### FAQ

#### Is a PMP certification worth it?

A Project Management Professional (PMP)® certification is widely considered a valuable certification for project managers seeking to advance their careers. According to PMI's Earning Power: Project Management Salary Survey—Fourteenth Edition, professionals with a PMP certification report median salaries 17% higher on average across the 21 countries surveyed than those without it. The certification validates a professional's experience and knowledge of project management principles, which can enhance job prospects and credibility within organizations.

#### What are the best certifications for project managers?

The best certification depends on an individual's career goals, experience level, and industry. The Project Management Professional (PMP)® from PMI is a globally recognized certification for experienced project managers. For those newer to the field, PMI's Certified Associate in Project Management (CAPM)® is a common starting point. Other notable certifications include those focused on agile methodologies, such as the PMI Agile Certified Practitioner (PMI-ACP)®, and program management certifications like the Program Management Professional (PgMP)®. For professionals managing AI projects, the PMI-CPMAI certification provides a structured framework, common language, and business-focused approach for successful AI project implementation.

#### How does PMI support career growth for professionals?

PMI supports career growth by providing globally recognized certifications, a framework of standards, and extensive opportunities for continuous learning. Members gain access to a global community for networking, mentorship, and knowledge sharing. The organization also produces research and thought leadership on emerging trends, helping professionals stay current with skills in areas like AI, agile practices, and strategic business management. These resources are designed to help professionals at all levels enhance their skills and advance their careers.

#### What is the PMBOK® Guide?

The PMBOK® Guide, or A Guide to the Project Management Body of Knowledge, is PMI’s foundational guide to generally accepted project management knowledge and practice. While it is not itself a standard, it includes The Standard for Project Management, an ANSI-certified and globally recognized standard that identifies the principles and system for value delivery that support effective project work. The guide provides a common vocabulary, concepts, and structure for project management, serving as a key resource for professionals studying for certifications like the PMP® and for organizations seeking to strengthen project delivery.

#### How is AI changing project management?

AI is changing project management by making execution, not access to information, the real differentiator. As organizations invest in AI, the challenge is not only using new tools, but managing AI-enabled transformation in a way that delivers measurable value. Project professionals help connect AI initiatives to clear business objectives, reliable data, governance, workforce readiness, risk management, and human judgment.  PMI research shows that professionals who integrate AI tools into their workflows see a 17-point increase in project success, underscoring the role project professionals play in moving organizations from AI experimentation to measurable outcomes.

#### What are the most important skills for a project manager?

Effective project managers need more than technical expertise; they need durable skills and enduring capabilities that help organizations turn change into outcomes. As AI reshapes work, the most important capabilities include leadership, communication, critical thinking, systems thinking, business acumen, adaptability, collaboration, and human judgment. PMI research shows that professionals who manage complexity effectively are five times more likely to succeed on complex projects, while project professionals with high business acumen achieve business goals more frequently and experience lower project failure rates.


#### How can I get involved with the PMI community?

Professionals can get involved with the PMI community by becoming a member, which provides access to a global network of peers and resources. Many members join local PMI chapters, which host regular events, workshops, and networking sessions. Online, PMI's projectmanagement.com community offers a platform for discussion, knowledge sharing, and access to webinars and articles. Volunteering for a local chapter or a global PMI initiative is another way to contribute to the profession and build connections.

#### What is the difference between PMP and CAPM?

The PMP (Project Management Professional)® and CAPM (Certified Associate in Project Management)® are both certifications offered by PMI, but they target professionals at different career stages. The CAPM is an entry-level certification designed for individuals with little or no project experience, validating their understanding of fundamental project management knowledge and terminology. The PMP is for experienced project managers and requires a combination of formal education and years of documented project leadership experience, making it a more advanced and globally recognized certification.

#### How does PMI support social impact?
PMI supports social impact by helping individuals, nonprofits, NGOs, and communities use project management to turn purpose into measurable outcomes. Through the PMI Educational Foundation, PMI expands access to project management education for youth worldwide, including underserved and underrepresented populations. Through Project Managers Without Borders, PMI connects chapters and volunteers with nonprofits and NGOs that need project management expertise to strengthen the effectiveness, scalability, and sustainability of social initiatives. This reflects PMI’s broader purpose: maximizing project success to elevate our world.

