Can a PMP certified person give 35 hour PMP training?

The Project Management Institute (PMI) has specific guidelines regarding who can provide the 35 contact hours of project management education required for PMP certification eligibility. The 35 contact hours must be obtained through formal education, and the provider should be recognized by PMI. Typically, the education provider for the required 35 contact hours must be one of the following: PMI Registered Education Providers (R.E.P.s): PMI has a program for organizations that offer project management training. These organizations become PMI Registered Education Providers (R.E.P.s) after meeting certain criteria. PMP candidates can earn their 35 contact hours through training provided by R.E.P.s. PMI Chapters: Some local PMI chapters also offer training sessions, and the contact hours earned through these sessions can count toward the PMP eligibility requirements. PMI Authorized Training Partners (ATPs): PMI Authorized Training Partners are organizations authorized by PMI to provide project management training. PMP candidates can earn their 35 contact hours through ATPs. Individual PMP-certified professionals, unless they are affiliated with an authorized education provider or chapter, may not independently provide the 35-hour project management education required for PMP certification eligibility. If you are a PMP-certified professional interested in providing project management training, you may need to collaborate with a PMI R.E.P., ATP, or a PMI chapter. Alternatively, you could consider becoming affiliated with a training organization that meets PMI's criteria for providing PMP education. Keep in mind that policies and requirements may change, so it's advisable to check the most recent information from PMI or contact PMI directly for the latest guidelines on earning the required 35 contact hours for PMP certification. read less
