### 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.

Jun 11, 2019 8:09 PM UTC

Ah, the Electronics Entertainment Expo, or E3 for short — that time of the year when the video game industry gathers to tell us all about the incredible games and projects it’s working on. From a _Breath of the Wild_ sequel to Keanu Reeves taking the stage and calling us all “breathtaking,” this year’s E3 has been a whirlwind of stellar moments and exciting announcements. 

Here are the games, consoles and other announcements that got our blood pumping at E3 2019:

## **Cyberpunk 2077**

The biggest moment and the coolest game of E3 came courtesy of Polish developer CD Projekt Red’s first-person shooter RPG, _Cyberpunk 2077_. Set in Night City, California, _Cyberpunk 2077_ is an open world sandbox where players fight against evil mega-corporations using body augmentation. That’s cool, but CD Projekt Red delivered the best moment of E3 when it revealed Keanu Reeves is in the game. 

“You’re breathtaking,” Reeves said, after taking the stage to reveal _Cyberpunk 2077’s_ release date. “You’re all breathtaking.”

You can hang out in the dystopian future with Reeves starting April 16, 2020 on PC, PlayStation 4, and Xbox One.

## **Project Scarlett**

This isn’t a game, but it’s still huge news. Microsoft’s next Xbox console — which it’s calling “Project Scarlett” for now — is coming in the holiday season of 2020\. The graphics look nice, but the team at Microsoft said it’s focusing more on performance for the next generation of consoles. Microsoft claims that means almost no loading times and high frame rates that’ll make games feel as good as they look. 

## **Halo Infinite**

A new console is pointless if there aren’t new games to play on it. Project Scarlett is launching with _Halo Infinite_, the latest installment in the ongoing adventures of Master Chief. The trailer is cut from in-game footage running on Project Scarlett. It didn’t show gameplay, but it’s safe to assume _Infinite_ will feature Master Chief gunning down aliens from a first-person perspective.


## **Doom Eternal**

Rip and tear through heaven and hell in _Doom Eternal_. The follow up to 2016’s reboot of the classic 90s first-person shooter, _Doom Eternal_ lets players kill demons in extreme and entertaining ways. What more do you need to know?

Players can get their hands dirty with demon entrails on November 22, 2019 on PC, Xbox One, PlayStation 4, and Nintendo Switch.

## **The Legend of Zelda: Breath of the Wild Sequel**


_The Legend of Zelda: Breath of the Wild_ was the best-selling Zelda game of all time. It makes sense then that Nintendo is working on a direct sequel, something it doesn’t often do for Zelda games. The trailer isn’t long and features Zelda and Link exploring a crypt and encountering the desiccated corpse of a princess who comes alive. Very creepy and very cool. Also clearly very early in development.

## **Death Stranding**

_Death Stranding_ is the first new IP in more than a decade from Hideo Kojima, the auteur video game developer behind the _Metal Gear Solid_ franchise. It looks to have everything Kojima is known for — a nonsensical yet hypnotic story, breathtaking cinematics, and great game design. This time, however, a roster of incredible actors is delivering his dialogue. _Death Stranding_ stars Norma Reedus, Mads Mikkelsen, Léa Seydoux, and Guillermo Del Toro in a third-person action game whose trailer begs more questions than it answers.


Find out what _Death Stranding_ is all about on November 8, 2019.

## **Star Wars Jedi: Fallen Order**

Fans of _Star Wars_ video games have had a bad run since publisher Electronic Arts took over the license a few years ago. _Star Wars: Battlefront II_ was an alright shooter, but is mostly remembered as the game that introduced lawmakers and worried parents to lootboxes. _Star Wars Jedi: Fallen Order_ looks like an attempt to win back the audience. Set after the events of _Star Wars: Revenge of the Sith_, players take control of Cal Kestis—played by _Gotham’s_ Cameron Moaghan—as he learns the ways of the force and attempts to rebuild the Jedi Order. There are lightsaber battles, force powers, Stormtroopers, and the morally dubious resistance leader Saw Gerrera.


