What's New in the PMP® Exam
The new PMP® reflects how projects are run today — more weight on business value, interactive question types, and AI & sustainability woven throughout. Our course is built for it.
Re-balanced exam domains
Business Environment more than triples in weight — the biggest shift in the new exam.
Why it changed
Today's project leaders are judged on the value they deliver to the business — not just on schedules and budgets. The new exam tests real-world judgement through scenario-based, graphic, matching and point-and-click questions, and introduces AI and sustainability into project decision-making.
New: Knowledge Check. Learners must pass an 80% end-of-course quiz (unlimited, untimed attempts) to receive their certificate of completion. We build this into your prep.
