### 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.

[00:07] It's never too late for a financial makeover, and as we
[00:10] reach 2019, more and more Americans seem to have
[00:13] money on the mind. A survey by GoBanking Rates
[00:16] revealed that one in every four Americans are worried
[00:18] about their personal finances for the New Year.
[00:21] Melinnials, in particular, are itching to restructure their
[00:24] financial plans to meet their money goals. According to
[00:27] Principle Financial Services, 94 % of millennials plan on
[00:31] making financial resolutions in 2019, the highest
[00:34] pentage of any generation. But how do you actually
[00:37] revamp your finances? Well first you need to take a
[00:40] hard look at your current financial state. It's important
[00:43] to track your spending for at least a month, to
[00:45] accurately examine what you're taking in after taxes,
[00:48] as well as what your expenses and spending habits
[00:50] are. Next, a closer look at details of your financial
[00:54] accounts, like the interest rates on your credit cards,
[00:56] the fees on your investment and retirement accounts.
[00:59] And what you're actually investing in, then prioritize
[01:02] saving and re- establishing your credit. Life makes it
[01:05] easy to tap into your saving accounts, but without a
[01:08] cushion for unexpected bills, you can quickly rack up
[01:11] debt. Support your financial security with a goal to save
[01:14] six months' worth of net income in the bank. And if you
[01:17] haven't made a single contribution to your IRA this
[01:20] year, contributions can still be made until April 15th
[01:23] for the previous year. According to Bankrate, nearly
[01:26] one in four Americans say they have more credit card
[01:29] debt than emergency savings. Effective way to pay off
[01:32] credit card debt is to organize your bills by the highest
[01:35] APR and ensure you are making minimum timely
[01:38] payments on those accounts. Invest in new tools
[01:41] because you can't do it alone. From apps that track
[01:44] your monthly spending habits and [ UNKNOWN ] you
[01:46] extra savings like Trim to Robo Advisors that ensure
[01:49] you're strategically investing every month. There is
[01:52] plenty of new tools that make it easier for you to stick
[01:54] to your new financial goals. And with the year coming
[01:57] to an close, what would you keep in mind when
[01:59] handling your money in 2019? When the
[02:02] Editor- in- Chief Adam Auriemma shares his advice.
[02:07] Hey Adam thanks so much for having us here at the
[02:08] Breakdown. Let �� s get right to it, the new year is
[02:11] quickly approaching people are really looking to get a
[02:14] hold of their finances. So what �� s your top advice for
[02:17] someone who �� s trying to start fresh? Sure thanks. I
[02:20] think if you �� re trying to start fresh it �� s really
[02:21] important to know where your starting from So it
[02:24] sounds very basic, but my top piece of advice is just
[02:26] know your numbers. How much are you spending and
[02:29] how much are you bringing in? So over the course of a
[02:31] month, track your spending, write it all down, compare
[02:34] it with your after tax income. And those two numbers
[02:38] alone will help you figure out, you know, what are your
[02:40] challenges and opportunities here. And do you have
[02:42] any finantial tips or hacks that you recommend? Sure, I
[02:46] mean, if you're looking for an easy win at the
[02:48] begginning of the new year, I'd definitely take a look at
[02:51] any savings accounts you have. So if you're lucky
[02:53] enough to have a savings account, you may have it at a
[02:55] traditional big bank and you're making a fraction of the
[02:58] percent on interest. But there are a lot of new online
[03:01] banks, places like Ally, where you can get up to 2 % for
[03:04] a high- yield savings account with no minimum
[03:07] balance. So that's an win for you. Have your money
[03:09] make more money for you. Mm- hm, okay. So you've
[03:12] been editor in chief for Money Magazine for two years
[03:15] now. That's an amazing accomplishment. So how has
[03:17] your work impacted your financial outlook? You know I
[03:21] think it just made me realize how important it is that
[03:23] you really take control of your finances. So no one's
[03:26] gonna do it for you. That there are a lot of tools and
[03:28] resources out there that can help you. And you really
[03:31] need to craft a plan that works for you. Maybe you're
[03:34] more traditional conservative investor. Maybe you
[03:36] wanna just invest in the stock market a little by little
[03:39] over a long course. Or maybe you're more
[03:41] entrepreneurial and you wanna figure out how to start
[03:43] a business or take advantage of this new digital
[03:46] economy. Whatever works for you, you have to make
[03:49] your own plan that fits your style. All right, very
[03:52] insightful as always, thnak you so much for joining us.
[03:55] Of course, thank you.
