Choose the PMI certification that fits your work
Compare project, program, portfolio, agile and specialist credentials before you commit to a course or exam fee. Learn what ITCertPath actually offers, what PMI controls, and where to check current eligibility.
ITCertPath is independent of PMI and is not claiming PMI Authorized Training Partner status. PMI alone decides eligibility, exam access, fees, audits and certification. A course listing does not confirm a scheduled batch, qualifying training hours or a bundled exam attempt.

A CLEARER PATH TO YOUR EXAM
Learn, practise and register through the right owner
Check eligibility with PMI
Review the current credential page, experience route, education and required learning before selecting a course.
Choose preparation deliberately
PMP training and four other PMI course listings exist here. Ask for the actual trainer, format, dates, fee and written training-hour evidence before enrolling.
Use timed concept review
Read PMP course material, then try the first PMP review. Its 180 items revisit underlying decisions; this is not full-length exam-equivalent practice.
Pay and schedule with PMI
PMI's handbook describes approval, payment to PMI, an eligibility ID and scheduling. Read our registration guide and confirm your country-specific checkout.

Application and booking
Use the official PMI account for the credential you choose. Confirm the exam, delivery location or online option, eligibility window, membership status, currency and taxes shown for your country before paying. ITCertPath can explain the steps but cannot approve an application or issue a PMI credential.
Read PMI's certification handbook ↗Important PMP training change
For PMP training completed from 1 December 2026, PMI applies new rules to live instructor-led training hours. ITCertPath does not claim its live classes automatically qualify. Ask for the actual delivery provider and confirm your route with PMI; on-demand learning and earlier completed training follow different rules.

PMI certification and booking FAQs
Should I start with CAPM or PMP?
CAPM is a foundation route that does not require prior project experience; PMP is for people who can document qualifying project-leadership experience and training. Check the current requirements on PMI's individual credential pages before applying.
Does ITCertPath issue PMI certifications or sell every PMI exam voucher?
No. PMI controls eligibility, exams, fees and credentials. ITCertPath is an independent preparation provider and does not claim PMI Authorized Training Partner status or voucher inventory. Follow the official PMI application and payment route for your credential.
Can any live PMP training count toward the required 35 hours?
Not automatically. PMI says that from 1 December 2026, qualifying live instructor-led training must come from a PMI Authorized Training Partner, China Registered Education Provider or eligible accredited academic program. PMI has different rules for on-demand learning and training completed before that date. Confirm the actual provider and completion evidence before paying.
Are PMI-CPMAI and APL ordinary exam-voucher routes?
Do not assume so. PMI currently presents PMI-CPMAI as an exam-prep course and certification bundle. APL uses an accredited organisational pathway. Check each official PMI page rather than purchasing a generic voucher advertised for another certification.
