    General

    What is the CAPM certification and who is it for?

    Yes. Basel's pharma, biotech, finance and logistics employers run large, complex project portfolios and value candidates who can prove recognised project knowledge. CAPM helps newcomers stand out for roles such as project coordinator, administrator and analyst, and is a clear first step towards the PMP.

    Do I need project experience to take CAPM?

    No. CAPM requires no prior project work experience. You only need a secondary school qualification (or global equivalent) and 23 hours of project management education, which this training provides in full.

    You get up to three attempts within your one-year eligibility period from the date your application is approved. Re-examination fees apply to later attempts; confirm the current amounts at pmi.org.
