PMP® Preparation Course - Basic Program

Description

Project management standards provide a common language for all project participants. They encourage formal recognition of responsibilities within a project and focus on what a project is supposed to deliver, why, when and from whom.

The Project Management Body of Knowledge (PMBOK® Guide) by the Project Management Institute (PMI®) is the international standard on project management.

It is more and more used in companies because project managers are using the same way of executing projects, same vocabulary etc

Project Management Professional (PMP®) is the highest PMI® professional credential and became the international recognized benchmark within project management.

In consequence the PMP® Certification is only awarded to experienced project managers.
