Talk:Project Management Professional

message: The notability of this credential was questioned by User:Ukexpat but no comments were added to the talk page. There are 5 times as many people with PMP certification as CISSP certification and there is no notability tag there. There should be objective criteria for notability for credentials/certification of this kind. I don't know if either is sufficiently notable but the objective standard of number of credential-holders suggests PMP is more notable than CISSP. Other credentials like Accredited Symbian Developer, Certified Novell Engineer and Certified Wireless Security Professional also lack notability tags and don't include numbers so that makes it hard to develop objective criteria.   —Preceding unsigned comment added by 67.136.209.98 (talk) 19:24, 10 May 2011 (UTC)
replies: text: Over 1 million people currently have this certification.  The job site Dice lists the PMP as one of the top 12 certifications for a management postition.  (From the graph, it was the top of the 12, although Dice focuses on IT positions, so it may not be the top certification for other industries.)  The notability tag has been on this article for about 8 months.  I think it could be removed. (Disclaimer:  I have the PMP certification, so I'm not completely unbiased.) -RobinLampert (talk) 01:15, 2 June 2021 (UTC)

thread_title:  Sucess Rates 

message: I thought this was an OK overview, but there what is CCR in this context, what is the percent success rate, what kind of PDUs are used, etc. etc. ADStark (talk) 15:44, 30 June 2008 (UTC)
thread_title:  Terminology Poorly Explained 

message: HI--In the overview section it states that PMI has only 3 levels of certification. They added two more this year. I would like to add those two certificaitons if there are not any objections.  Makingprogress19 (talk) 00:50, 24 July 2008 (UTC)
thread_title:  Overview change suggestions 

message: The page talks a lot about PMP credentialing, but I think it could / should focus more on the methodology itself.  For example, how does PMP tie in with SDLC, waterfall, agile, etc.  It would be nice to have a section on methodology, a separate section on PMP credentialing, and perhaps a separate section on the PMP exam.  I think this would meet the needs of a wider audience.  —Preceding unsigned comment added by 199.102.9.66 (talk) 22:48, 23 July 2009 (UTC)
thread_title:  PMP -- Purpose, Advantages, Methodology 

message: On 29 October I modified the article to reflect the changes to the exam (domains, percentages, ...).
These changes were reverted, and so the article as it is now is not reflecting the current situation.  — Preceding unsigned comment added by Koornti (talk • contribs) 09:53, 5 November 2011 (UTC)

message: The Institute is a not-for-profit but it very clearly charges for membership, testing and certification and renewal.  The Institute has remunerated staff and consultants. Using Wikipedia to promote this, as this article clearly does, is a red flag and there for not to be accepted as credible source. 
As they say, "I love Wikipedia, It lets you make things up" There is no way that this article can arguably be considered informative when it is so blatantly promotional. Malangthon (talk) 20:47, 9 January 2012 (UTC)

message: The article should be changed to focus on the PMP credential.  The exam is only part of the requirements to get the PMP certification.  And the PMP is a certification that must be maintained with on-going education.  It's reasonable to cover the exam, but it shouldn't be the primary topic of the article. -RobinLampert (talk) 01:15, 2 June 2021 (UTC)
thread_title: Focus on Credential, Not Exam

message: This is THE flagship certification of Project Management for almost 40years. More known than Prince2 & other governmental standards. Almost a million people certified and often pop ups directly quoted in Job Ads. Also has Wiki Articles in 12 other languages. I‘d recommend to remove the tag, it‘s not fitting. 185.11.19.132 (talk) 10:44, 17 October 2022 (UTC)
