What are the best project management courses and how do I choose one?

The best project management course for your depends on what your career goals are and what your existing level of experience is within this space.

  • If you're at the start of your career journey or are looking to pivot to project management from an entirely different kind of role, you'll need to start with entry-level and fundamentals courses like the APM Project Fundamentals Qualification or the AgilePM® Foundation.
  • If you're already a project management professional looking to upskill or develop your career, you'd benefit from a more advanced course such as the PMI Project Management Professional (PMP), which requires you to have several hours of training and experience.

These are just examples of the courses you could take at different levels. Take a look at our full project management course listings below to start exploring your options.
