Is the CAPM certification suitable for me?

The CAPM® certification{i_location} is a great option for Junior Project Managers, or individuals looking to become a Project Management Professional. It is also an ideal gateway for those looking to attain PMP® status but do not yet have the hours of experience to undertake the PMP examination.

The prerequisites to sit the examination are a secondary diploma (A-Levels or a global equivalent) and 23 contact hours of project management training. We will help you exceed these hours through our training, giving you additional contact hours.    

From that point, you can then decide when you are ready like to undertake the 3-hour, 150 multiple-choice examination in either an online format or at a Pearson Vue testing centre.
