    What You Will Gain from CAPM TrainingSkills Built Around the Four Exam Domains

    This CAPM course builds the fundamentals, predictive and agile skills, and business analysis knowledge the credential validates. By the end you can support projects with PMI-aligned practices and are ready for the CAPM exam.

    Project Management Fundamentals

    In CAPM training you will learn the core concepts of project management: project life cycles, roles, the project charter and PMI's guiding principles from the PMBOK Guide 8th Edition. This foundation carries the largest share, about 36%, of the current exam.

    Predictive Plan-Based Methodologies

    Plan and control projects the traditional way: scope, schedule, cost, quality, risk and procurement, plus tools such as the work breakdown structure, critical path method and earned value management.

    Agile Frameworks and Methodologies

    Apply agile thinking with Scrum, Kanban, Lean and XP. You will work with backlogs, user stories, sprints and retrospectives, and learn when hybrid delivery is the right fit for a project.

    Business Analysis Frameworks

    Connect business analysis to project delivery: needs assessment, requirements elicitation and traceability, and solution evaluation, a substantial part of the 2023 CAPM exam.

    Exam Readiness and Practice

    Prepare for the 150-question, three-hour CAPM exam delivered through Pearson VUE. Practice questions, mock exams and domain-wise quizzes build the recall and timing you need to pass.

    Applying PM Tools at Work

    Turn knowledge into workplace capability: stakeholder engagement, performance measurement, dashboards and reporting you can use right away in a coordinator or junior project role.
