Is the PMP worth it for professionals in Nairobi?

Yes. PMP is recognised by leading Kenyan and global employers across IT, banking, construction, energy and the development sector, and certified project leaders sit among the best paid. As Vision 2030 and digital projects scale, demand for credentialed managers keeps growing.

Which standard is the PMP based on?

The current PMP is aligned to the PMBOK Guide 8th Edition and PMI's PMP Examination Content Outline. The exam covers three domains: People, Process and Business Environment

What are the prerequisites for the PMP?

PMI publishes four qualifying paths and you need to meet one of them. Path A: upper-secondary or secondary school completion (EQF Level 4 / ISCED 34) plus 60 months (5 years) leading and directing projects. Path B: an associate-level, higher-certificate or advanced technical/vocational qualification (EQF Level 5 / ISCED 5) plus 48 months (4 years). Path C: a bachelor's degree, or an advanced professional qualification formally mapped to EQF Level 6 / ISCED 6, plus 36 months (3 years). Path D: a degree from a programme accredited by PMI's Global Accreditation Centre (GAC) plus 24 months (2 years). Every path also requires 35 hours of commercial training (often called contact hours) in project management, which this course provides. Your experience must be non-overlapping and accrued within the last 10 years before you apply, in a professional setting, leading and directing projects.

How long is the PMP valid and how do I renew it?

The PMP is valid for three years. To maintain it you earn 60 professional development units (PDUs) within each three-year continuing certification requirements (CCR) cycle and pay PMI's renewal fee. The requirements are set out in the PMI CCR Handbook.

Is the PMP recognised internationally?

Yes. PMP is recognised in more than 200 countries and is widely regarded as the global gold standard in project management, referenced in employer job specifications, client contracts and procurement requirements worldwide.

How much does PMP training cost in Nairobi?

Training fees vary by format, from self-paced e-learning to live instructor-led and corporate options, and are available on request. The PMI exam fee is billed separately in USD and is not part of the training fee. Request a quote for current Nairobi pricing.

What is included in the PMP course fee?

The fee typically includes PMI-aligned courseware, 35 contact hours, practice questions, mock exams, an exam simulator, downloadable templates, application guidance and learner support, plus a course completion certificate.

Is the exam fee included in the training price?

No. PMI bills the PMP exam fee separately in USD under regional pricing (for reference, USD 425 for members and USD 675 for non-members). PMI membership can reduce the exam cost. For current fees and exactly what your course includes, talk to our team at contact@invensislearning.com.

Do you offer group or corporate discounts?

Yes. We offer corporate group training with customised schedules and volume-based pricing for teams and PMOs across Nairobi and Kenya. Contact us for a tailored quote.

What payment options are available?

We accept major credit and debit cards and bank transfers, and offer instalment options on selected plans. Speak with a learning advisor to choose the option that suits you.

What is the format of the PMP exam?

The PMP is a closed-book exam of 180 questions delivered by Pearson VUE, online proctored via OnVUE or at a test centre. It uses multiple-choice, multiple-response, matching and hotspot questions based on the current PMI Examination Content Outline.

How many questions are on the PMP exam and how long is it?

The PMP exam has 180 questions with an allotted time of 240 minutes (4 hours). Of those, 170 are scored and 10 are unscored pretest questions placed at random, which do not affect your result. Two 10-minute breaks are provided: the first after the case study section, the second about midway through the independent questions. The optional tutorial and survey are not counted in the 240 minutes. The 2026 exam uses case or scenario questions and graphic-based questions, both new in 2026, alongside multiple-choice single response, multiple-response and matching questions. Enhanced matching and point-and-click (hotspot) questions are available at test centres only. You can sit the exam at a Pearson VUE test centre or online proctored.

What is the passing score for the PMP exam?

PMI does not publish a passing score or a fixed pass percentage for the PMP exam. Results are reported as pass or fail with performance feedback by domain, so aim for broad competence across all three domains rather than a target percentage.

Does the PMP exam cover agile?

