### 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.

Aug 7, 1989 4:00 AM UTC

^ There has been so much talk of late of the cold war ending and the arms race receding, the whole geopolitical world shifting on its very foundations, that we have had little time to notice how quickly the battle of the sexes has been heating up. These, in fact, are hard times for lovers; in the age of AIDS and the palimony suit, an affair of the heart seems less a matter of chemistry than of medicine and law and politics. The pattern now, it appears, is boy meets girl (or sometimes boy), quizzes on sexual history, comes clean with an update on his own antisocial diseases and puts it all down in writing, for the lawyers. Precoital tristesse, in short. Shall I compare thee to a summer’s day? O.K. But remember that in 1989, summer days are apt to be murky with smog, uncomfortably hot thanks to the greenhouse effect and filled with lo-cal sequels.

What, then, one wonders on an idle summer evening, would the Shakespeare of Midsummer Night’s Dream make of us, and what can we make of him? The first thing we notice when we see his play today is how little love has changed, with all its harsh geometry of triangles and unrequited passions; nor do we have any difficulty recognizing its evergreen cast of characters: the impatient suitor trying to persuade his girl to let him share her bed, the fair-weather swain shifting in an instant from rhapsody to rancor, the lovers plotting to escape a tyrannical father (only to find that they cannot so easily escape themselves). Puck, we realize, would make a dream host on The Love Connection, and the rude mechanicals, rehearsing “most obscenely and courageously,” would surely be an instant hit on prime time. We recognize, too, that the malaprop artists’ confusion of “paragon” and “paramour” is not an idle joke; the idealizing of love is as old as broken hearts.

In some respects, the comedy of musical beds and drugs and knockabout buffoonery seems almost made for MTV. The scene of two young men playing mixed doubles with their interchangeable girlfriends would not seem strange to the kids in Bret Easton Ellis novels, who fall into bed with anyone at all, scarcely stopping to ascertain identity, or even sex. Titania’s sudden passion for ass-headed Bottom seems almost natural in the age of Ecstasy, when someone who takes a tab of MDMA is liable to open her heart to the first person she sees. And Pyramus and Thisbe, wooing each other through a chink in a wall, might almost be model paramours — paragons, in fact — for the “safe sex” generation.

Besides, “the course of true love never did run smooth,” as Lysander observes, and in seeing the muddle of our own times we are apt to overlook the fact that it was ever so. Faithlessness was hardly patented by Cressida, and even in Shakespeare’s day, the theaters were full of Roman numerals. Sequels follow sequels. Romeo, let us not forget, was a heartstrong adolescent unable to imagine any girl save Rosaline — until he set eyes on Juliet; and Juliet was a 13-year-old upstart who roundly abused both her murdering Romeo and her devoted nurse. Shakespeare himself addresses some of his most heartfelt statements of love to a beautiful young man, and to a mysterious “dark lady” who was not his wife.

Yet even though the heart may not have changed, the pressures and restrictions brought to bear on it have surely done so. The whole thrust of Shakespeare’s play, after all, is that “lovers and madmen have such seething brains,” that lovers, in short, are too full of folly, too much aflame, too rich in their imaginations. Nowadays, often, our problem seems just the opposite. Prudence makes us measure out our hearts with coffee spoons, and discretion is the better part of Valium. Love has always been a messy affair, and that is precisely why it cannot be easily legislated. Make romance a thing for lawyers, and callousness and shame turn into crime and punishment. Yet today we have girls suing their dates for standing them up, and star-crossed ex-lovers — the former partners of William Hurt, Mike Tyson and Rock Hudson, to name but three — counting the emotional cost in millions. Litigation means never having to say you’re sorry.

Technology, too, serves to make our liaisons more dangerous. Rob Lowe was apparently uncovered by a videotape, common-law suitors are often betrayed by photographs, and, in response to all this, more and more people choose to interface, date or even make love over the phone. If a modern Juliet were to try to reach her lover before feigning her own death, she might well hear, “Hi! This is Romeo! Nobody’s here right now . . .”

All this is not to suggest that caution is a bad thing: Romeo and Juliet died prematurely, after all. Romance has always included some degree of calculation. Indeed, the very notion of true love, according to many scholars, is a relatively recent invention; in most places, in most times, marriage has been a practical arrangement. Those who scoff at matrimonial ads in Indian papers may have few qualms about placing SWM notices in their local tabloids; a blind date is only an arranged marriage in potentia. If disease and collision liability have put a crimp in promiscuity, that may be all to the good. But just because love cannot be free, does it have to be so costly?

Perhaps in the end, then, the thing that separates us most from Shakespeare is simply his belief in fairies who can solve all our confusions by going above the heads of lawmakers. The classic premise of comedy, and the ritual revelry from which it springs, is of a story that concludes with a vision of unity, of natural harmony. So, after all the lunacies and bumps of Shakespeare’s starlit night are over, the spirits come down to put everything to right, and the lovers awaken with the morning lark only to suspect that it was all a dream. Love is blind, and its victims are mad, the poet suggests, but only for a night, a brief, forgetful spell. Perhaps even in 1600 that might have seemed an escapist thought; in 1989, however, a midsummer night’s dream may be our best hope of a happy ending.
