Introducing.... (drum roll please.....) PMI-RMP!
08/04/2010 - 1:02pm

The PMI Risk Management Professional (PMI-RMP) is one of the newer credentials offered by PMI. Based on the PMI published numbers, it looks the PMI-RMP is starting to attract some attention.

We did a check of the credential registry this morning, August 4, 2010, and found that there are now 419 PMI-RMPs.

    Some interesting facts:
  • The first PMI-RMP granted was on June 2, 2008
  • There are PMI-RMPs in 40 countries worldwide
  • The top four countries with PMI-RMPs (in order): United States (149), United Arab Emirates (37), Brazil (31), and Canada (27)
  • For the seven months of 2008, there were 64 PMI-RMPs awarded
  • For 2009, there were 179 PMI-RMPs awarded
  • For 2010, there have already been 176 awarded through July!

When people consider project management certifications, they generally think of the PMP. This is easy to understand, given that it is, by far, the most popular (and oldest) PMI credential, with over 380,000 active PMPs as of May 2010.

However, the PMP isn't necessarily the only option and sometimes may not be the best option. The CAPM (Certified Associate of Project Management), introduced in 2003, may be more appropriate for some candidates.

The CAPM has been slowly gaining recognition over the past seven years and can now be seen referenced in many job postings, etc, and there are now over 11,000 CAPMs worldwide.

Here is a comparison of the two credentials:
