About the CAPM Certification

Regardless of your career stage, the Certified Associate in Project Management (CAPM)^® is an asset that will distinguish you in the job market and enhance your credibility and effectiveness working on — or with — project teams.

Organizations with standardized practices attain better results, as shown in our 2015 Pulse of the Profession^® report. Because the CAPM^® recognizes your knowledge of the profession’s preeminent global standard, you’ll stand out to employers and be poised to move ahead.

Project management is a rapidly growing profession. Research indicates that employers will need to fill nearly 2.2 million new project-oriented roles each year through 2027. With the CAPM, you’ll be on the fast track to opportunity.

PMI has released a new CAPM exam content outline. The exam, however, will be updated starting October 2022. The exam is changing to ensure it reflects market expectations of entry- and associate-level professionals. Extensive market research validated that today’s project team members work in a variety of environments and utilize different approaches. The new exam will test skills necessary to understand project management fundamentals as well as predictive, adaptive and business analysis principles.
