Some standards for project activities. Levels of ipma certification Certified ipma project director level a

To make it easier for you, I combined the information on them into one table. I included in the types of certification something that is quite common in Russia and can help you in your career. Generally speaking, there are 3 areas of certification:

project management- general approach to project management. The most famous certification is Project Management Professional ( PMP)
andsoftware life cycle(Application Lifetime Management, ALM) - includes such approaches to software creation as RUP and MSF
separate software tools for project management

If you have any questions about how to pass this or that certification, write in the comments. I can advise on obtaining PMP/PME and MCTS. Both certifications are provided through Prometric. You can take the PMP at least in Moscow and St. Petersburg. MCTS 70-632 in Moscow, St. Petersburg, Arkhangelsk, Biysk, Bryansk, Yekaterinburg, Irkutsk and a number of other cities (full information on the Prometric website).

In Russia there are three classic, most popular certifications: PMI, IPMA, PRINCE2.

These systems are similar, but are aimed at solving different problems and have different target audiences.

PMI Certification

PMI certification represents a process school in project management.

Process school focuses on process standardization. Representatives of this school believe that in order to obtain a high-quality result, it is enough to build a high-quality process. The relevant standards describe the processes, tools and techniques that are used in these processes.

Most renowned organization, representing the process school, is the Project Management Institute (PMI). The Institute releases its Project Management Body Of Knowledge (PMBOK)® standard - Project Management Body of Knowledge.

The book describes the processes that a project manager must use to keep a project under control. For each process the following are described:

input data,
results,
tools,
technology,
methods.

After successfully completing the certification, the candidate receives the title Project Management Professional (PMP)® - project management professional.

To obtain the PMP certification, you must not only demonstrate that you know and understand the contents of the PMBOK®, but also demonstrate that you have some experience in project management.

The exam takes the form of computer testing and lasts 4 hours. Out of 200 questions, 175 are taken into account, the passing score is 61%, the cost of the exam is $555.

The PMP certificate is valid for 5 years, after which it can be renewed. The certificate must be renewed every three years; to renew, you must obtain 60 PDUs (Professional Development Units). professional development). Accounting and accrual of PDU is carried out in personal account specialist on the PMI website. You can receive a PDU for participating in educational events and professional conferences, for volunteer activities.

The presence of a PMP certificate means that its owner can be entrusted with a serious, large-scale, expensive project. Just as we, when choosing, for example, a dentist, strive to assess his professional qualifications - and for this we check whether he has professional certificates and diplomas of special medical education, so the business owner strives to make sure that he trusts his project and his money to the real one. to a professional. And this confidence is given to him by the fact that the candidate for the role of project manager has a PMP certificate.

Today there are more than 700,000 PMPs in the world.

Example question from PMI certification:

IPMA Certification

Another well-known direction in project management is the competency-based school.

The focus here is on the competencies of project managers. The relevant standards describe the qualities, knowledge and skills of people working in project management.

The main organization representing the competency-based school in the world is the International Project Management Association IPMA (International Project Management Association).

IPMA is widely represented throughout the world through a network of national associations - today there are more than 60 of them.

Representatives of this school believe that it is not processes that need to be standardized, but people. If a specialist has a certain set of elements of competence, then, regardless of whether processes are built in the organization or not, he can be thrown on any project - availability key competencies will allow him to get his bearings, assemble a team, select tools and successfully complete the project.

This approach is reflected in the PM ICB standard developed by IPMA - Project Management International Competence Baseline. The ICB contains competency requirements for project management professionals.

Currently, each of the national associations is developing its own national standard, adapted to local conditions, but based on the ICB. In Russia IPMA represents non-profit organization SOVNET, which developed and maintains NTK - National requirements for competence in the field of project management.

IPMA certification includes four levels:

Level A. Certified Project Director. The level of the top manager of an organization who controls the entire portfolio of the company's projects. Today in Russia there are only 150 specialists of this level.
Level B: Certified Senior Project Manager. The level of project curator is a manager who simultaneously controls a number of projects. This is a specialist who sets milestones, requests information, and organizes work on projects.
Level C. Certified Project Manager. Having a Level C certificate confirms that a specialist can be trusted to independently manage a project. In order to receive a Level C certificate, the candidate must demonstrate practical experience working on projects.
Level D. Certified specialist. This is a certificate basic level, the presence of which confirms that the specialist has all the necessary competencies to work as a member of the project team. When completing certification at Level D, you do not need to confirm your practical experience working on projects.

