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.

Scrum, AgilePM, and change management courses and certifications explained
When exploring project management, you’ll often hear about Scrum, AgilePM, and change management. While they all fall under the wider umbrella of project delivery, each focuses on a slightly different skill set — and the right certification depends on where you’d like your career to grow.
AgilePM
- A broad project management methodology based on the Agile principles of adaptability, collaboration, and incremental progress to deliver projects on budget and to deadline.
- Suitable across industries — not just tech — and often valued in digital transformation projects.
- Popular certifications: AgilePM Foundation & AgilePM Practitioner.
Scrum
- A framework within agile project management, widely used in tech, product development, and IT.
- Focuses on iterative delivery, teamwork, and defined roles such as Scrum Master or Product Owner.
- Popular certification: ABC Scrum Master
Change Management
- Centres on the people side of projects — how to manage transitions in a business, minimise resistance, and ensure teams adopt new systems or processes.
- In demand in organisations undergoing large-scale restructuring, system upgrades, or cultural shifts.
- Popular certification: APMG Change Management Foundation or Change Management Practitioner
Should you choose a Scrum, AgilePM, or Change Management course?
- If you’re aiming for flexibility across multiple industries: AgilePM is ideal.
-
If you want to work closely with development teams: start with ABC Scrum Master.
-
If you’re drawn to stakeholder engagement and people-focused roles: consider Change Management certifications.
