Which is the best project management qualification: PMP or APMP or PRINCE2?

We Answered:

My hubby is in the middle of re-training and thought for a while about going into project management.
By far and away the best qualification is the PRINCE2. It is the best known and is the most often asked for.
Try looking for jobs adverts that you are interested in and see which qualification they ask for. That will give you the best indication of which qualification is most highly-valued in your preferred area of the industry.

MSc in Project Management or qualifications such as PRINCE2/APM?

We Answered:

PRINCE2 is really the standard project management methodology about. It is as dry as dust (in my humble opinion - you won't get any laughts or light relief on a course about it) and using it at work is possibly the most boring thing in the world but... if you follow the principles you can't fail! Anyhow, let's not confuse opinion with facts...

Facts. Your employer (or an employer) might fund you for a PRINCE2 course - check your Learning and Development Department if your organisation has one.

Alternatively you might be able to go to a commercial training firm - an example:

Learning Tree International

If you're paying for it yourself perhaps think about having to spend a grand or two and give up a week of your life - but I don't know for sure. Like any work-based training, make sure you can practice and apply what you've learnt at work or you'll probably forget it and it'll have been a waste of time and money.

Wanting to get into IT project management, Which is the best project management qualification: PMP or Prince2?

We Answered:

For the UK, definitely PRINCE2. PMP is an American qualification which (although recognised) has never been in as high demand in the UK as PRINCE2.

If you want to work in the USA then go for PMP, no-one's ever heard of PRINCE2 over there!