The figure below shows the structure and cost of passing the exam for different levels of IPMA certification.

The examination session lasts three days:

On the first day there is a written test. The test includes closed and open questions: answering closed questions, the candidate chooses one of the proposed options; answering an open-ended question, writes a one-page essay. Moreover, even when answering closed questions, the candidate can leave comments on the answer. The answers are evaluated not by a computer, but by an assessor, and in controversial situations, he can take into account what is written in the comments and remove penalty points from the candidate.
On the second day of the certification session, a business game is held (for levels C, B and A). Teams are formed from candidates, each team receives a case and develops key management documents for this case. During the game, assessors observe the candidates: who communicates how, how the team distributed the work, how the team determined the leader, etc., and draw appropriate conclusions. At the end of the game, the team makes a presentation, a formal assessment of the work performed is performed, and the assessors render their verdict.
On the third day of the assessment session, personal interviews are held: first, the candidate presents his experience using the example of one of his projects, the assessors ask questions, and make a final decision.

Example of a closed question from IPMA certification

Development of a project domain management concept does not include:

Analysis of the problem and need for the project;
Analysis of the reasons causing deviations in the subject area of the project;
Clarification of the main characteristics of the project;
All of the above;
A and B;
A and C;
B and C;
None of the options.

Example of an open question from IPMA certification

How are the volume of work, its speed and the amount of resource related?

The IPMA certificate is valid for 5 years; to renew it you must pass an exam. In total, there are about 500,000 holders of such certificates in the world.

PRINCE2® Certified

There is another popular international system certification of project managers, which does not belong to any of the above schools - PRINCE2®.

This is a method that was developed in the late 1980s. in the UK government as a way of managing informatization projects. Over time, this method moved to a new qualitative level and became universal, applicable to projects of any type. The method is used at the government level in almost all EU countries to implement important large-scale projects.

As an example, recently completed project reconstruction of the seaport in Rotterdam (Netherlands). PRINCE2® is the official implementation method for all UN projects, and a very similar method is used by the European Commission.

Managing successful projects with PRINCE2® is a guide to action that describes three things:

Principles of Project Management
Project Management Tools
Sequence of actions in project management

Today, this method is the most popular in the field of project management due to its practicality and adaptability for large and small projects.

In total, there are more than 1,500,000 certified PRINCE2® specialists worldwide.

The certification system includes three levels:

PRINCE2® Foundation. A certificate at this level confirms that the specialist knows the contents of the PRINCE2® manual and correctly understands all professional terms. The exam lasts 1 hour, includes 75 questions, and to receive a certificate you must answer 50% of the questions correctly. The cost of certification is 12,000 rubles.
PRINCE2® Practitioner. A certificate at this level confirms that the specialist knows the contents of the manual and knows how to adapt the method to his project. This exam is more difficult because it tests not knowledge of the book, but the ability to apply knowledge in a specific situation. The candidate receives a case and answers 80 questions about this case. To receive a certificate, he must answer 55% of the questions correctly in 2.5 hours. The cost of certification is 16,000 rubles.
PRINCE2® Professional. The most “advanced” level of certification, not yet available in Russia. A certificate of this level confirms that a specialist not only knows and can apply the method in practice, but is also able to implement the method in a particular organization. To receive a certificate, the candidate must undergo a three-day examination session at the assessment center, including a personal interview with assessors.

Example question from the PRINCE2® Practitioner certification

At the end of the initiation phase, the project manager updated the project plan to show how and when all expected benefits from the promotional calendar would be measured and recorded.

Is this an appropriate use of PRINCE2® in this project?

No, because all changes to the project plan must be approved by the project management board.
No, because most of the expected benefits will be achieved after the project is closed.
Yes, because it is important to define a way to measure each benefit so that measurable improvements can be made.
Yes, because the expected benefits of a promotional calendar can be measured over time life cycle project.

The first Russian national certification PM STANDARD

PM STANDARD certification – the first national system certification in the field of project management, conceived as certification according to Russian GOSTs:

GOST R ISO 10006-2005 “Guide to quality management in design”
GOST R 54869 – 2011 “Project management. Requirements for project management"
GOST R 54871 – 2011 “Project management. Requirements for program management"
GOST R 54870 – 2011 “Project management. Requirements for project portfolio management"
GOST R ISO 21500 – 2014 “Guide to project management”

Today, a basic level of certification is available.

