Trainer: Ashley Hunt Total Videos: 32 Project Management Professional (PMP) Certification TrainingProject Managers are in high demand world-wide, and the need for skilled, certified people is going to increase over the next 3-5 years. Project management is a critical skill that crosses industries, whether you are in construction, medical, software development, information technology or any of the hundreds of other industries that need skilled project managers. If you are an information technology professional or work in a technology field, you are constantly involved in projects large and small. Having the ability to manage projects and understand the processes involved is a skillset that will separate you from the pack. Being certified as a Project Management Professional proves you have the skills and experience necessary to get the job done. According to the Project Management Institute (PMI), as the number of projects swell, the pool of credentialed talent is not keeping pace. In the Persian Gulf and China Sea regions alone — where entire cities are being built, seemingly overnight — a shortage of 6 million skilled project professionals is expected by 2013. Add to that the fact that, of the 20 million people participating in projects worldwide, just one million have professionally recognized formal training on how to best execute those projects. One thing becomes clear: The demand for skilled project managers is at a critically urgent level.
