PMP Application Does Not Check For Project Success - WHY?

Knowledge Management Lessons Learned Quality Using PMI Standards

That PMP application process does not check if your project was successful. The major parts are; 4500/7500 hours of experience and 35 contact hours of training. This experience may have been gotten from poorly managed / failed project but there is no process to verify that.

**The Application Audit is a random process and does not check if best practices were observed in your recorded project.

What do you think?

A PMP certification does not indicate you are a great project manager but rather understanding and can apply best practices and concepts (and the standard) of project management.

Yes, it has its merits but should not be seen as an indicative of a great project manager - experience will get you that.
