The PMP Certification is recognized the world over as the gold standard in project management. As a PMP, you can work in virtually any industry, with any methodology and in any location. The PMP signifies you speak and understand the global language of project management and connects you to a community of professionals, organizations and experts worldwide. The PMP can also provide a significant advantage when it comes to salary and earning potential. Among survey respondents to PMI’s Earning Power Salary Survey, those with a PMP certification garner a higher salary (20% higher on average) than those without a PMP certification. (PMI.org, 2019) Employers benefit as well. When more than one-third of their project managers are PMP-certified, organizations complete more of their projects on time, on budget and meeting original goals.
