The Association for Project Management is the UK's leading professional body for Project Managers and the largest independent professional body of its kind in Europe. It has over 15,000 individual and 400 corporate members throughout the UK and abroad. APM training is based around the APM Body of Knowledge. Those directly dependent on project and programme management belong to all sectors of the economy, whether defence or IT, construction or transport, pharmaceutical or engineering. They benefit from the increasing professionalism and skill levels which APM promotes across project and programme management. Project professionals are able to demonstrate the APM five dimensions ...
... of professionalism:
breadth of understanding as defined by the APM Body of Knowledge,
depth of ability in line with the APM Competence Framework,
achievement through professional qualifications and a portfolio of evidence,
commitment through Continuing Professional Development,
Accountability through APM membership and the code of professional conduct.
The ability to think and act strategically is a prerequisite for board membership. Ideally candidates will be able to demonstrate previous effective experience of working at board level. The board is also keen to reflect the diverse nature of the membership, so nominations are welcome from members of both sexes, of all ages and ethnic groups.
WHO SHOULD ATTEND?
Those involved in projects, or on the periphery of projects. Also those wishing to prepare for the APM Introductory Certificate in Project Management, including:
1. New Project Managers
2. Team Leaders
3. Business Managers
4. Business Analysts

6. Business Studies Student
WHICH APM TRAINING PROVIDER SHOULD I ADHERE???
There are many providers of APMP training, however are all unique in their own way. Some providers offer online APM training which tends to have lower grades, as there is no interaction with a live trainer. Some providers offer APM training in a classroom with a trainer, which is undoubtedly the best option. We at The Knowledge Academy recommend the latter methodology and hence have the largest public schedule, allowing delegates to get trained on APMP nationwide, offering the best rate of £ 1050 for the full 5 day course.
