Certified International Project Manager (IAPM)

2 / 4

WHAT IS IT ALL ABOUT?
The success of international projects in a
global business environment depends on a
number of additional factors. These include
different approaches to communication and
different rules of conduct by project team
members in different countries, and their
different expectations of the project and the
project manager himself. A project manager
working in a transcultural project has a far
more complex task of planning, organising,
managing and successfully closing out the
project.
If you have already demonstrated a funda-
mental knowledge of project management

tification, you can register to take the Cer-
