In 2003, subject matter experts from around the globe added
the latest thinking in project management to the exam. This
effort made a strong certification even better. As a predictor
of practical skills and a valuable career credential, CompTIA
Project+ certification is definitely on target.
Why
CompTIA IT Project+?
Industry research indicates that 74 percent of all projects
fail, come in over budget or are overdue. Twenty-eight percent
of projects fail altogether. Proper training and certification
can significantly reduce these risks because certified professionals
have the knowledge to successfully overcome obstacles and
complete projects on time and under budget.
In
addition to traditional projects, organizations frequently
engage in technology-based initiatives such as business
process improvement projects. A CompTIA Project+ certification
can be an important credential for individuals leading projects,
as it demonstrates knowledge of critical project management
and business concepts.

Recommends CompTIA IT Project+
"An
entry-level project management certification relevant in
the networking world makes for a good investment. I strongly
suggest you consider this certification if you have project
management skills, a desire to work in that field, and no
other certification in that discipline."
