Construction and PMO
PMI-PMOCP™ PMO Leadership Preparation
PMI's credential for PMO professionals who build offices that deliver measurable business value — not administrative overhead.
- Preparation for PMI's PMO Certified Professional (PMI-PMOCP)™ examination
- Covers PMO design, value delivery, stakeholder alignment and performance measurement
- Accessible eligibility: an active PMP® or documented project-related experience can qualify you
Who this programme is for
PMO directors, managers and analysts · portfolio and governance officers · transformation-office staff · consultants who build or rescue PMOs · strategy and operations leaders responsible for delivery oversight.
PMOs are judged on value, not paperwork — and the PMI-PMOCP™ certifies exactly that: the ability to align a PMO with organizational strategy and prove its contribution. PMI launched this credential in 2026 as the successor to the PMO Global Alliance's PMO-CP, bringing PMO certification into the core PMI family. This programme prepares PMO practitioners and leaders for the current examination.
Expected experience or prerequisites
Current PMI requirements include a secondary degree plus either project-related experience within a recent window or an active PMP® in good standing, along with formal PMO education hours.

Requirements are set by the awarding body, not by Paraklete Institute. We review your circumstances before you commit.

Frequently asked questions
Is this the same as the old PMO-CP?
PMI-PMOCP™ is PMI's successor to the PMO Global Alliance's PMO-CP credential, now administered within PMI's certification family.
Do I need a PMP first?
No — an active PMP is one qualifying route, but documented project-related experience is an alternative path. The Advisor Clarity Call confirms which applies to you.
Is passing guaranteed?
No — same policy as every programme.
The PMI-PMOCP™ examination and certification are administered by the Project Management Institute, Inc. Paraklete Institute provides examination preparation and does not issue the PMI-PMOCP™ credential or guarantee examination success. PMI eligibility requirements, examination fees and policies are set by PMI and may change.
