WHAT IS PROJECT MANAGEMENT?

Projects are initiated for a variety of reasons such as a new business opportunity, a technological advance, a customer need, a new regulatory standard, a legal requirement or a special interest to the sponsoring organization.

Project management refers to the principles used to create a tailored framework to successfully deliver any project, in any geographic location, from within any industry.

Project Management Professional (PMP)® are certified practitioners who are globally recognized for their expertise in the application of project management principles and processes.
