PMI · NGS-1030
A project can succeed and still be the wrong work. Twenty-four live hours walk the exam for people who decide which programs and projects the organisation should fund. Strategy, governance, performance, risk, and who must be told. You leave ready to book the exam. The fee is separate.
The exam and the seat
Strategic alignment
Governance
Portfolio performance
Portfolio risk
Communications
This is for portfolio leads, PMO heads, and executives who already choose, stop, and balance a set of investments. A portfolio is not a large program. It is the collection of work the organisation is willing to pay for, and the work it should stop. The exam is 170 questions in four hours, in English. Twenty of the questions are not scored. The marks sit in strategic alignment (25 percent), governance (20 percent), portfolio performance (25 percent), portfolio risk (15 percent), and communications (15 percent). The institute sets the experience, all of it inside the last fifteen years. With a high school diploma it asks for eight years of business experience and seven years of portfolio management. With a bachelor degree it asks for eight years of business experience and four years of portfolio management. A degree from a GAC program still asks for eight years of business experience, and three years of portfolio work. There is a panel review before you are invited to book the exam. This course walks what that review reads. It does not write the application, and the exam fee is not in this price. Confirm the current rules on the application. Dates and the fee are on this page.
