### 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.

Who’s in Charge? 

To the Editors: 

I wish Jimmy Carter could have read your story on leadership \[Aug. 6\] aloud on his Sunday TV talk after returning from the mountain, instead of giving us that “peanut butter and jelly” saga. 

Will Rogers San Francisco 

Your concise and rational analysis should be required reading of every student, every elected official, indeed every citizen of this country. Perhaps then, when the man on horseback finally does arrive, he will be in the tradition of Jefferson, not Hitler. 

Gordon M. Hochberg Port Chester, N. Y. 

America’s quest for a strong leader is oddly reminiscent of Nietzsche’s memorable adage: “Said the sheep: ‘Leader, guide us, so we won’t be afraid to follow you.’ Replied the leader: ‘Sheep, follow me, so I won’t be afraid to guide you.’ ” 

Gunther Volk 

Marburg-Dagobertshausen West Germany 

The people are not following because they are in a state of denial. We are about to lose a part of the American dream and to follow Carter is to accept rather than deny. When they perceive the paucity of paths before them, Americans will support the President’s efforts. 

Roger Venable, M.D. Fort Gordon, Ga. 

Of the 50 faces for America’s future listed, 45 are from east of the Mississippi. Is there really such a dearth of brains and leadership in the vast Midwest and West? 

Robert K. Garrity 

Newbury Park, Calif. 

Why no future leaders from the conservation or environmental movement? 

Norman B. Wood Delafield, Wis. 

Your list contains not one member of this nation’s finest school of leadership, the military. 

CWO2 Dean M. Thompson 

Officer-in -Charge 

NALF, Alice/Orange Grove, Texas 

Incredible. You ignored Muhammad Ali, the world’s best known American. 

Lawrence Martin Washington, D.C. 

What about Kate Millett? Angela Davis? Jane Fonda? Crystal Lee Sutton? 

Greg Dillensnyder Pittsburgh 

Peace Corps Boss Richard Celeste? 

Larry S. Pollak North Canton, Ohio 

Clamma Dale, the new Beverly Sills? 

Louis A. Baer 

Pikesville, Md. 

I am both humbled and challenged by your surprising selection. 

Sister Elizabeth Morancy, R.S.M. Providence 

Rosalynn’s Role 

It is a joy to know that Rosalynn Carter is quietly counseling Jimmy \[Aug. 6\]. She has probably kept him from making many more mistakes. How many wives have you seen put a restraining hand on their husband’s arm, be it ball games, barrooms or business, and say “Now, dear.” It says a lot of good things about Jimmy that he gives Rosalynn the credit that she is due. 

Georgia Perkins Memphis 

It scares the devil out of me to think Rosalynn is her Jimmy’s closest adviser. There’s not a general or admiral alive who would be allowed to let his wife sit in on “commander’s calls,” much less help to devise a battle plan. A First Lady? Yes! A copresident? No sir. 

Luverne P. Hinson Augusta, Ga. 

Israel vs. the Bedouins 

The Israeli government proposes to resettle forcibly these nomadic people in industrial townships, completely against their will and without right of appeal \[Aug. 6\]. To me this smacks of the Warsaw ghetto. Will there be barbed-wire-topped walls to keep the Bedouins in their new “homes”? 

Cynthia A. Carrington Lawrence, Kans. 

Bedouins have always prospered under Israeli rule, having full rights, free medical and social services, educational opportunities, etc. Some will have to move, but so will even more Israelis and from more permanent and established homes—that is the price of peace. 

Aaron Seruya San Francisco 

A Note of Sympathy My comment concerning the President being all alone and naked as a jaybird \[July 30\] is juxtaposed misleadingly with another concerning his request for the resignations of his Cabinet. In fact, it concerned an entirely different point, meant to be sympathetic: namely, that the various parts of our political system are functioning to produce fragmentation instead of a mutually reinforcing whole, and that he is not being helped at all—by Congress, Cabinet parochialism, regional partisanship, and various diverse interests —in forging cohesive national policy. 

Jonathan Moore 

John F. Kennedy School of Government Harvard University, Cambridge, Mass. 

St. George in Ohio 

Your gnat’s-eye view of Mansfield, Ohio \[Aug. 6\], implies that Editor Martin Yant’s misfortunes were somehow caused by a vengeful community. Actually, his crusade against Sheriff Weikel was widely popular. His elaborate innuendoes against numerous prominent people were read with great interest at first and then with amused skepticism. A light began to dawn: In order to be St. George, Yant had to paint Mansfield as a dragon. And the phony pigment would not stick. D.K. Woodman Editor Emeritus, News Journal Mansfield, Ohio 

CH2H5OH Oops 

Even before it was considered a way to run a car, I used grain alcohol as “wonder fuel” \[Aug. 6\]. But no matter how you tank up—automotively or anatomically —the chemical formula is CH3CH2OH. 

Neither my liver nor my carburetor is familiar with CH2H5OH. 

Michael duBois Bellemead, N.J. 

Writing a Wrong 

I am grateful for Paul Gray’s generous notice of The Duke of Deception: Memories of My Father \[Aug. 13\]. I admire the excerpt attributed to my book, but it in fact belongs to The White Album by Joan Didion. 

Geoffrey Wolff Warren, Vt. 

Because of a production error, what was to have been the excerpt in the following week’s review of Didion’s book appeared in place of an excerpt from Wolff’s work.
