The purpose of obtaining professional project qualifications was to create a common language for project management among managers worldwide. Thus, if you move abroad for work or employment, the common language of project management will help you use the same terminology and do not have to change your literature.
People knowledgeable about project planning and control can work in any industry or field related to project control. In general, industrial engineers are the ones who carry out project planning and control work. These engineers can work in any industry, such as manufacturing, textiles, automobiles, etc. However, people with other degrees can enter this field by taking training courses and acquiring the appropriate knowledge.
As of 2020, about 2,072 people worldwide have a PMI-SP certification, among whom 13 are Iranians.
This course emphasizes the development of project knowledge, planning, and control skills through the use of the following materials:
