Frequently Asked Questions

Which project management certification should I get first?

CAPM from PMI suits people new to the field, while the PMP suits experienced project managers. PRINCE2 Foundation is popular in the UK and Europe, and the Google Project Management Professional Certificate is a beginner course.

Do I need a PMP?

Many employers prefer or require it, especially for large projects. It requires documented project experience and passing an exam, so check PMI's current requirements.

What is the difference between PMP and PRINCE2?

The PMP, from PMI, is broad and experience-based. PRINCE2 is a structured method with defined roles and processes, popular in UK, European and public-sector projects.

Should I learn agile or traditional methods?

Learn both. Scrum and agile credentials suit software teams, while PMP and PRINCE2 cover wider project environments. PMI-ACP bridges both.

How current is this page?

Links were checked in October 2026. Certification rules, exam content outlines and fees change often, so confirm details on each body's own page. Descriptions summarize each provider's pages, and listing is not an endorsement. PMI, Scrum.org, Scrum Alliance and several other sites block automated checks from my environment; those pages are kept and may need a manual click.
