I have recently finished my first major project as a PM, migrating our accounting software. I was interested in PMP certification since I took a PM class during my MBA, but it always seemed like a far fetch to me. Now I feel like I want to steer my career in this direction, but not sure what the next step should be. This 3 month project was my first real PM experience.
To all experienced PMs out there: Should I go for a PMI certification, or should I wait until I gain more experience?
