What if you could get an "international passport" that allows for the transportability and mutual recognition of project management qualifications no matter where in the world you work?
What if your project management certification was based on an open-source approach easily modified to fit the culture and needs of your home base, and involved the assessment of skills rather than simply certification?
Some say that’s the future of project management education, particularly in the international development arena, where more formalized methods of project management are increasingly being used to deliver goods and services more effectively and efficiently.
That’s the goal behind the Global Alliance for Project Performance Standards, a not-for-profit organization formed in response to the need for global portability of project management qualifications, certifications and development programs.