5 more levels are being prepared for release. Certification for project managers will be available at the end of March 2017.

The cost of basic level certification is 7,000 rubles, which sets it apart from others presented at Russian market systems

Testing is carried out in regional certification centers using a specially developed information system certification.

The Basic Level exam lasts 90 minutes and includes 60 closed and 2 open questions. Closed questions may have multiple correct answers and provide the opportunity to leave comments.

The answers are checked by both the computer and the assessor, who can add points in a controversial situation.

To receive a certificate, the candidate must answer 70% of the questions correctly. The certificate is valid for 5 years; to renew, you must retake the exam.

As of the day of publication of the material (9 months from the start), more than 400 people have already been certified, including managers and employees of project offices of a number of government bodies and state-owned companies.

Since certification of PM STANDARD within the organization allows the introduction of a single language project management, the main interest in this certification is the organization, in contrast to the three systems described above, where the main interest is the candidate.

Example of a closed certification question PM STANDARD BASIC

Which of the following statements are true?

(Please provide multiple answer options)

Constraints have an impact on accepted management decisions according to the project Limitations and requirements are interrelated.
When reducing project timescales, it is necessary to either increase costs, or reduce the volume of required results, or both
The success of the project depends, among other things, on whether agreement is reached and the same understanding of the limitations by key Stakeholders
There are only four constraints on a project: project scope, quality of results, schedule and costs.

We studied project management certifications that were current for the summer of 2018. The article presents both international certifications and their Russian analogues.

PMI Certifications

PMI (Project Management Institute) is an organization developing methodology in the field of project management. The training system is described in detail in the American standard PMBOK. PMI represents a process approach to management that standardizes project planning, implementation, change control, and completion.

There are several certifications under the PMI umbrella

PMP (Project Management Professional)– confirms knowledge and skills according to the PMBOK standard. In operation since 1984 and intended mainly for project managers. To be admitted to the exam (PC testing), you must have worked in the industry for at least 3 years, have higher education(Bachelor and higher). You can take exams both in the USA and in the Russian Federation. In the latter case, the test takes place at one of the Prometric testing centers and in Russian. The certificate is valid for 3 years with the possibility of extension. The exam fee is $405 for PMI members and $555 for others.
CAPM (Certified Associate in Project Management)– a “simplified” version of the PMP with relaxed requirements for candidates. Suitable for potential project team members. To be admitted to the exams, it is enough to have a secondary education and 1 year of work in projects. The certificate is valid for 5 years and costs $225 for PMI members and $300 for other candidates.
PgMP (Program Management Professional)– “advanced” program, to pass the exam you must have 4 years of experience as a project manager. The exam costs $800 for PMI members and $1,000 for other candidates. The certificate confirms the specialist's ability to manage multiple related projects. The PgMP is valid for 3 years.

PMI does not require completion of courses to access the exam; it is enough to use the materials in the online library. However, the institute’s website provides a list of accredited training centers in all regions.

IPMA Certifications

IPMA (International Project Management Association) is a Swiss organization that has created a European approach to project management based on the development of skills and competencies of specialists. The ideas of the approach are outlined in detail in the PM ICB standard.

IPMA operates through a system of national branches in 68 countries, including Russia. Each department develops its own standard, which takes into account the peculiarities of local legislation and economics, and certifies specialists. In Russia, these functions are assigned to the SOVNET organization, which trains and prepares specialists for exams.

IPMA certification has been in effect since 1998 and consists of 4 levels:

Level D- project participant, technical specialist, junior manager. This is the simplest certification, there are no work experience requirements, just a bachelor's degree is enough. Access to the exam costs $350 for IPMA members and $450 for everyone else.
Level C– project manager. Experience requirements: 3 years as a project manager. The cost for IPMA members is $995, for other candidates — $1225.
Level B– senior project manager who can simultaneously oversee several projects. At the time of application, you must confirm 3 years of work experience. The cost is $1,195 for IPMA members and $1,425 for everyone else.
Level A(highest level) – project director, vice president, top manager who controls the company’s project portfolio. To access the exam, you must demonstrate 5 years of experience as a program manager. The cost is $1,495 for IPMA members and $1,725 for others.

Each certificate is issued for 5 years, with the possibility of extension. For applicants for level D certification, the exam takes the form of a written test, for all others - tests + team case solution + personal interview.

