    How to Get PgMP Certified in New HavenStep-by-Step Certification Process

    The path to Online PgMP certification is designed for experienced program leaders managing multiple related projects aligned to strategic business objectives. The certification process includes eligibility verification, PMI application review, peer-panel assessment, and the final certification examination.

    Step 1: Confirm PgMP Eligibility

    Verify you meet one of the three eligibility sets (Set A / Set B / Set C) , secondary diploma OR bachelor's degree OR GAC-accredited bachelor's, plus 48/48/36 months of project management (or PMP) experience plus 84/48/36 months of program management experience within the past 15 years.

    Step 2: Enrol in PgMP Training

    Choose your preferred Invensis Learning PgMP cohort (3-Day Live Online Bootcamp, E-Learning, or Corporate Group Training). On enrolment you receive PMI-aligned PgMP courseware, panel-submission templates, scenario mock-exam material, and the 24 contact hours you need for your PMI application.

    Step 3: Document Program Management Experience for Panel Review

    Compile your program management experience submission to PMI's evaluation standard: programs led, components managed, governance forums chaired, benefits delivered. Invensis Learning's submission templates and reviewer feedback help you avoid the common rejection patterns PMI flags.

    Step 4: Submit the PgMP Application to PMI

    Submit your application via the PMI candidate portal. PMI performs an initial review, then forwards the experience submission to the peer panel for evaluation. The panel-review window typically runs 60-90 days. Pay the PgMP application/exam fee: ~$800 (PMI member) or ~$1,000 (non-member).

    Step 5: Sit the 170-Question PgMP Exam via Pearson VUE

    Step 6: Earn the PgMP Credential and Plan CCR Renewal

    The Skills You Will BuildAcross the Five PgMP Domains

    This PgMP training program helps senior learners build program governance knowledge, practical application skills and exam readiness across the five PgMP performance domains. By the end, you can align programs to strategy, realize benefits, and govern investment at scale.

    Strategic Program Management

    Benefits Management

    Identify, map, plan, monitor and sustain the strategic benefits a program is designed to deliver, and transition benefits to operations so value is realized and measured well after the program closes.

    Stakeholder Engagement

    Identify and analyze program stakeholders, plan and execute engagement strategies, influence senior sponsors, and manage competing interests across complex, multi-project environments.

    Program Governance

    Establish governance frameworks, program boards and decision gates, authorize and control components, manage program change and audits, and close programs with formal sign-off from leadership.

    Application and Panel Review Readiness

    Document your program management experience for the PMI application, prepare for the subject-matter-expert panel review, and practice the 170-question, four-hour exam format with mock exams and scenario questions.

    What is the PgMP certification and who is it for?

    The PgMP is PMI's senior credential for professionals who manage multiple related projects as a coordinated program to deliver strategic benefits. It is designed for senior program managers, PMO leaders, delivery directors and transformation leads with substantial program experience.

    How long is the PgMP certification valid?

    The PgMP is valid for three years. To maintain it, you earn 60 PDUs across the PMI Talent Triangle, with a minimum of 8 PDUs in each area, within each three-year continuing certification requirements (CCR) cycle.

    Is the PgMP the same as the PMP?

The PgMP is more senior, with tougher prerequisites and an added panel review, though an active PMP satisfies the project management experience requirement.

    Pricing

    How much does PgMP training cost in New Haven?

    PMI bills the PgMP exam separately in USD, with member pricing lower than non-member pricing (roughly USD 800 for members and USD 1,000 for non-members, for reference). PMI membership also lowers renewal costs. Confirm current fees on the PMI store before applying.

    Exam

    What is the format of the PgMP exam?

    The PgMP exam is a closed-book, multiple-choice examination based on the PgMP Examination Content Outline and The Standard for Program Management, Fourth Edition. It covers five performance domains and uses single-answer and multiple-answer question formats.

    How many questions are on the PgMP exam and how long is it?

    The PgMP exam has 170 questions and an allotted time of four hours (240 minutes). It is delivered online through Pearson VUE OnVUE proctoring or at a Pearson VUE test center.

    What are the PgMP exam domains and their weights?

    There are five domains: Strategic Program Management (11%), Program Life Cycle Management (44%), Benefits Management (11%), Stakeholder Engagement (16%) and Governance (18%). Program Life Cycle Management carries the most weight.

    What is the PgMP panel review?

    The panel review is a multi-rater assessment unique to the PgMP. A panel of program management practitioners evaluates your documented program experience. Both the panel review and the written exam must be passed to earn the credential.

    What happens if I do not pass the PgMP exam the first time?

    PMI allows up to three exam attempts within your one-year eligibility period. Reexamination fees apply to the second and third attempts. Our mock exams and trainer guidance are designed to help you prepare thoroughly for a first-time pass.

    Course Content

    What topics are covered in the PgMP training?

    The training covers all five PgMP domains: Strategic Program Management (11%), Program Life Cycle Management (44%), Benefits Management (11%), Stakeholder Engagement (16%) and Governance (18%), plus application, panel-review preparation and exam strategy.

    Do I need prior experience to benefit from the training?

    Anyone can attend the training, but the PgMP suits experienced practitioners. PMI requires documented program management experience under one of three eligibility sets, and an active PMP satisfies the project management experience requirement. The training helps you consolidate that experience for the exam and panel review.

    Which standard and version is the training based on?

    The courseware is aligned to The Standard for Program Management, Fourth Edition, and the current PgMP Examination Content Outline from PMI, so you study the exact framework the exam evaluates.

    Are practice tests and mock exams included?

    Yes. The program includes scenario-based practice questions, full-length mock exams and topic-wise quizzes mapped to the five domains, so you can identify weak areas and build exam readiness.

    Will I receive a certificate after the training?

    Yes. After meeting the course requirements you receive a course completion certificate along with the contact hours earned, which support your PgMP application and continuing certification.
