    🔥 Also, do you think the PMP Certification is worth it? Join me and the others in our community, and drop a comment down below!

    The PMP certification is totally worth it! But ONLY if you pass to become a better PM and not just to have the credential. Learning the PMP principles really makes me think about how the objectives meet strategy. Also, it makes me break things completely down and define requirements and made me more agile. It has opened way more doors and got me more money.
    And as the only PMP on my informatics team, I am positioned to the project management expert and really make sure my teams projects and programs are in tact and properly defined and created.

    • @alvinthepmofficial

      Well said, and nice way of using your PMP to land more opportunities to earn even more money! Completely agree 👍

      Underrated comment - agree. I’m getting my PMP this April so I can truly improve my processes. I don’t need the cert - I’ve been a high level PM for a while now.

    I hold a Bachelor's degree in Computer Science and am currently pursuing a Master's degree in Management as well as a Master's in Data Analytics. Additionally, I am working towards obtaining PMP (Project Management Professional) and CBAP (Certified Business Analysis Professional) certifications.

    • @alvinthepmofficial

      Nice work Jeremy! Way to go with crushing it, pursuing both your Master's and your Certifications! Wishing you the best of luck, you got this!

    Great video. How do you think PMs or aspiring PM's should prepare for the increasing influence of AI tools and platforms?

    • @alvinthepmofficial
      @alvinthepmofficial  11 часов назад

      Glad you found the video helpful! I've touched on this in my other videos - AI keeps rising, but they don't have what "we" have, which is that personal and human touch that's needed to influence others, connect with others in a more personal way, and drive decisions in a strategic and relatable way. I view AI right now as a tool that helps brainstorm and refine ideas

    Hey Alvin, thanks for another great video! Quick question... has your PMP Prep Bootcamp been updated based on the latest PMP Exam/PMBOK 7?

    • @alvinthepmofficial
      @alvinthepmofficial  4 месяца назад +1

      Really glad you found the video helpful! My FREE PMP Course shows how to answer situational based questions that have been updated to the latest PMP Exam, and also covers the most important information you need to learn Agile. Check it out, and I'm sure it'll at least point you in the right direction to get started

    Alvin. I've owned my own IT and automation consulting company and have been partner in a few other GSA contracting company. Would it be worth my time to invest into a pmp certification.

    • @alvinthepmofficial
      @alvinthepmofficial  3 месяца назад +2

      As a business owner, having the PMP Certification could be a great way of demonstrating your expertise & experience from a globally recognized & accredited body (PMI) that you can showcase to future clients to gain even more work, build your reputation, and increase your revenue

    How many years do you need to work as a Project manager to be able to sit for the exam?

    • @alvinthepmofficial
      @alvinthepmofficial  4 месяца назад +2

      To sit for the PMP Exam, you need 3 years of experience managing projects, not necessarily the official Job TItle as a "Project Manager"

      @edgararturovargastorres3482 2 месяца назад +1

      Hi! How do they actually ensure that you do have the experience managing projects and not just bluffing? I mean anyone could just say to have the experience but do they actually ask for any type of proof?
      BTW I've just found your channel and I am really liking your content.

    • @alvinthepmofficial
      @alvinthepmofficial  2 месяца назад +1

      @@edgararturovargastorres3482 So glad you're finding my content helpful! PMI randomly selects people as part of the PMP Application Process for an audit, and if you do get selected, then you'll have to have your Supervisor/Point of Contact sign on your behalf that the experience you listed on your application was true & accurate
