WHY to become a PMP
« I prefer to work with People rather than machines »
I learnt Progamming language to work with machines and PMP principles to work with people.
To become a successful project management professional(I did not say Project
manager), you need to be aware of best practices and more importantly bad
practices so that you don’t fall prey to them.PMP guidelines preaches these
fundamentals.
Following are the additional points for which people become PMP.
– PMP principles and methodologies are applicable to cross domain industries.
– PMP is recognized across multiple industry verticals.
– There are less than 10 lac PMPs across the globe.
– PMP are comparatively paid higher than their non PMP counterparts (if
financial benefits interest you!)

Prometric test centers. You can apply anytime round the year, after fulfilling the
PMP exam pre-requisites.

are not considered for evaluation. These questions are part of the Research
