Beyond PMP what is the best thing to do?

Submitted by reddyvsrao on Wed, 06/26/2013 - 21:17

I just cleared my PMP a week ago and thinking what are the options available if I can spare time to improve knowledge that is helpfull in Project Management career.


Initially thought of appearing for RMP before this Aug'13 as PMBOK 4 is applicable for RMP till end of August. But read some comments that it is purely for people fulltime into risk management.


Please share your ideas and thoughts.


Thanks,


Subba.

 ya, dont take certifications for the sake of it, there is no value when people keep taking certifications and dont perform as well in their job

Next step can be to apply the principles that you have learnt in PMP to deliver the project successfully on time and on budget , if you can do that nothing like it, keep delivering bigger projects and enhancing your PM Skills and one day if you manage large programs it would feel like huge accomplishment. 

do certifications if they are relevant to your job. PMP is generic certification and defacto standard in industry. For eg if you are Agile professional you can consider some other certification.

I agree "there is no value when people keep taking certifications and dont perform as well in their job"!
