Might be outdated info but from what I heard Prince2 is more popular in UK/Europe vs the PMP in the US.

Prince2 is good, but King2 is better.

Prince2 a staple project management qual in the uk, so a good one to have (a little debatable how useful it is in practice though). PMI or APM (association of project management) both also offer certs which may be less well known but would still be respected.

Lots of focus on agile at the moment as well (as in most place) so scrum/ some other agile fundamentals would be very well worth having (almost more than the traditional pm ones I think)

I'd probs go prince2 and scrum, so you've got one more traditional but also some agile grounding

Hello! I have a two part question: 1) is it worth it to obtain an SHRM specialty credential if I don’t have the broader SHRM certification? 2) has anyone gotten the People Analytics or Talent Acquistion credential? If so, how valuable was it from a learning perspective? Do you feel it significantly contributed to your knowledge in either area? Thank you!

I have a business idea in the VR/AR space utilizing AI. However, I lack skill sets to evaluate viability or to create an MVP. Neither do I have a network to tap into.

My plan is taking classes to deepen my knowledge while joining and actively participating in communities to find collaborators.

Does this approach make sense or do you recommend other approaches? If it makes sense, do you have any recommendations for classes or communities?

Look forward to hearing your experiences and wisdom!

What are your thoughts on the Scrum Master role? I’ve worked with a few now and out of 5 of them, only 1 seemed to be of any help.

I feel that the role should be reserved for employees with experience in the systems they work in.