PRINCE2 Certification

The PRINCE2 methodology is used as the basic standard for project management in the EU, UK and within a number of UN departments. The methodology was developed in 1996 by the UK Cabinet Secretariat, and in 2013 the rights to the PRINCE2 trademark were transferred to AXELOS. The methodology is based on three-level project management and a clear distribution of tasks between participants.

Certification consists of two levels:

Foundation– the certificate confirms deep knowledge of the PRINCE2 methodology, readiness to work in a team as a technical specialist, project manager or his assistant. There are no work experience or education requirements.
Practitioner- For project managers, project managers. Must have previous level certification or one of the PMI or IPMA products.

The exams take the form of testing, they are available in Russian, and can be taken at one of the accredited test centers that cooperate with AXELOS. The cost of exams depends on the chosen center. Basically, one exam costs in the range of 14-18 thousand rubles. At the time of receiving the certificate, you must be a member of PRINCE2 and pay an annual membership fee of 50 pounds ($66.39).

You can prepare for exams on your own or with the help of training centers. The AXELOS website has a filter for searching for accredited partners in each specific region.

Certification PM STANDARD

Domestic analogue international certifications based on Russian approaches, practices and GOSTs. Software product developed by TsORPU (Center for Assessment and Development of Project Management).

There are several levels of PM Standard:

Basic level– corresponds to the position of a project team member, confirms the presence of knowledge and skills in terms of project management, including based on GOST and ISO standards. The cost of the exam is 7,000 rubles.
Project Coordinator– consists of several modules: project office specialist, project manager, complex and complex projects. The cost of the exam is from 10 to 32 thousand rubles. It is necessary to confirm work experience (from one to five years, depending on the selected competency), and provide a basic level certificate (or a PRINCE2, PMI or IPMA certificate).

The key to successfully passing the certification test is quality preparation.

Certificates are valid for 5 years. You can get certified in one of 35 regional centers or remotely online. TsORPU offers 3 free attempts to pass the exam. You can study either independently or with the help of accredited study program partners. Their list is presented on the official website of TsORPU.

Demand for certifications in the CIS

We did a little research and counted the number of vacancies in the CIS market (Russia, Ukraine, Belarus, Kazakhstan) with explicitly stated requirements for knowledge of PMBOK, PRINCE2, IPMA, PM STANDARD. We searched on the sites hh.ru, hh.kz, jobs.tut.by and hh.ua and got the following results:

PMI certification is in greatest demand among employers. IPMA and PRINCE2 are in second and third place with approximately the same indicators. There are few vacancies that require a PM STANDARD certificate. Most likely, this is due to the high trust of employers in international certifications.

Here are the main areas where certified managers and project leaders are sought:

IT and telecom;
construction;
production;
leadership positions in large companies any sphere.

Employers are divided into two categories:

The first category indicates PMI/IPMA/PRINCE2 certificates as a significant plus for the candidate.
The second category indicates the presence of certificates for project management standards (PMP, IPMA, PRINCE2) in the mandatory requirements section.

To summarize, employers expect applicants to have knowledge of methodologies and the ability to apply them in practice, knowledge of relevant software, and experience in managing processes and teams.

As promised, I’ll tell you what I know about the certifications of the two largest international organizations PMI and IPMA.

I myself have passed the IPMA - CPMA certification (Certified Project Management Associate, otherwise entry level D), and now I am preparing for PMP certification.

The story does not pretend to be complete, so “don’t hit the pianist, he plays as best he can.” And of course, this is all pure IMHO. :)

Why get certified

When people talk about certification, usually someone remarks, “Should you check or go?” It is my deep conviction that this matter is purely personal and there cannot be a single opinion here.

Naturally, certification is closer to checkers, and not to driving. Only practical experience and skills in project management will help you get there. As they rightly say, project management can only be learned by managing projects. And your projects and the people you worked with speak loudest about your professionalism.

At the same time, I personally am a supporter of certification. Reasons:

Certification confirms some level of your knowledge and skills in project management.
Ensures that you can communicate with other professionals in the same language.
Shows that you are capable of putting in extra effort to achieve goals, i.e. you can go the extra mile (after all, you spent your time studying for and taking the exam and had some purpose in doing so).
Many employers value them because... In addition to the above reasons, it is important for an organization to have certified specialists on its staff and to include certified specialists in projects, especially if the organization actively participates in tenders.

Those. Personally, it makes sense to receive certificates, but of course only in addition to practical experience, and not instead of it.