Amazon-owned [Twitch](http://fortune.com/2014/08/26/amazon-twitch-mike-frazzini/) is doubling down on eSports. The social video platform for gamers has partnered with San Diego-based independent developer Psyonix to launch the _Rocket League_ Championship Series later this month with registration opening on March 25.

The league will debut across PC and PlayStation 4, but Nick Allen, director of eSports operations at Twitch, says Xbox One will be added to the competition down the line.

“We’ll be focusing on online play for the early stages of the competition (qualifiers and regional finals), with the capstone event being a live, international championship,” Allen says.

Gamers will compete across the U.S. and Europe over a three-month season with the ultimate goal being to take home a portion of the $75,000 in prize money. Twitch will livestream the event, tapping into its audience of 100 million gamers.

“The _Rocket League_ Championship Series is our first eSports partnership effort since partnering with Capcom on the [Capcom Pro Tour](http://fortune.com/2015/12/04/capcom-street-fighter-esports/) back in 2014,” Allen says. “This marks a venture into a very deep, robust, and multiyear relationship, and while we’re not ruling out partnering with other leagues, we’re very selective with the game and developer we’d be open to working with.”

_Rocket League_, which was developed using Epic Games’[Unreal Engine 4](http://fortune.com/2015/03/03/epic-games-unreal-tech-free/) technology, is a downloadable game that boasts captivating visuals and fully customizable vehicles. That’s helped the game get nominated for over 100 Game of the Year Awards last year, and it’s allowed Psyonix to grow a global audience of over 12 million players. It also helps that the gameplay blends arcade-style soccer played with souped-up vehicles.

“What we admire about _Rocket League_ is the accessibility of the game,” Allen says. “Its parallels to traditional sports, combined with its fun and fast-paced style, make it entertaining for all audiences. Even if you haven’t played the game before, you can watch a clip and understand the core tenets of the gameplay—something that very few eSports games benefit from.”

Another indie studio, Riot Games, was able to build out a global eSports ecosystem that now sells out soccer stadiums with its [_League of Legends_](http://fortune.com/2015/10/29/league-of-legends-video-game-championship/) game. And that multiplayer online battle arena (MOBA) game is very complex for the average viewer to understand at first view. That didn’t stop 85 million people around the world from playing the game, and even more from watching professionals play it. Riot’s eSports success led to Chinese tech giant [Tencent](http://fortune.com/2015/12/22/tencent-completes-riot-games-acquisition/) acquiring the Los Angeles-based game developer.


In its first month of release in July 2015, _Rocket League_ catapulted from 165th place to a spot in the Top 5 on Twitch, and had over 5 million copies downloaded.

“We continue to see viewership growth around _Rocket League_ on Twitch, as streamers from all different gaming backgrounds continue to go back to playing it because of its fun and easy to learn gameplay,” Allen says.

Twitch plays a key role in the eSports community. In fact, professional gaming is what helped the company grow into the behemoth it is today. And it’s why Amazon acquired the company for $1 billion in 2014\. Allen says this eSports background has served the company’s second venture directly into an eSports league.

“The biggest thing we’ve learned is to listen to the community and remain flexible and amenable for what they want out of the competitive ecosystem,” Allen says. “One of the reasons we were so excited to partner with Psyonix around _Rocket League_ is because developing and supporting a highly professional eSports league is exactly what the community has been asking for.”


_Rocket League_ follows Hi-Rez Studios’ _Smite_ and Ubisoft’s [_Rainbow Six Siege_](http://fortune.com/2016/02/03/tom-clancy-esports/) leagues in offering multiple platforms for gamers to compete on.

“The passionate fan base can be found on both platforms, so we wanted to ensure both platforms had the opportunity to compete,” Allen says. “Also, since _Rocket League_ has the benefit of cross-platform play between PC and PS4, it made including both platforms an easy decision.”

505 Games will launch disc-based versions of _Rocket League_ on PS4 and Xbox One in Q3.
