The International Project Management Officer (IPMO)® certification is the most important industry-recognized certification series for project management officers and professionals working in, or associated with, PMO activities and related services. There are three core certifications reflecting the level of competency: Foundation, Practitioner, and Expert, three foundational certifications, and a specialist PMO certification series reflecting the unique demands on PMOs that bridge projects, programs, and portfolios including the operational environment.
Certified AIPMO Experts have demonstrated, through a combination of formal training, workshop, and competency assessment, that they have an in-depth understanding of PMO principles, theory, and practices, including the design, implementation, and operation of complex PMO topologies and their respective PMO service topologies. IPMO-E© experts are typically at the PMO director level/consultant, and this certification builds on the IPMO-F© foundation and the IPMO-P© practitioner certifications.
