Currently have a PMP, don’t feel like I need it and haven’t logged any training towards keeping it active over the last few years. Expires in 60 days. Should I stretch to get it renewed or let it die? Not sure it every really helped me anyway.

I let mine die. No regrets

It was worth getting it. The question is, for how many years is it worth renewing it? Once I was sure I wasn’t going to bounce for an industry project manager job, I let lapse (probably as a SM). For many clients and that type of job, it’s a tablestakes cert to interview since they don’t have training of their own to send people through.

It’s useful in federal. It’s required by some clients to be placed as a manager

I’m not sure I’d look at your resume any different with it. In fact, I’d be afraid that you’d overcomplicate things with GANTT charts, status reports, risk assessments, etc. and you’d have you prove to me that you don’t just follow a methodology, you follow your brain.

Okay sure, GANTT is overall, duh. And you’re obviously providing individual status’ to compile the overall project status.

I’m looking into PMP currently...is it not worth it?

Only value is in adding an “I”

At Deloitte it meets the cert req for M. In Cyber, it’s either the CISSP or the PMP.

You can do run the free videos on their website in the background and get your PDUs. Might as well do it and keep the certification.

PMP is massively inflated and over saturated. It’s dying and for good reason.

i think ACN will cover the renewal fee

PhD or PMP?

Just realized you can claim books you’ve read for PDUs as we’ll. May not be too challenging to get re-certified haha.
