    Working with the PMBOK Guide 8th Edition

    Connect every topic to the PMBOK Guide Eighth Edition and the Agile Practice Guide, the standards the CAPM exam is built on, so your knowledge reflects current PMI practice rather than dated theory.

It is designed for students, recent graduates, career changers and project team members with little or no project experience.

    Do I need work experience to take the CAPM?

    No. The CAPM requires no project management work experience. You only need a secondary degree (high school diploma or global equivalent) and 23 hours of project management education, which this training provides in full.

    Is the CAPM recognised in the UAE?

    Yes. The CAPM is a globally recognised PMI credential valued by UAE employers across construction, real estate, IT, banking, energy and the public sector, as well as in more than 200 countries worldwide.
