Do I Qualify for The PMP Exam?

The Project Management Professional (PMP)® exam is not easy. It is an advanced, experience-based exam you can only take if you successfully meet all the requirements. Most candidates have trouble with the requirement that they show at least 4,500 (in some cases even 7,500) hours of leading and directing projects. Even though candidates know all their projects and how many hours they have worked on, they find it challenging to identify if their experience hours count quickly. Find out if you meet the PMP exam qualifications.

In this episode, Cornelius Fichtner helps you answer the question Do I Qualify for the PMP® Exam? by walking you through this simple, five-step process:

1. Know the definition of “Project Manager”
2. Download the PMP Handbook
3. Make a list of your projects