_Star Wars Jedi: Fallen Order_ comes to PC, PlayStation 4, and Xbox One on November 15, 2019.

## **Wolfenstein: Youngblood**

The _Wolfenstein_ franchise proved that taking down Nazis can feel really good. _Wolfenstein: Youngblood_, the third installment in the modern incarnation of the first-person shooter series, is all about killing Nazis with a friend. Series hero BJ Blazkowicz is lost in Nazi-occupied Paris, and it’s up to his daughters to track down their dad, even if they have to shoot through the entire Third Reich to do it.

Players can team up with a friend to rid France of Nazis on July 26, 2019 on PC, Xbox One, PlayStation 4 and Nintendo Switch.


## **Elden Ring**

_Game of Thrones_ author George R.R. Martin has been busy since the most popular television show of all time launched. In addition to writing his iconic book series, he’s helped Japanese video game developer FromSoftware create _Elden Ring,_ an action RPG set in a world Martin developed. FromSoftware is famous for its notoriously difficult and rewarding cult classic _Dark Souls_ series. The combination of Martin’s imagination and FromSoftware’s excellent design make _Elden Ring_ a game to watch out for.

## **The Outer Worlds**


_The Outer Worlds_ is basically _Fallout_ in space. Obsidian, the developers behind _Fallout: New Vegas_, are experts at creating bizarre science fiction worlds. _The Outer Worlds_ trades the post-apocalypse for a brighter future where humans have colonized the stars. The only problem is that huge corporations run those colonies. Enter the player, who — in classic RPG style — can become a hero, villain, or sociopath. Like _Fallout_, _The Outer Worlds_ is a first-person RPG.

The Outer Worlds comes to PC, Xbox One and PlayStation 4 on October 25, 2019.

## **Watch Dogs: Legion**

_Watch Dogs: Legion_ is a third-person action game set in a post-Brexit London. According to the trailer, extremism is on the rise, the government’s abandoned all hope, and cops are brutalizing citizens. The player works with DedSec, a hacker collective recruiting people to fight the powers that be. In previous _Watch Dogs_ games, players could hack anything and snoop through people’s phones for private information. _Legion_ continues the trend, but allows players to recruit anyone from young punks to retired grandmothers to the cause. Go anywhere, hack anything, and recruit anyone.


Players can build the resistance on March 6, 2020 on the PC, Xbox One, and PlayStation 4.

## **Marvel’s Avengers: A-Day**

The Marvel Cinematic Universe dominates the box office, but has been largely absent from video games. Publisher Square Enix is changing all that with _Marvel’s Avengers: A-Day_, a third-person action game where players take control of Thor, Black Widow, Hulk, Iron Man, and Captain America. _Marvel’s Avengers: A-Day_ promises an original story and an online mode that lets players team up with friends and fight through comic book scenarios together.

The Avengers assemble on Xbox One and PlayStation 4 on May 15, 2020.


## **Final Fantasy VII Remake**

Released in 1997, _Final Fantasy VII_ is a beloved game that introduced millions of fans to RPGs. It had it all: incredible music, compelling characters, and a fully realized 3D world. More than 20 years later, publisher Square Enix is giving Cloud, Sephiroth, and Aerith a complete makeover it hopes will appeal to nostalgic fans and curious newcomers alike. More than just a remaster, _Final Fantasy VII_ _Remake_ includes entirely new graphics, voice acting, and a completely reworked combat system.

Fans cam jump back into Midgar on the Playstation 4 on March 3, 2020.

## **Google Stadia**


Google is diving into the video game business with Stadia, an online platform it claims will let gamers stream the newest titles in 4K using their home internet connection. The basic package costs $129 and comes with a Chromecast-style receiver and a Stadia controller. The catch is players have to pay a monthly $9.99 for 4K and surround sound. Meanwhile, some games come with the subscription, while others have to be purchased individually.

Google Stadia launches in November.
