Thank you. I did reply via the email that was sent however this did not show as a response here. so to those that are following:

"Good morning Anupam.

Are these mutually exclusive credentials or is there some duplicity with multiple credentials.

Also are you aware if the PMI have these statistics including the native language of the members?

Regards and many thanks


Carl"

Hello Carl,

These are all different credentials.

I am not aware, if these statistics includes the native language of the members.

Stéphane,

That's a tedious process :)

I got total count 26,000 for all active credentials.

Will share breakup by country, credential, status.

If I compare to number of people by country here at PM.com the difference is important, I understand that not all are certified here.

USA 488,263 vs 8,953
UK 40,923 vs 290
India 75,111 vs 2,584
Canada 65,086 vs 2,043

Just a comparison

I had a bit of time on my hands, Anupam.

Obviously, a big portion of the PMP holders (96.5%) have chosen to not participate in the Register. The question becomes whether the distribution of those in the directory is representative of all PMPs.

Only 26,000 for all active credentials? That means very few few people in the list do not have a PMP certification. It would be interesting to find out if they are CAPM working towards a PMP.

@Stéphane, do you know if PMI produces a report for those who earned CAPM and then took the PMP exam?
