Connections…probably not, unless you’re really pushing the social aspect. If anything, it will help HR filters pass your resume along in larger organizations. Where it gets dicey, in my opinion, is the belief that having the certification or education replaces PM job experience - which is likely what a hiring manager is going to look prioritize. When you’re making a career change, I believe it adds credibility that you understand project management on a formal level. Job title suggestions assuming I begin searching with the above qualifications and career goals?Īny advice is greatly appreciated, thanks for reading! Any suggestions as to how I can narrow my goals? My core interest is business management and I like the idea of bringing a technical accounting background as well as project management skills into that. My final question: what types of project management would I be qualified for with a CAPM, CPA, and tax/audit background? I very much want to get out of tax/audit and more into project/program/business management. Or is it better to stick to cheap course preparation and just get the CAPM certification? Is something like this worthwhile? Does it add to your resume? Could it be worthwhile for connections? From what I can tell, it is not just a list of coursework and reading - it includes professor lectures. I saw Purdue has a program that is 8 weeks and costs $2,000. Is it worth doing a program through a university prior to taking the CAPM? I come from long lived people who all worked happily into their 70'sĭoes the hive mind think I have enough under my belt the PMP is worth going for?
