PMD Pro Qualifications
The Project Management in Development (PMD Pro) is a new certification which has been developed with experts from several of the world's best-known and highly regarded non-governmental organizations. These organizations are committed to improving the use of the resources entrusted to them for development, relief and conservation projects. This certification is seen as an important benchmark for continuous improvement. APMG-International is working with Project Management for NGOs (PM4NGOs), an organization dedicated to the optimization of international project investments and improvement of professional project management skills, to develop and deliver this important scheme.
The purpose of organizations in the international development sector is almost exclusively to deliver projects. Until now, project managers working for NGOs had few opportunities to acquire the same skills often required by other sectors. In addition, there are several unique factors which impact the way NGO projects are planned and implemented, and which their success is measured.
PMD Pro is a Project Management certification scheme designed for NGOs which:
- Confers a similar professional status as other world-class certifications in other sectors
- Is accessible to professionals irrespective of their geographical location
- Recognises the additional roles which project managers in the international development, relief and conservation sectors are expected to fulfill, and is relevant to the projects they manage
- Takes into consideration the financial constraints faced by those who will benefit from the product
- Certificate holders will have access to other internationally-recognised certifications and take advantage of their wide range of learning opportunities and resources, including peer-to-peer learning, webinars, etc. to support their own learning and professional development.
