Course Overview

Projects are the main vehicles of the global economy today and organisations use them to generate business value. As temporary management systems, projects provide flexibility and enable organisations to accurately measure their returns from all their initiatives. Hence, project management has become a strategic competence for organisations looking to secure their competitive advantage and achieve their strategic goals in efficient and effective ways.

The PMP® Certification program covers the aspects of projects for their management and provides an in-depth view of project management best practices, using the Project Management Institute’s (PMI) world renowned framework for Project Management, aligned with the PMBOK® Guide – Eighth Edition. The 8th Edition bridges the structured process guidance of earlier editions with the principles-based flexibility introduced in the 7th Edition, while incorporating emerging topics such as Artificial Intelligence (AI), sustainability, and value-driven delivery.

It prepares participants for the PMP® certification exam which is the most industry-recognized certification for project managers. Beyond preparing participants for the PMP® Certification, it provides participants with the skills to manage projects of any size, across any industry, as well as the basis upon which they can continually improve their skills as project management practitioners.


Training Objectives

The PMP® Certification Program has two major objectives: (1) teach participants how to manage projects using project management best practices aligned with the PMBOK® Guide – Eighth Edition, and (2) prepare those participants interested in becoming PMP® certified for the relevant examination. By the end of the programme, participants will:

  • Learn and understand the various aspects, definitions and elements of projects and project management

  • Understand the foundational elements of project management

  • Be able to manage the environmental, strategic and emerging factors affecting projects, including sustainability and AI integration

  • Learn and use a structured yet adaptable way of managing their projects across predictive, agile, and hybrid approaches

  • Organise their path towards their certification
