approved education and project experience pathways listed on the official PMP® certification page.

• Bachelor's Degree or Global Equivalent + 36 Months of Project Leadership Experience + 35 Hours of Project Management Education/Training
• Secondary Diploma (High School Diploma, Associate Degree, or Global Equivalent) + 60 Months of Project Leadership Experience + 35 Hours of Project Management Education/Training
• Certified Associate in Project Management (CAPM®) holders may satisfy the education requirement pathway recognized by PMI®
• Candidates must successfully pass the PMP® certification examination and maintain the credential through PMI®'s Continuing Certification Requirements (CCR) program

Final certification requires passing the PMP® examination and maintaining the credential by earning Professional Development Units (PDUs) during each certification cycle. PMI® may audit applications and request supporting documentation to verify education, project management training, and project leadership experience. For the most current eligibility criteria and certification policies, candidates should review the official PMI® PMP® certification page at https://www.pmi.org/certifications/project-management-pmp.

If you meet the education, experience, and training requirements above, you are ready to enroll and prepare for the PMP® examination with confidence.

To take this preparation course:

• Working experience in project management, project coordination, engineering, business operations, or a related role is recommended, as the material is delivered at the professional, exam-ready level
