What’s the video about?
The video explains what you need to know before spending your money on a PMP®, PRINCE2® or any other Project Management certificate course. Working from the Project Manager Competency Development Framework of the PMI®, Tania Melnyczuk highlights what’s important for studying to become a competent project manager.
What’s the gist of the video?
Regular Project Management certification courses are aimed at providing the Project Management knowledge needed to pass standards-based exams.
These courses are not designed to produce competent project managers.
The typical study methods also do not actually develop knowledge as defined here.
If you want your certificate training to help you do your actual work, you need a different approach to studying Project Management.
