### 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.

The figurative puff of smoke announcing China’s change of leadership has, at last, risen from the chimney of the Great Hall of the People. But the transition, however smooth, throws up more questions than it answers. The direction in which the so-called fourth generation headed by Hu Jintao takes the country still remains uncertain. That will depend on what sort of relationship the new leaders have with the more elderly third-generation who have now largely lost their official titles, if not their actual power, and on whether Jiang Zemin will be willing to give up the post of chairman of the Central Military Commission this spring and quietly recede into the political background. In China, age counts for a lot, and it’s worth remembering that during none of its communist, nationalist and imperial periods has this country been noted for leaders who willingly gave up power before their deaths. 

 Many Western observers take heart that succession in the Chinese Communist Party is now institutionalized. But that is not necessarily a positive phenomenon, since it begs two often ignored questions. First, can the Leninist system and the Marxist/Maoist ideology on which the Party is still based be reformed? Second, should this system, built on one exported from the Soviet Union to China during the 1950s, be reinforced through such seemingly orderly changes of leadership? Or, to put it more bluntly, is China in need of regime change?

 We liberals eternally hope that democracy can work its magic on even the most intractable of nationswith the possible exception of Iraq, North Korea and Cuba. After all, we are a people who believe in the notion of progress, preferably peaceful progress. We hold up the likes of South Korea and Taiwan, once run by robust authoritarian governments, as examples of what the Chinese Communist Party not so many years ago disparaged as “peaceful evolution.” And although China’s leaders seem a little less resistant of late toward that notion, they have still not explicitly embraced it. 

 What’s been encouraging about China is that Jiang has presided over 13 years of astounding growth and impressive change and done so with a minimum of intra-Party warfare. What’s less encouraging is that so many in the leadership, especially Hu, have long been forced to mute themselves politically, and to adopt a kind of identity-less political persona. True, after Mao, China craved less vision and theory and more practice. But one wonders if the new Party bosses have not been so defoliated by the confines in which they have been forced to operate that they have lost the genetic coding for clear, creative thinking and bold leadership. If China is not only to survive but to continue reinventing itself, it will need the kind of spirited political thinking and discussion that is the only path to a new model of what it wishes to become. In the best of circumstances, where a more open society, free press, well-educated public and a good system of communications prevail, this is already a daunting task. How much more so in a society that has been so long dedicated to stifling its press, limiting its political dialogue, trammeling its NGOs and citizen watchdog groups and warding off contagious foreign ideas. 

 It’s all well and good for leaders to proclaim that they believe in reform and change. But it’s a far more complex challenge to delineate what they would like their country and people to become. For China, the future lies beyond a very murky political horizon that no leader has yet dared to divine. Over the past 15 years China has evinced enormous economic energy and social resilience. It has shown it can produce a curiously vibrant form of market Leninism. But what of politics, religion, culture, values, family? Up until now, China has not found in its lexicon of reform language for these essential building blocks of society. Jiang and the government he has led have been a walking contradictiontrapped in the host of an old-style Stalinist communist party, bequeathed a Marxist ideology rouged up with Chinese characteristics, confined by the baggage of being a people’s republic adorned with such retro images as the portrait of Mao in Tiananmen Square. In Chinese parlance this is known as a _sibuxiang_, or the “four not-alikes”an animal said to be unique to China during the dynastic period which had the antlers of a deer, the tail of a donkey, the neck of a camel and the hooves of a cow. 

 So as we watch China’s newly-anointed leaders trooping out of the Great Hall of the People, we are left with some searching questions about the strange hybrid the Party has become. Will this enigmatic leadership know how to govern China during the next stage of what we can only hope will be another episode of peaceful evolution, because that is the most hopeful scenario for China and the world? Will they have the cohesiveness to do so without factional struggle? And will they manage to be the historical exception and break the gravitational pull of lurking elders who only grudgingly passed them the baton to begin with?
