    General

    Is the CAPM certification worth it in the UK?

    Yes. The CAPM is a recognised entry point into project management, valued by UK employers in IT, banking, consulting, construction and the public sector. It helps students, graduates and career changers prove foundational project knowledge and stand out for coordinator, analyst and junior project manager roles as demand for project talent grows.

    What is the CAPM certification and who is it for?

    The CAPM (Certified Associate in Project Management) is PMI's entry-level project management credential. It is designed for people with limited or no project experience, including students, recent graduates, career changers and project team members who want to demonstrate an understanding of project fundamentals.

    Do I need work experience to take the CAPM?

    No. The CAPM requires no project management work experience. You need a secondary degree, such as a high school diploma or global equivalent, plus 23 hours of project management education, which this 24-hour training programme fully provides.

    Is the CAPM recognised internationally?

    Yes. As a PMI credential, the CAPM is recognised by employers worldwide through PMI's network across more than 200 countries. It is a credible signal of foundational project knowledge in the UK and abroad, and it travels with you across sectors and regions.

    How long is the CAPM certification valid?

    The CAPM is valid for three years from the date of certification. Unlike the PMP and other PMI credentials, you renew the CAPM by retaking and passing the exam within the three-year cycle, rather than by earning PDUs.

    Pricing

    How much does CAPM training cost in the UK?

    The training fee depends on the format you choose, such as live virtual, classroom or corporate group training, and is available on request. The PMI exam fee is billed separately by PMI, so it is not part of the training price. Request a quote for current UK pricing and upcoming batches.

    What is included in the CAPM course fee?

    The fee typically includes PMI-aligned courseware, practice questions, mock exams, case studies, learner support and a course completion certificate covering the 23 hours of required project management education. Speak with a learning advisor to confirm what is included in your chosen plan.

    Is the CAPM exam fee included in the training price?

    No. PMI bills the CAPM exam fee separately. For reference, PMI lists the exam at around USD 225 for members and USD 300 for non-members, and prices may vary, so verify current fees at pmi.org before you apply.

    Do you offer group or corporate discounts?

    Yes. We offer corporate group training with tailored schedules and volume-based pricing for teams, graduate cohorts and PMOs. Contact us for a group quote built around your organisation's needs.

    What payment options are available?

    We accept major credit and debit cards and bank transfers, and instalment options are available on selected plans. Talk to a learning advisor to choose the option that suits you best.

    Exam

    What is the format of the CAPM exam?

    The CAPM exam is a closed-book, multiple-choice examination of 150 questions, delivered in three hours (180 minutes). You can sit it via Pearson VUE OnVUE online proctoring or at a Pearson VUE test centre. It is based on the CAPM Examination Content Outline effective 2023.

    What does the CAPM exam cover?

    The exam covers four content areas from the 2023 CAPM 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 Eighth Edition.

    Is there a fixed passing score for the CAPM?

    PMI does not publish a fixed percentage pass mark. Your result is set through psychometric analysis, and performance is reported across the four CAPM content areas as Above Target, Target, Below Target or Needs Improvement, so aim for broad mastery of all four.

    How many attempts do I get to pass the CAPM?

    You are allowed up to three attempts within the one-year eligibility period that begins when PMI approves your application. Re-examination fees apply to the second and third attempts; confirm current amounts on the PMI store.

    How do I schedule and book the CAPM exam?

    Once PMI approves your application, you pay the exam fee and schedule through Pearson VUE, choosing either OnVUE online proctoring or a UK test centre, within your one-year eligibility window. Our team can guide you through the application and booking steps.

    Course Content

    Can a complete beginner take this course?

    Yes. The CAPM is an entry-level credential and the training assumes no prior project experience. It builds your knowledge step by step across fundamentals, predictive delivery, agile and hybrid approaches and business analysis, with practice and trainer support throughout.

    What topics are covered in the CAPM training?

    The training follows the four CAPM content areas: project management fundamentals and core concepts, predictive plan-based methodologies, agile frameworks and methodologies, and business analysis frameworks, plus stakeholder engagement, performance measurement and exam strategy.

    Which standard and edition is the course based on?

    The course is aligned to the CAPM Examination Content Outline effective 2023 and the PMBOK Guide Eighth Edition, both published by PMI. This ensures the content matches the current exam and reflects how projects are delivered today.

    Are practice tests and mock exams included?

    Yes. The programme includes practice questions and full-length mock exams mapped to the 150-question CAPM format, along with case studies and quizzes. These help you identify weak areas and build confidence before exam day.

    Will I receive a certificate after the training?

    Yes. After you meet the course requirements you receive a course completion certificate confirming the 24 hours of project management education, which satisfies the CAPM's 23-hour education prerequisite.
