PMP® — Project Management Professional

The Project Management Professional (PMP)® is the world's most recognized certification for project managers. It validates leadership across predictive, agile, and hybrid approaches — the way projects actually run in modern organizations.

PMP is organised around three performance domains — People, Process, and Business Environment — with 35 tasks and dozens of enablers. Rather than testing memorisation, the exam poses situational scenarios: what would you do next, which stakeholder do you engage first, when do you escalate.

This guide is the free, open reference we use with our own students. Read as much or as little as you need. When you're ready to test yourself, the free 12-question diagnostic will tell you where you stand on each domain in about eight minutes.
