A trying to find a project management certification course that can fit around your own life/work needs? You have three main options to choose from, each of which have their advantages and disadvantages.

Probably the best option is to attend university. College courses can be highly personalized and some even focus on specific industries. A college program in project management actually lead on to business management degrees too. You have the benefit of choosing local universities also as many courses are wrong by even general universities. These programs provide you with a more rounded education as you have the opportunity to network more closely with students and tutors on a regular basis.

By contrast, you might consider attending the Project Management Institute (PMI). Their programs provide you with a more industry neutral project management certification which can be applied to IT, construction, pharmaceutical, etc. PMI centers are located in many of the larger cities throughout the country and the costs of attending often prove to be a lot cheaper than attending university. Some training centers also provide part-time courses where you can attend lectures in the evenings or weekends. The great thing about PMI certification is the fact that it is world-renowned so your certification with actually travel quite well if you’re interested in working and traveling abroad.

Your final section would be to go for an online project management certification. Many people are put off by the prospect of courses being provided by scam universities. For this reason it is essential to research the training center/university thoroughly before signing up. The cost of the program actually works out cheaper than attending university in person. Project management programs are actually quite well suited to being studied online we do however lose out on being able to communicate and interact with fellow students (which can provide great networking opportunities).