If you decide to get certified in project management, then it makes sense to consider two main certification programs:

PMI - Project Management Institute - an American, but de facto international professional organization;
IPMA - International Project Management Association is an international non-profit professional organization registered in Switzerland.

There are other certification programs, for example, certification according to Prince2 (British standard for project management), but they are less common and should only be considered if you clearly understand why you need it.

Certification levels

Both certification programs are multi-level, i.e. You can confirm your growth in project management with appropriate certificates.

In PMI

Program Management Professional (PgMP – Program Management Professional) – program manager level.
Project Management Professional (PMP) – Professional in project management) – project manager level.
Certified Associate in Project Management (CAPM) - Certified Project Management Specialist) – level of project team member.

In IPMA The following hierarchy is provided:

Level A. Certified Program or Project Director - CPD (Certified Projects Director - CPD) - level of program and project portfolio manager.
Level B. Certified Project Manager - CPM (Certified Senior Project Manager - CPM) - level of manager of a complex project.
Level C. Certified Project Management Professional - SPUP ( Certified Project Manager - SMP ) – level of the manager of a simple project.
Level D Certified Project Management Associate (CPMA) – level of project team member.

What is the difference between certifications

PMI Certification is conducted on the basis of the Guide to the Project Management Body of Knowledge (Guide PMBOK ), which is an American national standard. In turn, certification IPMA in Russia is carried out on the basis of the National Competence Requirements (NTC).

The main difference between these documents is in the approaches to project management outlined. IN PMBOK a process approach is used to describe project management. Those. Project management processes are defined and for each its inputs, tools and methods, and outputs are considered. The STC states a systematic approach, but I can’t say anything about it, because I still don’t understand what its meaning is, and most importantly, how it can help me in projects.

From my point of view, the fundamental difference was well described by Alexey Soldatov (taken from www . e- executive. ru )

“... The task of any certification is to check the compliance of the certification object (product, service, etc.) with certain requirements (standards, technical specifications etc.). Keyword here is compliance.

From this point of view, PMI certification corresponds to the concept of certification to the maximum extent possible. The requirements are formalized and verification of such compliance is easier to perform.

In IPMA, the requirements are not clearly defined; national, industry and other specificities are allowed. Therefore, the process of determining compliance allows for interpretation and one’s own opinion on some issues.

This leads to the goals of certification for these different systems:

PMI - determine the compliance of knowledge with formalized requirements in order to ensure a single semantic and conceptual space for project participants, ensure unambiguous understanding and clear interaction, unity of methods and tools.
IPMA - check the general level of training of specialists, taking into account experience (at levels above D a description of experience and detailed analysis one of the projects), knowledge and understanding (written exam with the possibility of explaining the answers), abilities and skills (team work on a case - 2nd day of certification at level C), the ability to defend one’s position (defense of the project and interview with assessors - 3- 1st day of certification for level C).

However, the following clarifications are necessary to the above comment:

« In IPMA, the requirements are not clearly defined; national, industry and other specificities are allowed. Therefore, the process of determining compliance allows for interpretation and one’s own opinion on some issues.» - based on my experience in certification IPMA I can say that the reason is not the admission of specifics, but the fact that they simply could not write the document strictly, and therefore cannot make it a standard.
For certification according to PMI starting from PMP confirmation of experience is also necessary, but unlike IPMA it is carried out only in a written description (without cases and interviews with assessors). The topics covered are broader than those described in PMBOK and the Code of Ethics for Project Managers, which implies that the person being certified has experience and skills in project management and knowledge that goes beyond PMBOK.

Accordingly, the written exams for these certifications differ significantly.

In PMI This is a computer-based exam consisting entirely of closed questions; there is no opportunity to comment on them. The exam is taken in Russian, maybe it is possible to take it in English, but I don’t know for sure.

In IPMA The written exam is taken on paper and consists of 25 closed and 25 open questions. Moreover, due to the lack of strictness of the Scientific and Technical Code, comments on all questions, even closed ones, are allowed to be made, explaining exactly why this answer option was chosen. Personally, this “blurring” of the exam really stressed me out when taking it.

