### 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.

Three Baton Rouge police officers [were killed](http://time.com/4409883/baton-rouge-shooting-officers-dead/) and three more were injured on Sunday by a suspect identified as a former U.S. Marine sergeant. The suspect reportedly ambushed the police officers behind a store while they were responding to a report of a man armed with an assault rifle before 9 a.m. on Sunday morning.

The attacker, dressed in black and carrying extra ammunition, was killed after a gunfight with law enforcement lasting about eight minutes, according to Reuters. Long “certainly was seeking out police,” Louisiana State Police Superintendent Col. Mike Edmonson said Monday, [according to the Associated Press](http://time.com/4409923/baton-rouge-shooting-suspect-gavin-long-cosmo-setepenra/). “His movements, his direction, his attention was on police officers,” Edmonson said.

**Who Was the Shooter?**

The suspect has been identified as [Gavin Eugene Long](http://time.com/4409923/baton-rouge-shooting-suspect-gavin-long-cosmo-setepenra/), 29, a [former Marine](http://time.com/4409883/baton-rouge-shooting-officers-dead/?xid=homepage) from Kansas City, Mo. According to the Associated Press, Long’s military records show he served from 2005 to 2010, deploying in Iraq from June 2008 to January 2009\. A spokesman confirmed to the AP that Long briefly attended the University of Alabama in 2012.

In videos, photographs and messages reportedly posted online [using the alias](http://www.latimes.com/nation/la-na-baton-rouge-shooter-20160717-snap-story.html) “Cosmo Setepenra” or simply “Cosmo,” a web user with an email address associated with Long denounces recent shootings of black men by police. Baton Rouge itself erupted in protests after 37-year-old [Alton Sterling](http://time.com/4395459/alton-sterling-baton-rouge-police-shooting/) was shot to death on July 5 by a police officer, an incident that was captured in a cell-phone video later posted online. “Cosmo” reportedly urged black men viewing his online videos to make sacrifices for their race. “You gotta fight back,” he allegedly said in one post, according to [the _Guardian_](https://www.theguardian.com/us-news/2016/jul/17/baton-rouge-gunman-gavin-e-long-cosmo-setepenra-marines).

Two other individuals were detained briefly following Sunday’s shooting, but they were released without charge. Authorities [now believe](http://www.reuters.com/article/us-usa-police-idUSKCN0ZX0MX) Long acted alone.

**Who Were the Officers?**

[Three officers](http://time.com/4410004/baton-rouge-officers-shooting-remembrance/) have been confirmed dead, and another three were injured in the ambush.

The deceased officers have been named as Matthew Gerald, 42, Brad Garafola, 45, and Montrell Jackson, 32\. Jackson, a black officer, had [recently posted](http://time.com/4409885/baton-rouge-montrell-jackson-facebook-police/) a heartfelt Facebook message about his experiences as a patrolman in Baton Rouge amid heightened tensions following Sterling’s killing.

The AP cited a spokeswoman for the sheriff’s office identifying two of the police officers injured in the attack as deputies Nicholas Tullier, 41, and Bruce Simmons, 51\. Tullier, an 18-year veteran of the force, was in critical condition, spokeswoman Casey Rayborn Hicks told the AP.

**What Has the Reaction Been?**

Reuters [reports ](http://www.reuters.com/article/us-usa-police-idUSKCN0ZX0MX)that Louisiana Governor John Bel Edwards called the shootings an “unspeakable, heinous attack.”


“There simply is no place for more violence. That doesn’t help anyone, it doesn’t further the conversation, it doesn’t address any injustice, perceived or real. It is just an injustice in and of itself,” Edwards told reporters.

The shooting is the second time in two weeks that U.S. police officers have been targeted, amid heightened tensions from recent killings of black men by police. Another veteran, [Micah Johnson](http://time.com/4399702/dallas-shooting-micah-xavier-johnson/), targeted police in Dallas overseeing a Black Lives Matter rally in the city on July 8, killing five officers.

President Obama [in a statement](http://time.com/4409741/baton-rouge-police-barack-obama/) Sunday said the incidents targeting police were “attacks on public servants, on the rule of law and on civilized society, and they have to stop.”

“These attacks are the work of cowards who speak for no one. They right no wrongs. They advance no causes,” Obama said.
