The attainment of accreditations offered by professional bodies such as the Association for Project Management (APM) is increasingly seen as a recognised indicator of competence in project management.
This course provides delegates with comprehensive training to prepare them for the APM Professional (APMP) examination (based on the APM Body of Knowledge, 5th Edition).
