Benefits of PMI-ACP Certification
Becoming certified as a PMI Agile Certified Practitioner (ACP) is incredibly beneficial
to your career in the field of agile project management. It will open your professional
world to more project development methodologies, more collaborations, and, of course,
more business opportunities.
Let's take a look at three of the primary benefits
you can look forward to as a PMI-ACP certified project professional:*
- Those who pass the PMI-ACP exam and become certified will be able to demonstrate
their level of professionalism and knowledge of Agile tools and practices to present
and potential employers. This gives certified professionals a leg up over the non-certified
competition.
- Becoming PMI-ACP certified increases your versatility in Agile techniques,
and it displays to your circle of professionals that you are well-equipped with
Agile tools and knowledge, as opposed to the project managers who are only just
familiar with Agile practices.
- Being an Agile Certified Practitioner also means that you have earned
a certification that displays your professional caliber as far beyond that of an
entry-level project manager.
While there are entry-level or Agile training credits available for those who seek
them, the PMI-ACP certification proves that you have the necessary experience, ultimate
knowledge, and professional wherewithal to take on a project in any Agile environment.
