    What does the CAPM exam cover?

    The CAPM exam covers four domains from the 2023 Examination Content Outline: Project Management Fundamentals and Core Concepts (36%), Predictive Plan-Based Methodologies (17%), Agile Frameworks and Methodologies (20%), and Business Analysis Frameworks (27%). It is aligned to the PMBOK Guide 8th Edition and the Agile Practice Guide.

    Is there a fixed passing score for the CAPM exam?

    PMI does not publish a fixed percentage pass mark. The result is determined through psychometric analysis, with domain-level feedback, so aim for broad mastery across all four CAPM domains rather than a single target score.

    Where can I take the CAPM exam in Raleigh?

    You can take the CAPM exam online via Pearson VUE's OnVUE proctoring from home or office, or at a Pearson VUE test center. Scheduling is done through the Pearson VUE website or PMI's portal within your one-year eligibility period.

    You are allowed up to three attempts within the one-year eligibility window from application approval. A re-examination fee applies to the second and third attempts. Our practice questions and mock exams are built to help you pass on your first try.

The course builds practical skills in planning, execution, stakeholder engagement, and reporting using the PMBOK Guide 8th Edition.

    Can a beginner with no experience take this course?

    Yes. CAPM is designed for beginners, and this course assumes no prior project management experience. The instructor builds concepts step by step, and the 24 hours of training satisfy the education requirement you need to sit the exam.

    Are practice tests and mock exams included?

    Yes. The program includes practice questions and full-length mock exams mapped to the 150-question, 3-hour CAPM exam format, plus case studies, so you can identify weak areas and build exam readiness.
