The APM Project Professional Qualification (PPQ) assesses capability in delivering professional projects.
This is the APM's most comprehensive assessment of professional project management capability. The qualification covers core competencies required across all areas of project management.
The APM Project Professional Qualification assessment is based on a pre-seen case study and is divided into three parts: a scenario assessment, an oral exam assessment and a written report.
