Once a candidate is deemed eligible, PMI will send an email containing exam scheduling instructions and an eligibility ID, which is required to schedule the examination. Exam appointments can be scheduled online according to the instructions provided by PMI. Full details are available in the official PMI-CP certification handbook.

The PMI-CP certification examination assesses candidates across multiple domains related to construction and built environment projects, including contracts management, stakeholder engagement, strategy and scope management, and project governance.

The examination is conducted as a computer-based test, and candidates are required to complete the exam within the allocated examination time defined by PMI.