Yes. The exam reflects agile and hybrid approaches. Aligned to the PMBOK Guide 8th Edition, the current exam covers agile and hybrid delivery alongside predictive methods, business analysis and stakeholder engagement.

What if I do not pass the first time?

You get up to three attempts within your one-year eligibility period. If you do not pass in three attempts, PMI requires you to wait one year from the date of your last exam before reapplying, although you may apply for another PMI certification during that year. If your eligibility period simply expires without a pass, you reapply with no waiting period. Our mock exams, scenario practice and trainer support are built to help you pass first time.

Where can I take the PMP exam in Nairobi?

You can sit the PMP at a Pearson VUE test centre or take it online from home or office via OnVUE proctoring. You schedule the exam through PMI or Pearson VUE within your one-year eligibility window.

What topics does the PMP training cover?

The training covers the three domains: People, Process and Business Environment

Do I need prior experience to take the training?

You can enrol in the training at any level, and it is structured to build your knowledge step by step. To sit the PMP exam, however, PMI requires project-leadership experience and 35 hours of commercial training (often called contact hours), which the course provides.

What learning resources are provided?

You receive PMI-aligned courseware, practice questions, full-length mock exams, an exam simulator, templates, flashcards and topic-wise quizzes to reinforce learning and build exam readiness.

Are there practice tests and mock exams?

Yes. The programme includes hundreds of practice questions and full-length mock exams that mirror the 180-question format, helping you identify weak areas and build confidence before the real exam.

Is the courseware aligned to the latest PMP syllabus?

Yes. The courseware is aligned to the PMBOK Guide 8th Edition and the current PMP Examination Content Outline, so you study the domains and approaches PMI tests today.

How soon can I start and how do I enrol?

You can enrol through the Invensis Learning website, choose your preferred format, and get immediate access to schedules, courseware and resources. New live online and classroom batches run regularly in Nairobi. Talk to a learning advisor to pick a start date.

What training formats are available?

We offer live online (virtual) instructor-led training, classroom sessions, self-paced e-learning and customised corporate group training, so you can choose the format that fits your schedule.

Can I reschedule or transfer to another batch?

Yes. Flexi options let you reschedule or transfer to another batch, and selected plans include a Flexi Pass to attend the training twice. Contact support to arrange this.

What is the refund or cancellation policy?

Refunds and cancellations are handled per our published policy, and selected plans include a money-back guarantee. Reach out to our team for the details that apply to your enrolment.

PMP builds planning and delivery discipline

Project Management Skills Gap

Sub-Saharan demand for project talent could rise up to 75% by 2035, yet certified managers remain scarce. PMP marks you out in a market deep in staff but short of credentials.

PMP makes certified managers stand out

Vision 2030 Infrastructure Scale

Roads, rail, ports and energy projects under Vision 2030 demand structured scheduling, risk and stakeholder management, the core disciplines the PMP validates.

PMP builds risk and schedule skills

Digital Transformation Pressure

Banks, telecoms and retailers across Nairobi are racing to digitise, driving demand for managers who can lead agile and hybrid technology projects to completion.

What Our Learners Say

Passed on My First Sitting

"The PMP training gave me a clear grasp of both agile and predictive delivery. The mock exams mirrored the real thing, and I passed on my first sitting. It has already helped me step into a senior project role in Nairobi."

Brian Otieno

IT Project Manager

Structured and Practical

"As a construction project lead, I finally have a structured, PMI-aligned method for scheduling, risk and stakeholder management. The trainers used real Kenyan project examples that made everything click."

Wanjiru Kamau

Construction Project Manager

The Application Support Made the Difference

"The application guidance was the most valuable part for me. Documenting my experience and contact hours felt daunting, but the support made it straightforward and I applied without stress."

Samuel Mwangi

Project Coordinator

Flexible and Worth It

"Balancing a full-time job with study was my worry, but the live online sessions and recordings fit around my schedule. I would recommend it to any working professional in Nairobi aiming for PMP."

Aisha Hassan
