The top project management certifications to get

The best project management courses depend on your goals, career ambitions, and level of experience — and the good news is there are clear pathways for everyone, including complete beginners.

Entry-level project management courses and certifications, such as the Certified Associate in Project Management (CAPM®), introduce the core principles of planning, managing, and delivering projects, making them ideal if you’re starting from scratch. More advanced courses focus on specialist knowledge and leadership-level skills, including widely recognised certifications such as PMP or APM.

The right course combines practical, hands-on learning with industry-recognised qualifications employers trust, helping you build job-ready skills and progress confidently into a career in project management.
