Prerequisites and exam information
To take the exam, you must meet the following prerequisites:
- a minimum of secondary education, and
- 23 hours of structured project management training, fully certified by participation in our training programme.
Do you have at least 3 years of experience? If so, we recommend the PMP qualification.
The CAPM exam consists of 150 questions (test, pairing, multiple choice) and takes 3 hours to complete. The exam can be taken at several locations each week, and from 2018 you can also take the exam at home using a webcam and microphone. The test questions typically test lexical knowledge, with a level of difficulty matching the notoriously difficult PMI exams.
