            PROJECT is group of activities that need to be done in order to accomplish a set of objectives in a specific time and with available resources. Projects are efforts to achieve objectives, within finite time and cost expectations. Projects produce outcomes like newly design car models, an annual budget, a great party, or a new procedure.

            We all know that project managers need many skills to be able to do their job effectively. Not just the technical skills that enable us to monitor and control a complex set of inter-dependent tasks, or skills that help us manage often very large budgets, but also those skills that help us motivate and enthuse team members, communicate effectively with senior executives and handle with diplomacy the business politics surrounding major organisational change. Project management truly requires multi-talented individuals with a range of capabilities rarely seen in a single role.

            Thus, it is wonderful that we are finally getting the sort of professional recognition that we deserve for developing our expertise in a role that has become the 21st century lynchpin in so many businesses and industries. 

            Yet, even given the fast-growing nature of Project Management, there are still many project managers who have ended up in the role by chance rather than making a specific career choice. It's an interesting and challenging role so most of us are motivated and fulfilled but it has become increasingly important as the field has expanded to develop a recognised career path backed up by professional credentials. Whether you are a newbie or have many years practical experience in Project Management achieving a professional Project Management qualification will distinguish you from your peers and improve your ability to successfully deliver projects; it will boost your career prospects and, potentially, your salary.
