Project Management Certifications have achieved global acceptance in the last couple of years. A large number of organizations across the globe are hiring such candidates who are either already certified or pursuing their certifications. The popular certifications in Project Management are viz.
Other important certifications in Project management are Business Analysis Certification and Software Estimation Certification.
Skilled, certified and trained Project Management Professionals are in demand everywhere, be it in IT companies, Government sector, Construction industry, Pharmaceutical, Healthcare & Hospitality, Private or Public sectors. An industry oriented and globally accepted certification shows that a person fulfills the requirements of being a successful Project Manager. These certifications however are not only meant for Project Managers but are also beneficial for anyone who is associated with a project at any point of time. He may be the client himself or a member of the team who is dealing with the project.
Today, time has changed and Project Management has become an independent profession of its own. Gone are the days when someone was promoted to the post of Project Manager just because he or she has served a good number of loyal years in that respective organization or performed well in the last couple of projects. Now what counts is competency. Whether the person is capable enough to take charge of the project? What are the necessary qualifications to do so? Is he/ she able to efficiently make use of all his /her team members? Here, it should be noted that being a General Manager is very different from a Project Manager. A Project Manager is not only responsible for managing his/her team efficiently but also to carry out the project effectively and come out with a result within the stipulated timeframe.
