### 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.

Names make news. Last week these names made this news: 

After producing three children and five bad movies, Actress Ingrid Bergman, 40, and Italian Director Roberto Rossellini, 51, signed a legal separation agreement in Rome. Winding up seven years of a waning marriage, Ingrid prepared with visible relief to resume her film career in England. At week’s end Romeo Rossellini had vanished toward the north of Italy. 

At a reunion with veterans of Britain’s disastrous World War 1 Gallipoli invasion, Earl Attlee, 74, onetime Laborite Prime Minister and himself a British army survivor of Gallipoli, paid more than tribute to a former political adversary, ex-Tory Prime Minister Sir Winston Churchill, 82\. Churchill is generally still held accountable by historians as the master misstrategist behind the Gallipoli debacle (205,000 British casualties). Attlee was determined to vindicate onetime First Lord of the Admiralty Churchill: “If we had had Sir Winston instead of \[Prime Minister\] Earl Asquith and \[Prime Minister David\] Lloyd George in the 1914-18 war, he would have saved a million lives. \[Gallipoli\] was an immortal gamble that did not come off … Sir Winston . . . had the one strategic idea in the war. He did not believe in throwing away masses of people to be massacred.” 

After unveiling a well-veiled figure of Cinemorsel Marilyn Monroe, the proprietors of Madame Tussaud’s wax museum in London confirmed that the statue wears no lingerie. In a sort of sexless Statue-of-Liberty pose, the figure, neighbor to a likeness of Britain’s Actor Sir Ralph Richardson, brings Marilyn the honor of being the only U.S.-born cinemactress currently exhibited by the famed museum. Only U.S.-born cinemactors on display at the moment: Danny Kaye and Alan Ladd. 

Cinemale Marlon Brando, in a New Yorker profile by wispy-banged Author Truman Capote, recalled the late Cinemactor James Dean: “He had an idée fixe about me. Whatever I did he did. He was always trying to get close to me. He used to call up. I’d listen to him talking to the answering service, asking for me, leaving messages. But I never spoke up. I never called him back . . . When I finally met Dean, it was at a party. Where he was throwing himself around, acting the madman … I took him aside and asked him, didn’t he know he was sick? That he needed help? … He knew he was sick, I gave him the name of an analyst, and he went.” Another chap who still has an idée fixe about him, complained Brando, is Playwright Tennessee Williams, who cannot seem to accept the fact that Marlon is not at all like brutal Stanley Kowalski, the slobbish lecher played by Brando on both Broadway and the screen in Williams’ A Streetcar Named Desire. Brando’s claim: a clear case of mistaken identity. Mumbled Marlon to Truman: “Tennessee has made a fixed association between me and Kolwalski. I mean, we’re friends and he knows that as a person I am just the opposite of Kowalski, who was everything I’m against—totally insensitive, crude, cruel. But still Tennessee’s image of me is confused . . .” 

Indestructible Tallulah Bankhead, fond of regarding herself as the most outspoken lady of the U.S. theater, tersely philosophized on the contemporary T-shirt school of Methodical actors: “They’re just wasting themselves. They’re just learning to be a bunch of apes. They’ll never be able to perform the classics or Shakespearean dramas. They’re just learning how to pick their noses.” 

Ill lay: New York Times Publisher Arthur Hays Sulzberger, 66, in a Rangoon hospital after being felled by a mild stroke that will probably end his current globe-girdling tour; dyspeptic Columnist Westbrook Pegler, 63, in Boston for an ulcer checkup. 

At Parliament’s opening, Britain’s Queen Elizabeth 11, her words coming both for and from her ministers, announced that the Tory government will shortly introduce legislation creating lifetime peerages for both men and women. Such a law, if passed, would for the first time in history plunk “lady lords” down beside gentleman lords in Britain’s Upper House.\* This stratospheric feminist victory was hailed by “delighted” Virginia-born Lady Astor, 78, bodkin-tongued widow of a viscount and first woman to sit in the House of Commons. With due appreciation to the Queen, Nancy Astor said: “I hope they will create me a lifetime peeress!” 

Slated for unopposed election this week as Jewish co-chairman of the National Conference of Christians and Jews: Investment Banker Lewis L. Strauss, chairman of the Atomic Energy Commission. His holdover colleagues: Catholic James F. Twohy, West Coast finance executive, and Protestant Benjamin F. Fairless, onetime head of U.S. Steel. 

In the Japanese seaside village of Kawana, hell-for-celluloid Director John Huston was about to shoot a panoramic movie scene encompassing some 350 fisherfolk extras, all decked out in elaborate 19th century samurai costumes, tunics, kimonos and big wigs. Suddenly a voice bellowed in Japanese over the village’s loudspeaker: “Dolphins!” Departing radically from the script, the male extras quickly put to sea in Huston’s rented sampans while the women took off their film kimonos and excitedly awaited the return of their men. Net catch for the inscrutable villagers: 270 dolphins worth $3,500 in the seafood market. Net loss to the scrutable Huston (who filmed the unscheduled slaughter for the celluloidal hell of it): four men’s wigs, a half day and $15,000 in shooting time. 

\*In Britain’s hereditary peerage 24 women really own their own titles, but may not now sit with their male peers.
