Complexity Certification

Can project practitioners gain a competitive advantage through complexity certification?

The International Centre for Complex Project Management (ICCPM), is testing the feasibility of establishing a Competency Based Certification Scheme for Complex Project Managers (CPM). Complex projects have been characterised by many sources as ‘embodying uncertainty, ambiguity, volatility, dynamic interfaces and significant political or external influences'. Delivering successful outcomes in the presence of these characteristics provide extensive challenges to many traditional project professionals who simply do not have the skills, experience, understanding or education to successfully navigate through this challenging terrain.

This survey welcomes your input into the feasibility of developing a Certification Scheme for the Complex Project Manager.
