Course Overview:

This CMI Diploma in Project Management is designed for newcomers to project management and is also suited to experienced project managers who wish to gain a global PM industry qualification. CMI has teamed up with the leading project management educational award body, PMI – Project Management Institute to offer you a 14 week intensive course. PMI certification implies that your project management practices are current and aligned to best practices of the project management industry. Many employers now require that project managers have PMI certification. If you don’t have it, you are running the risk of being left behind.
 

The CMI Diploma in Project Management covers preparation for the Project Management Institute (PMI®) Project Management Professional PMP® and or CAPM® Certified Associate Project Management tests. Applicants who wish to apply for the Project Management Professional (PMP®) must have more than 3 years PM experience. If you don’t have 3 years PM experience and are a newcomer, you will be eligible to apply for the CAPM® Certified Associate Project Management test.
 

The Project Management PMI course provides instant credibility in terms of your project management skills, including your understanding of and competence in the PMI Project Management Body of Knowledge (PMBOK™) framework. Areas covered include the planning process, techniques for estimating durations and project schedules, allocation of resources, cost management & control, risk and response strategies.
 

To enhance the practical aspect of the course, you will have the option to apply real PMI project management tools to a project and a test which will lead to a FETAC level 6 component award in Project Management and a CMI Diploma in Project Management.
This course is aligned to the PMBOK™ methodology and involves completing a range of tests covering each of the core PMBOK areas. Students who have completed the course will be ready to sit either the PMP® or CAPM® test. After successful completion of a final end of course PMI test, students will receive a PMP or CAPM industry award directly from the PMI (USA).
