    General

    What is the CAPM certification and who is it for?

    CAPM (Certified Associate in Project Management) is PMI's entry-level project management credential. It suits students, graduates, career changers and project team members who want to prove their understanding of project fundamentals. No prior project management work experience is required.

    Is the CAPM certification worth it in Pretoria?

    Yes. CAPM is a recognised first credential that helps you enter project roles across Pretoria's government, IT, financial services and infrastructure employers.

    Do I need work experience to get CAPM certified?

    No. CAPM is the only PMI practitioner credential that requires no project management work experience. You need a secondary degree, such as a high school diploma or global equivalent, and 23 hours of project management education, which this training provides.

    How long is the CAPM certification valid?

    CAPM is valid for three years from the date of certification. You renew it by retaking and passing the CAPM exam within the three-year cycle. Unlike PMP, CAPM renewal does not use PDUs.

    Do you offer group or corporate discounts?

    Yes. We offer corporate group training with customised schedules and volume-based pricing for teams and graduate cohorts. Contact us for a group quote for your organisation.
