The PMI’s Certified Associate in Project Management (CAPM®), is ideal for those new to project management, or for those wishing to extend existing project skills.

Broken into four key domains, the course begins by looking at project management fundamentals, before moving to project delivery approaches. The course’s third domain focuses on agile frameworks and methodologies, and how to use the adaptive approach; before concluding with business analysis (BA) roles and responsibilities.
