Success! I am officially a Certified Project Manager …

I have recently taken the course of Certified Project Management from IAPPM (International Association for Project & Program Management) in coordination with Modern Managers Chapter.

 

This was a very extensive course and the amount of information and skills that I gained are valuable and very useful.

What is great about this particular course is that it is very comprehensive and on a senior level of management.

I had to take a test to be certified and I am telling you; it was not easy. I had to sit there for three hours to answer the questions. The test consists of (88) questions and the trainee must get 75% of the test right in order to pass, i.e. (66) questions and I did it; I passed and am now officially a Certified Project Manager, which means; I can add the acronym to my name wherever I go, ehm ehm.

So I am now; Khalidah El Mufleh, CPM

You can check my name here along with the other successful CPM's.

Mabrook ! Good job.

I have a question, I'm persuing the same line of career path as yours I guess (management).
I'm about to go for my MBA , do you think the CPM would be an add on to my masters and do you advice me to go for it as well? I have never heard about it till I read your blog.

Thanks,

Khaled

Wedad, thank you for the wish ..

Richard, welcome to my blog my dear and thank you so much for the warm wish; this means so much to me ..

Samer, Finally you comment on my blog ... Thank you and yes, I owe it to you for pushing me to do this .. you do get the credit :D

Rasha habibty, thank you so much and wish you the same

Salam, thank you and yes it needed a lot of focus, attention and studying but it is all worth it, i learned a lot ..

Ramroom, thank you sweets, when I come to Dubai inshallah, you will get a7san 7alwan :D

Roba, thank you ..

Abeer, thank you dear and it is not a surprise that your management teacher keeps bringing it up, it is a wonderful course, what is his name by the way?

bilotee, thank you ..

Ohoud, thank you and yes it does feel very nice

Bashar, thank you and I got your email, I will send you the details shortly ..

Palforce, thank you .. yes I recommend it .. it is a very good advantage if you want to pursue a career in management .. there are two major certificates in the world in this respect; PMP (Project Management Professional) and it is provided by PMI (Project Management Institute) and the CPM (Certified Project Manager) and it is provided by IAPPM (International Association for Project & Program MAnagement) .. they are both globally recognized and both are good certificates; however; the CPM is more comprehensive and covers more management areas than the PMP .. once you attain the CPM, you can add the acronym to your title and business cards and it will be acknowledged wherever you go ..
You can read more about it in their website ..

Jad, T H A N K Y O Y :D