A few words still need to be said about the quality of translation into Russian PMBOK . There is a lot of criticism towards translators, even the following statistics are given - the distortion of meanings ranges from 52.1% to 73.9%. These statistics were obtained by comparing the titles of figures and tables in the Russian and English versions and extending the results obtained to the entire text PMBOK . It is interesting that representatives of SOVNET (the project management association, which is a national Russian organization as part of IPMA ). At the same time, I have never come across information about how significantly these distortions influence the acquisition of project management knowledge and their applicability in practice. Personally, I encountered the following “surprise” of translation. IN PMBOK There are five project management process groups and one of them is called the “monitoring and management process group”, i.e. it turns out that among the process groups management there is a special group of monitoring processes and management, and then what do other groups have to do with management? I looked into the English version and it turned out that the English word controlling translated as management, as well as management . It was after this that I began to doubt the Russian translation.

I hope what I wrote will be interesting to someone, and maybe useful.:)

Do you want international recognition as a project, program or portfolio professional? Do you want to be assessed on your current competence level and be internationally certified?
Do you want to employ or hire a project, program or portfolio manager who has proven to be competent?
Do you want to know how you can improve your competences as a professional project, program or portfolio manager?

IPMA offers an international, competency-based, four level certification (4-L-C) scheme. In your own country, in your own language, at your own competence level. If you want to learn more about our levels, please look at , and . If you want to understand the certification process, . If you want to connect to the Certification Body in your own country, and you will be redirected to your local IPMA Membership Association and Certifying Body.

Individual Competence Baseline

Worldwide, the IPMA certification is based on the global competence standard, ICB. This standard is defined by the IPMA and describes the competences that project, program and portfolio managers should possess. Currently, IPMA is transitioning from ICB version 3 to ICB version 4. You can contact your local organization to get more details on the transitioning path. By the end of 2019, all certifications will be based upon ICB version 4 – worldwide.

If you are looking for project, program and portfolio managers who have proven competences, look for IPMA certified professionals. Certified professionals are registered in the international database.

Re-certification

A certificate needs to be updated on a regular basis. After a specific period of time, a certificate is withdrawn unless a person undergoes the re-certification process. In this process, a professional can maintain the certificate, by proving the required competences are still maintained at the right level. See

Organization SOVNET (branchIPMAin the Russian Federation) – NTK standard

NTK(National Competency Requirements) represent the main regulatory document of the National Certification Program in Russia. Scientific and technical instructions were developed in accordance with the requirements of IPMA, based on ICB, and take into account the national characteristics of culture, economics and achievements in the field of project management in Russia.

The STC is based on a system model of project management, which is based on three main blocks: management subjects, management objects and management processes. Each block has a hierarchical structure, which in turn correlates with sections of the scientific and technical code.

Control objects– these are projects, programs, organizations, systems. During the management process, each object goes through certain phases of its life cycle.

Subjects of management– these are the participants of the project (program), i.e. all those who are directly involved in the project or whose interests may be affected as a result of the implementation of the project (program). The STC identifies the following groups of participants: main (key) project participants, project management team, other project participants.

Management processes include:

project initiation;

project planning;

organization and control of project implementation;

analysis and introduction of corrective actions during project implementation;

closure of a project or its stage.

The following are implemented in the project management process: Features:

domain management;

management of project time parameters;

cost management in the project;

quality management in the project;

project risk management;

personnel management in the project;

project communications management;

management of contracts and procurement in the project;

project change management.

Object management can be carried out at different levels: strategic, operational, temporary and others.

National standards for project management

United Kingdom. PRINCE2 is a British standard created in 1989 for the management of government projects in the field of information technology. The latest version of the standard was published in 2002. PINCE2 is based on a process approach and allows you to manage any type of project. Due to its detailed elaboration, extremely clear description and flexibility, this standard is quite popular outside of Britain.

Japan Project & Program Management (P2M) is a Japanese standard that is attracting more and more attention from specialists around the world. At the heart of the P2M model is a close connection between the organization's strategy and the ways it is implemented through projects.

China C-PMBOK - PMBOK modified to suit the realities of China. The first version of the standard was published in 2002. This document is used as a guide for project management professionals to prepare for certification.

International standards regulating the content of Project Management

In the field of systems management, a number of international standards are used, supported by relevant international organizations. These standards define the norms and rules for managing processes in technical system projects, system life cycle processes, design processes, etc. For example, ISO/ IEC 12207, Information Technology – Software life cycle processes (1995); ISO/ IEC TR 15271, Information Technology – Guide for ISO/ IEC 12207 (1998); ISO/ IEC 15288 CD2, Life Cycle Management – System Life Cycle Processes (2000) and others.
