What is your highest completed education?
PMI accepts three education paths for PMP eligibility. Pick yours.
How many months of project management experience do you have?
Count only time spent leading or directing projects. This includes managing scope, schedule, budget, resources, or stakeholders on defined project work.

"Contact hours" means live instructor-led training from a PMI-authorised provider. If you enrol with us, you receive these 35 hours as part of the course.
