PMP Certification Requirements, Part II

Welcome Back to PMP Strategies, few days ago I posted the requirements for the PMP certification. You may ask yourself ... Can I provide hours of experience in which my title or designation was not necessary "Project Manager"? Yes, for Instance if you where responsible for any of the of the Project Management Processes such as Initiation, Planning, Execution , Monitor & Controlling or Closing a project your experience will be recognized by the PMI.

Also consider that your participation may include experience outside of the corporate environment such as volunteer projects.

If you are interested in volunteer professional activities consider Joining your PMI local chapter.
Realize that you can have the chance of gaining experience in a relatively safe (minimal risk) environment. Additionally you can add a Key element on your professional career and that is "Networking". Networking with Project Management professionals will be my next subject on this blog. Stay tuned.
