Skilled Construction Leader Shortage

With more than 3,300 construction roles open across Philadelphia, employers compete for project managers who can prove construction-specific competency, not just general project management.

PMI-CP builds stakeholder and compliance skill

Multifamily Delivery Under Cost Pressure

As multifamily construction rebounds in 2026, developers push teams to hold scope, cost and schedule, exactly the strategy and scope discipline PMI-CP is built to strengthen.

Stakeholder and Regulatory Coordination

What is the passing score for the PMI-CP exam?

PMI does not publish a fixed percentage pass mark. The result is set through psychometric analysis and reported with domain-level feedback of Above Target, Target, Below Target or Needs Improvement, so focus on broad mastery across all four domains.

What if I do not pass the PMI-CP exam the first time?

PMI allows up to three attempts within your one-year eligibility period from application approval. Our training includes practice questions and full-length mock exams to build readiness, and reexamination fees apply to later attempts.
