Project Management

PMP then IPMA (Level D)

Ahmed Sanad Project Director| Siemens Energy Dubai, United Arab Emirates

Hello All,
Hope everything is going fine with you all.
I'm a PMP Certified Engineer, and nowadays i'm enrolled in "IPMA" course to prepare and then apply for IPMA (Level D) exam, as my years of experience doesn't match with Level C requirements.
as a certified PMP, will it be easier for me to pass the IPMA test ? is it easier than PMP exam ?
and finally, how to best prepare for the test in order to pass it from the first trial.

Best Regards,
Ahmed Sanad

Hi Ahmed

Interesting to see your post since many in the PMI world claim that the PMP is even higher than IPMA Level C.

IPMA and PMI are quite different in that PMI focuses on process whereas IPMA focuses on competence - skills.

I do not have more info to help since I have not taken the IPMA certification. I will be curious to hear from you once you are done.

Many thanks Mr.Mounir for your reply.
I think that each and separate certificate gives me an experience from different exposure and move diverse thoughts, that's why i'm seeking IPMA.

Will feedback you when i get it done.
