    How to Get PgMP Certified in Puerto RicoStep-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

    After panel approval you receive a one-year exam eligibility window. Book your PgMP exam through Pearson VUE , online proctored from your home or office in Puerto Rico, or at a Pearson VUE test centre. The exam is 170 scenario-based multiple-choice questions over 240 minutes.

    Step 6: Earn the PgMP Credential and Plan CCR Renewal

    On passing, PMI issues your PgMP digital badge and certificate. The credential is valid for three years; renew via PMI's Continuing Certification Requirements (CCR) programme by earning 60 PDUs across the 3-year cycle in program-relevant content.

    Frequently Asked QuestionsHere's everything you may ask...

    The PgMP (Program Management Professional) is PMI's senior credential for professionals who manage multiple related projects as one coordinated programme to deliver strategic benefits. It suits senior programme managers, PMP holders moving up, and PMO leaders. Fewer than 3,000 practitioners worldwide hold it.

    General

    What is the PgMP certification and who is it for?

    The PgMP (Program Management Professional) is PMI's senior credential for professionals who manage multiple related projects as one coordinated programme to deliver strategic benefits. It suits senior programme managers, PMP holders moving up, and PMO leaders. Fewer than 3,000 practitioners worldwide hold it.

    Is the PgMP worth it for professionals in Puerto Rico?

    Yes. PgMP validates senior programme leadership and is valued by Puerto Rico's pharmaceutical, medical device, banking and federally funded infrastructure employers. Senior programme roles on the island reach USD 157,000 and above, and certified leaders are in demand as recovery and transformation programmes scale. Talk to a learning advisor to plan your path.

    Is PMP required before PgMP?

    No. PMP is not a mandatory prerequisite. However, an active PMP certification satisfies the project management experience requirement across all three PgMP eligibility sets, so PMP holders only need to document their programme management 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 (Ways of Working, Power Skills and Business Acumen) within each three-year continuing certification requirements cycle, with at least 8 PDUs in each area.

    Is the PgMP recognised internationally?

    Yes. As a PMI credential, PgMP carries global recognition across more than 200 countries. With fewer than 3,000 holders worldwide, it is a distinctive differentiator that senior employers recognise as a benchmark for programme management excellence.

    Pricing

    What is included in the PgMP training fee?

    The training fee typically includes PMI-aligned courseware, practice questions, mock exams, exam simulator access, downloadable templates, application and panel-review support, learner support, and a course completion certificate with contact hours. The PMI exam fee is billed separately. Request a quote for current pricing.

    How much does PgMP training cost in Puerto Rico?

    Instructor-led PgMP training fees vary by format and provider and are quoted in USD. The PMI exam fee is billed separately under regional pricing. Contact us for current fees and group options, or ask about instalment plans.

    How much is the PgMP exam fee?

    For reference, PMI charges around USD 800 for members and USD 1,000 for non-members; actual fees may vary, so confirm current pricing at pmi.org. PMI individual membership (about USD 139 per year) reduces the exam fee and includes free access to The Standard for Program Management.

    Do you offer corporate or group discounts?

    Yes. We offer corporate group training with customised schedules and volume-based pricing for PMOs, delivery functions and leadership teams. Contact us for a tailored group quote for your team in Puerto Rico.

    What payment options are available?

    We accept major credit and debit cards and bank transfers, and offer instalment options on selected plans. Speak with a learning advisor to choose the option that suits you.

    Exam

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

    PMI allows up to three attempts within your one-year eligibility period. Re-examination fees apply to the second and third attempts. Our training includes mock exams, an exam simulator and trainer guidance to help you prepare thoroughly before your first attempt.

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

    The PgMP exam has 170 questions and a four-hour allotted time. It is closed book, with single-answer and multiple-answer multiple-choice questions delivered via Pearson VUE online proctoring or a test centre.

    What are the PgMP exam domains and their weights?

    Five performance domains: Strategic Program Management (11%), Program Life Cycle Management (44%), Benefits Management (11%), Stakeholder Engagement (16%) and Governance (18%), per the PgMP Examination Content Outline.

    What is the PgMP panel review?

    The panel review is a multi-rater assessment unique to PgMP. A panel of programme management practitioners evaluates your documented programme experience. It is a mandatory step in addition to the written exam, and both must be passed to earn the credential.

    What is the passing score for the PgMP exam?

    PMI uses a psychometrically determined passing score that is not published as a fixed number. Results are reported as pass or fail with domain-level feedback of Above Target, Target, Below Target or Needs Improvement, so focus on broad mastery across all five domains.

    Which standard is the PgMP exam based on?

    The exam is based on the PgMP Examination Content Outline and aligned to The Standard for Program Management, Fourth Edition, published by PMI.

    Course Content

    Can I take PgMP training without senior experience?

    You can enrol in the training at any stage, but sitting the PgMP exam requires substantial experience. PMI's three eligibility sets call for either 48 or 84 months of programme management experience depending on your education, all within the past 15 years. The training prepares you for the exam and application.

    What topics does the PgMP training cover?

    The training covers the five PgMP performance domains: Strategic Program Management, Program Life Cycle Management, Benefits Management, Stakeholder Engagement and Governance, plus application and panel-review preparation and exam strategy.

    What learning resources are provided?

    You receive PMI-aligned courseware, references to the PgMP Examination Content Outline and Handbook, an overview of The Standard for Program Management (4th edition), templates, flashcards and topic-wise quizzes.

    Are practice tests and mock exams included?

    Yes. The programme includes practice questions, full-length mock exams and an exam simulator mapped to the 170-question, four-hour format, so you can identify weak areas and build readiness.

    How many contact hours does the training provide?

    The instructor-led programme provides 24 contact hours across the five domains. PgMP has no mandatory contact-hour prerequisite, so these hours serve as exam preparation and knowledge consolidation for candidates who already meet the experience requirements.

    Enrollment

    How soon can I start and how do I enrol?

    You can enrol through the Invensis Learning website. Choose your preferred format, complete payment, and receive access to schedules, courseware and resources. See upcoming batches or talk to a learning advisor to get started.

    What training formats are available?

    We offer online (live virtual) instructor-led training, classroom training, and customised corporate group training, so you can choose the format that fits your schedule in Puerto Rico.

    What are the eligibility requirements to sit the PgMP exam?

    PMI offers three sets. Set A (secondary diploma) needs 48 months of project experience or an active PMP plus 84 months of programme experience; Sets B and C (a degree) reduce the programme requirement to 48 or 36 months. All experience must fall within the past 15 years.

    Can I reschedule or transfer my enrolment to another batch?

    Yes. Flexi options let you reschedule or transfer to another batch, and selected plans include a Flexi Pass to attend the training twice. Contact support to arrange this.

    What is the refund or cancellation policy?

    Refunds and cancellations are handled per our published policy, and selected plans include a money-back guarantee. Reach out to our team for the details that apply to your enrolment.
