More about the PMP® and CAPM® Examination

PMP® and CAPM® are internationally recognized project management qualifications that are highly prized by employers and project managers. For the employer it means that a project manager with the PMP® or CAPM® qualification has demonstrated a very high level of knowledge in the techniques and theory of project management and has shown application and persistence to study and succeed.

Kennedy Ryder’s experience is that most of those who aspire to gain PMP® or CAPM® status have already undertaken sufficient hours of project management training to meet the PMI® criteria. The criterion is 35 hours of training for the PMP® exam and 23 hours for the CAPM® exam. For this reason the Kennedy Ryder PMP® & CAPM® Examination Preparation Course is 3 days (24 hours) long and concentrates on the more difficult aspects of the PMBOK®; examination technique; and answering mock examination questions. This has been found to be a very successful formula.
