Project+

---

How about adding the Project+ in as well?

As a Senior Engineer I often have to lead and/or plan projects even though I am not a Project Manager. There is no way I have enough experience for the PMP and I don't generally need that in depth level of knowledge. I think the Project+ would be the proper "middleweight" project manager cert for my situation. Rarely do I work in organizations that have MS Project though so the MS Project course is not directly relevant. Usually we are using other tools such as ConnectWise or (gasp/choke/sputter) MS Excel.

I am not overly familiar with PM cert's though so maybe there is a better one?

Thanks.

I just took Project+ (and passed). I kinda see it as PMP without all the obscure trivia. I've begun watching the PMP series and think it would also be a good intro as is. I'm hoping to do PMP in December.

@bob-clingan,

Awesome news and good job!

Remember that the PMP exam is updating in January 2016. The exam objectives have not changed much. If you're preparing for the current iteration, you'll do fine for either!
