One of the hurdles many new project managers face is whether or not to get an industry certification. There are certifications that, while not exclusive to IT, provide validation of project management skills. And professionals with project management certifications are in high demand in the IT industry.

The Project Management Professional (PMP) is one of the more difficult project management exams, however, it is also one of the most worthwhile and lucrative certifications that IT pros looking to advance their careers can obtain.

If you don't think you're ready for the PMP, the Certified Associate in Project Management (CAPM) is a great place to start. The CAPM is an industry-standard certification for anyone whose job includes:
Planning
Scoping
Maintaining
Administering
a project's life cycle.

CBT Nuggets trainer Simona Millham covers each chapter of the Project Management Body of Knowledge (PMBOK). After this training, you'll be up to speed on the Project Management Institute (PMI) standards - and ready to certify as a project manager, a certification that translates more readily than experience and good judgement.
