While the Project Management Professional (PMP) credential is targeted at experienced project managers, the Certified Associate in Project Management (CAPM) does not require previous project management experience. The CAPM eligibility requirements are:High school diploma, associates degree, or global equivalent Plus 23 hours of formal project management education Having satisfied the eligibility requirements, a CAPM-candidate must sit a 3-hour 150 question exam. The exam tests the candidates knowledge of the Project Management Institutes (Guide to the Project Management Body of Knowledge (PMBOK Guide)). Upon successfully passing the exam, the candidate becomes a CAPM for a period of five years. The key to passing the exam is to understand the Project Management Institutes (PMI) view of project management. This means reviewing and understanding PMIs PMBOK Guide, but also becoming familiar with how PMI expects project managers to apply that knowledge. In most cases, this requires CAPM-candidates to become familiar with new concepts during their preparation, and/or to unlearn practices that they have picked up over the years. Available in-person and live online. Formats: bootcamp (1 week), 1-day-a-week (5 weeks), and 1-evening-a-week (10 weeks)
