CompTIA
Project+ Certification
CompTIA Project+ certification is a global credential
that validates the knowledge required to effectively
manage projects throughout the entire project life
cycle. Based on best practices of project management, as
identified by major organizations, the exam incorporates
project management concepts including important soft
skills such as conflict resolution, negotiation,
communication, team building/leadership, and setting and
mapping expectations. Individuals with 12 months
practical project management experience or those with a
strong desire to demonstrate project management
knowledge should earn the CompTIA Project+certification.
In 2003, subject matter experts from around the globe
added the latest thinking in project management to the
exam. This effort made a strong certification even
better. As a predictor of practical skills and a
valuable career credential, CompTIA Project+
certification is definitely on target.
Why
CompTIA Project+?
Industry research indicates that 74 percent of all
projects fail, come in over budget or are overdue.
Twenty-eight percent of projects fail altogether. Proper
training and certification can significantly reduce
these risks because certified professionals have the
knowledge to successfully overcome obstacles and
complete projects on time and within budget.
In addition to traditional projects, organizations
frequently engage in technology-based initiatives such
as business process improvement projects. A CompTIA
Project+ certification can be an important credential
for individuals leading projects, as it demonstrates
knowledge of critical project management and business
concepts.
TechRepublic Recommends CompTIA Project+
"An entry-level project management certification
relevant in the networking world makes for a good
investment. I strongly suggest you consider this
certification if you have project management skills,
a desire to work in that field, and no other
certification in that discipline."
