### 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.

[TIME](https://time.com/author/time/)

Apr 27, 1959 4:00 AM UTC

Compulsion. Meyer Levin’s bestselling casebook of “The Crime of the Century,” the Leopold-Loeb murder case of 1924, makes a tense, intelligent melodrama. 

Alias Jesse James. The best Bob Hope picture since old fender-nose and The Groaner stopped traveling The Road. 

The Diary of Anne Frank. A massive and moving epic of the Dutch Jewish girl and her family in hiding during World War II. A fine performance by Newcomer Millie Perkins as Anne, and brilliant direction by George Stevens. 

Some Like It Hot. Director Billy Wilder gets as many laughs as possible out of the gimmick of female impersonation, largely because the impersonators are Tony Curtis and Jack Lemmon, and the object of their attentions a wickedly skilled comedienne: Marilyn Monroe. 

The Sound and the Fury. Joanne Woodward, Yul Brynner, Margaret Leighton in Hollywood’s skillful and carefully laundered treatment of a William Faulkner novel. 

The Mistress (Japanese). A poignant Eastern view of a fallen woman, who rises by union with nature rather than by struggle against it. 

He Who Must Die (French). The screen’s most compelling religious statement in years. 

TELEVISION 

Wed., April 22 

United States Steel Hour (CBS, 10-11 p.m.).\* A first teleplay by Joe Palmer Jr.; Actor Richard Boone (The Rivalry; Have Gun, Will Travel) plays a tuberculosis patient of unusual imagination. 

Thurs., April 23 

Du Pont Show of the Month (CBS, 8-9:30 p.m.), starring Sir John Gielgud and Margaret Leighton, in a superior version of The Browning Version, Terence Rattigan’s sentimental play about an embittered British schoolmaster and the little boy who gives him back his self-respect. 

Fri., April 24 

Gene Kelly Pontiac Special (CBS, 9:30-10:30 p.m.). Gene Kelly running and dancing wild to a background of a new poem by Carl Sandburg, a jazz jam session by Arranger Nelson Riddle, a ballet score by Peter Gunn Composer Henry Mancini. 

Your Hit Parade (CBS, 7:30-8 p.m.). Dorothy Collins and Johnny Desmond sing taps at the funeral of a show that, since 1935, has taken everything the tunesmiths and a faddist public could throw at it, is finally succumbing to the effects of rock ‘n’ roll. 

Sun., April 26 

Johns Hopkins File 7 (ABC, 12:30-1 p.m.). A fascinating look at the evidence that a few hardy explorers—the Vikings, a Scandinavian named Bjarni Herjulfson, or an Irish saint named Brendan—may have sighted North America’s shores centuries before Columbus peeked over the horizon. 

Tournament of Champions (NBC, 6-7 p.m.). The windup of the high-money ($40,000) invitational golf tournament at Las Vegas, with such shooters as Masters Champion Art Wall Jr., Arnold Palmer, Gene Littler and Gary Middlecoff gunning for the green. 

Twentieth Century (CBS, 6:30-7 p.m.). A repeat of the film on the building of the 3,600-m.p.h. X-15 rocket plane, and a look at the men who will fly it. 

Pete Kelly’s Blues (NBC, 8:30-9 p.m.). The music, in this series about a cornet player forever running head on into underworld bricks, is authentically blue, but the story line is too often merely mauve. 

Meet Me in St. Louis (CBS, 9-11 p.m.). Jane Powell, in the role that carried Judy Garland far beyond the end of the trolley line; with Walter Pidgeon, Myrna Loy, Jeanne Grain and all the old songs. 

Mon., April 27 

Bold Journey (ABC, 8:30-9 p.m.). More adventure, this time a filmed account of 5,000 miles of canoemanship on the rivers of the U.S. 

The Jack Paar Show (NBC, 11:15 p.m.1 a.m.). A misnomer for this week, as whimsical Eddie Albert and wife Margo mind the store for the vacationing Paar. 

Tues., April 28 

Hallmark Hall of Fame (NBC, 9:30-11 p.m.). Helen Hayes, Lloyd Nolan, Burgess Meredith in an ambitious assault on Eugene O’Neill’s Ah, Wilderness! 

THEATER 

On Broadway 

A Raisin in the Sun. The Drama Critics’ Circle prize play about a South Side Chicago Negro family’s deferred dreams, budding hopes and inner conflicts. Honestly observed, superlatively acted. 

Redhead. A faltering musical whodunit kept on the spin through the matchless body English of Musicomedienne Gwen Verdon. 

J.B. Job in the guise of a wealthy modern businessman. Though Archibald MacLeish’s version lacks Biblical richness of speech and rigor of logic, it brings excitement to the theater. 

La Plume de Ma Tante. This antic French revue is virtually speechless, and so are its laugh-weary audiences. 

Flower Drum Song. Rodgers & Hammerstein’s blithe-spirited romp through San Francisco’s Chinatown. 

A Touch of the Poet. The late Eugene O’Neill’s trenchant portrait of an alcoholic innkeeper who cannot live up to his illusions, or without them. 

Two for the Seesaw. The way of an Omaha man with a Greenwich Village maid is often funny and bittersweet. 

Off Broadway 

Mark Twain Tonight! A vividly lifelike re-creation of the great white-maned humorist as a platform-stager of 70\. In a brilliant one-man feat, 34-year-old Hal Holbrook flourishes Twain’s omnipresent cigar like a wand over two hours of delightfully recaptured Americana. 

On Tour 

The Warm Peninsula. Julie Harris as a Milwaukee miss who wants what some Miami socialites have got. In TORONTO. 

My Fair Lady in CINCINNATI, Two for the Seesaw in KANSAS CITY and DENVER, and The Music Man in CHICAGO do justice to the Broadway originals.
