### 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.

Deposed Venezuelan President Nicolas Maduro pleaded not guilty to drug trafficking charges in a New York court on Monday, calling himself a “decent man” and “a prisoner of war” as he made his first U.S. court appearance since he was [captured](https://time.com/7342941/venezuela-maduro-bombing-trump-delta-force/) by American forces over the weekend.

Maduro is accused of narco-terrorism and conspiracy to import cocaine, among other charges. [His wife, Cilia Flores,](https://time.com/7343188/who-is-cilia-flores-maduro-wife-venezuela-politics/) and son, Nicolás Ernesto Maduro Guerra, have also been charged, as have other Venezuelan officials. They could face life sentences if convicted.

The deposed Venezuelan leader repeatedly proclaimed his innocence during the arraignment, which took place shortly after noon on Monday. “I am innocent. I am not guilty of anything that is mentioned here,” Maduro said, wearing a blue prison uniform, before Judge Alvin K Hellerstein. 

Flores entered her own not guilty plea after her husband. “Not guilty. Completely innocent,” she said. 

Maduro also asserted that he remains the leader of Venezuela, saying, “I am still president of my country.” Flores similarly called herself the “first lady of the Republic of Venezuela” before entering her plea.

Maduro’s lawyers are expected to argue that he is immune from prosecution due to his position as the president of a foreign state. The U.S., however, does not recognize Maduro as the legitimate leader of Venezuela, having rejected his last two electoral victories. 

Near the end of the hearing, Maduro attorney Barry J. Pollack said that his client was “head of a sovereign state and entitled to the privilege” of such a position and that “voluminous” filings related to the “legality of his military abduction” would precede a trial. 

The court proceedings lasted just under 30 minutes, and Maduro and Flores agreed to remain in custody for the time being. Flores’s attorney Mark Donelly said that she required medical attention due to injuries to her ribs.

Maduro’s next court date is set for March 17.

As he exited the courtroom, a man called Maduro "illegitimate," to which Maduro responded in Spanish, “I am a kidnapped president,” and called himself “a prisoner of war.” 

Also on Monday, Venezuelan Vice President [Delcy Rodríguez](https://time.com/7343035/delcy-rodriguez-venezuela-president/) was officially sworn in as the country’s interim president. Rodríguez has served as the nation’s vice president since 2018, and was named by Trump on Saturday as the most likely candidate to succeed Maduro.


“She, I think, was quite gracious, but she really doesn’t have a choice,” Trump said on Saturday. “She is essentially willing to do what we think is necessary to make Venezuela great again. Very simple.”

Rodríguez, though, stressed that Maduro is still Venezuela’s president and criticized America’s actions in the country.

“I come with sorrow for the suffering inflicted upon the Venezuelan people following an illegitimate military aggression against our homeland,” she said, as reported by The Associated Press. “I come with sorrow for the kidnapping of two heroes.”
