You will be made aware of your PMP certification exam test result before you leave your test desk. If you pass the exam, it will give you a congratulatory message and inform you that you will get your certificate within four to six weeks at the address you gave to PMI at the time of filling out the application form. If you failed, you will see it there as well. Once you pass the exam, you can start using the title “PMP” immediately, though you may receive your certificate four weeks later. After passing the PMP exam, within one to two weeks you will receive an email from the PMI offering their congratulations and then you can see your name in the PMI certification registry. In addition, you can see your certificate status from your PMI account. When I passed my exam, this information was updated within 24 hours but nowadays they take one to two weeks to update it. All the best for Exam! Please don’t forget to share your PMP lessons learned here, once you take your PMP certification exam.
