Why Choose PMI-RMP®? Find Out!


The Proactive Risk PM Weekly

Proactive Over Reactive. Always.

Reader,

The first PMI-RMP® Exam Prep Course is on the schedule! I am swapping out my PMP® course in December for the PMI-RMP® course because I can’t wait to start teaching my favorite topic, Risk Management!

Sign up link to come out later this week! Reply back and let me know if you are interested!

Which is the motivator for kicking off my YouTube series on the PMI-RMP® Exam Content Outline. There are tons of resources out there that explain the PMP®, but nothing useful for the PMI-RMP®.

I’m starting this series out with a video answering the question, “Is the PMI-RMP® worth it?”. Check it out below!

PMI-RMP®: Is It Worth It?


Since earning the PMI-RMP®, a question I get often is “Was it worth it”?
Which is actually an easy question to answer. And the question I tackle in this week’s YouTube video!

For those who don’t know, the PMI-RMP® is PMI’s certification that focuses on Risk Management. And the PMI-RMP® is the premier certification that covers all aspects of managing risks within projects, programs, and portfolios.

And with only about 16,000 - 17,000 RMP’s in the world vs over a 1M PMP’s, there is definitely a small group of professional who love this topic as much as I do!

What you’ll learn in this weeks video:
🔶 The worth of the PMI-RMP®
🔶 Who is hiring PMI-RMP®’s
🔶 Will the PMI-RMP® get your promoted

Your Takeaway:
The PMI-RMP is a great certification for becoming the resident expert in risk management.
