It’s only worth it if you don’t have to pay for it. I think Scaled Agile (SAFe) is more desirable these days.

OP, state/local gov and higher education definitely still value the PMP cert. Worth the effort to sit thru the learning hours and the test, especially if D is paying. Big push to get more ppl SAFe certified, too. May as well take advantage of that if it’s offered at your local office.

Useless for non fed
