Question: I’m already PMP® certified. Should I consider pursuing the PMI-PMOCP™ certification?

Description: In this insightful episode, Kim Marcelliano answers a question many PMP® holders are asking: is the PMI-PMOCP™ credential the right next step? Kim explains how the PMP® focuses on managing individual projects, while PMI-PMOCP™ equips professionals to lead and influence the PMO at a strategic level. As organizations increasingly rely on PMOs to drive value and transformation, project managers are being called upon to contribute beyond task execution. For PMP® certified professionals ready to expand their influence and visibility within their organizations, PMI-PMOCP™ offers a complementary pathway to demonstrate leadership in driving enterprise-wide project success. 🎯 Key Takeaways:

  • PMP and PMI-PMOCP serve distinct but complementary roles
  • PMOCP is ideal for those involved in PMO leadership or aspiring to it
  • PMP® is about managing projects; PMOCP is about elevating PMO strategy
  • Certification validates your ability to align projects with organizational value
  • PMOCP helps PMP® holders transition from project delivery to strategic impact
