Description

The Project Management Professional (PMP) certification, governed by the Project Management Institute (PMI), covers a comprehensive range of knowledge areas. These areas are essential for effective project management. As of the latest PMI standards, the key knowledge areas include:

  1. Integration Management: Overseeing project integration by consolidating various processes and activities to ensure project components are aligned and managed effectively. This includes developing project charters, project management plans, and directing and managing project work.

  2. Scope Management: Involves defining and managing what is and is not included in the project. This includes activities like planning scope management, collecting requirements, defining scope, creating a Work Breakdown Structure (WBS), validating, and controlling scope. PMP Scope Management is an essential aspect of project management that involves defining, monitoring, and controlling the scope of a project. It aims to ensure that the project stays on track and within its intended scope. The process starts with defining the project scope, which includes outlining the project objectives, deliverables, and constraints. Once the scope is defined, it needs to be monitored and controlled throughout the project's lifecycle to ensure that any changes are managed effectively. This involves communicating with stakeholders, managing change requests, and updating project documentation. Effective scope management is critical to the success of a project as it helps ensure that the project is completed on time, within budget, and to the satisfaction of all stakeholders.

  3. Schedule Management: Planning, developing, managing, executing, and controlling project schedules. It involves defining activities, sequencing them, estimating their duration, developing a schedule, and controlling it. PMP Time Management is a crucial aspect of project management that involves developing a schedule, identifying activities, and managing time effectively. This process is necessary to ensure that a project is completed on time, within budget, and meets its objectives. PMP Time Management involves several key steps, including defining the project scope, identifying all tasks and activities, sequencing tasks, estimating the duration of these tasks, and developing a schedule. It also requires monitoring progress to ensure activities are on schedule or identifying any delays and making adjustments as necessary. Effective time management can help reduce project risks, increase productivity, and improve overall project success. As such, it is essential for project managers to have a strong understanding of PMP Time Management principles and techniques.

  4. Cost Management: Involves planning and controlling the budget of a project. This includes estimating costs, determining budgets, and controlling costs. The PMP Cost Management topics are a crucial aspect of project management. It involves managing and controlling the project costs throughout the project lifecycle. The topics covered in PMP Cost Management include cost estimating, cost budgeting, and cost control. Cost estimating involves determining the approximate costs required for project completion. Cost budgeting consists in allocating the estimated cost to the various project activities. Cost control involves monitoring project expenses to ensure that they are within the budgeted amount. It is crucial to understand these topics to manage the project costs effectively and adequately. The PMP Cost Management topics also help ensure that the project budget remains under control and the project is completed within the allocated budget.

  5. Quality Management: Ensuring that the project will satisfy the stated or implied needs for which it was undertaken. This involves planning quality management, managing quality, and controlling quality.

  6. Resource Management: Identifying, acquiring, and managing the resources (like team members, equipment, materials) needed for the project. This includes planning resource management, estimating activity resources, acquiring resources, developing and managing the team, and controlling resources.

  7. Communications Management: Ensuring timely and appropriate planning, collection, creation, distribution, storage, retrieval, management, control, monitoring, and the ultimate disposition of project information.

  8. Risk Management: Identifying, analyzing, and responding to project risks. This includes planning risk management, identifying risks, performing qualitative and quantitative risk analysis, planning risk responses, and controlling risks.

  9. Procurement Management: Managing the procurement of products, services, or results from outside the project team. It includes planning procurements, conducting procurements, controlling procurements, and closing procurements.

  10. Stakeholder Management: Identifying people, groups, or organizations that could impact or be impacted by the project, analyzing stakeholder expectations and their impact on the project, and developing appropriate strategies for effectively engaging stakeholders in project decisions and execution.

Each of these knowledge areas encompasses specific processes that guide the project manager and team through the project lifecycle, from initiation to closing. Understanding and effectively applying these areas is critical to successful project management and is a key focus of the PMP certification.

A regulated qualification is delivered by a learning institution which is regulated by a government body. In England, the government body which regulates courses is Ofqual. Ofqual regulated qualifications sit on the Regulated Qualifications Framework (RQF), which can help students understand how different qualifications in different fields compare to each other. The framework also helps students to understand what qualifications they need to progress towards a higher learning goal, such as a university degree or equivalent higher education award.

An endorsed course is a skills based course which has been checked over and approved by an independent awarding body. Endorsed courses are not regulated so do not result in a qualification - however, the student can usually purchase a certificate showing the awarding body's logo if they wish. Certain awarding bodies - such as Quality Licence Scheme and TQUK - have developed endorsement schemes as a way to help students select the best skills based courses for them.
