What are the PMP exam domains?

The PMP exam covers three domains. In PMI's Examination Content Outline (July 2026) they are weighted People 33%, Process 41% and Business Environment 26%. People spans 8 tasks covering shared vision, conflict, team leadership, stakeholder engagement and communication. Process spans 10 tasks covering integrated planning, scope, value-based delivery, resources, procurement, finance, quality, schedule, project status and closure. Business Environment spans 8 tasks covering governance, compliance, change control, impediments, risk, continuous improvement, organisational change and external business environment changes. Business Environment rose from 8% to 26% in the 2026 update, the largest single change to the exam.

What are the eligibility requirements for the PMP exam?

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.

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.

What if I do not pass the exam 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.

Do I need prior experience to take this training?

Anyone can attend the training, and it suits professionals with some experience leading or supporting projects. To sit the PMP exam, PMI requires project leadership experience and 35 hours of commercial training (often called contact hours), which the programme provides. Beginners are supported with hands-on practice.

What topics are covered in the PMP training?

The training covers the full PMBOK Guide 8th Edition framework: project fundamentals, predictive methodologies, agile and hybrid frameworks, business analysis, stakeholder engagement, plus risk, schedule and cost control and PMP exam strategy.

Which standard and edition is the training based on?

The training is aligned to PMI's PMP Examination Content Outline and the PMBOK Guide 8th Edition, the current reference standard for the PMP exam, covering predictive, agile and hybrid delivery approaches.

Are practice tests and mock exams included?

Yes. The programme includes practice questions, full-length mock exams and topic-wise quizzes mapped to the exam content outline, so you can identify weak areas and build readiness for the scenario-based questions.

How soon can I start and how do I enrol?

Energy and Renewables Rollout

Frequent load reduction is driving solar, hydro and rural electrification projects across the country, creating demand for project leaders who can plan and control delivery under real constraints.

PMP builds planning and risk management skills

Diversification Beyond Copper

Government policy is pushing agro-processing, manufacturing and export diversification, and new programmes need project managers who can align delivery to strategic and investment goals.
