ESI and the PMI® UK Chapter - Working Together
ESI has worked closely with The Project Management Institute (PMI®) for over two decades, trying to improve global project management practices and foster excellence through rigorous training, and the establishment of credentials and international standards.
PMI® members have long enjoyed the benefits of automatic course discounts and access to free assessments and resources. All our courses are aligned to the PMBOK® Guide knowledge areas and award PDU's upon completion. Every course you take with ESI takes you one step closer to PMI® certification, giving you vital knowledge, as well as helping you fulfil the training hours you need to meet the PMI's certification exam requirements. Much of our learning materials also award PDUs, which are invaluable for PMI® members who want to remain current and maintain their credentials.
This year, we took our partnership to a new level and became the 'Learning Partner and Official Sponsor' of the PMI®. This strengthened relationship has resulted in a much more open dialogue between ESI and PMI members and a whole new set of benefits, exclusive to PMI members.
"ESI's support enables the chapter to give members what they want most, a better return on their membership investment," said Chris Field, PMP®, UK Chapter President.
Industry Certification Programmes
ESI International courses prepare you for the PMP® certifications. This PMI industry certification supports the international community of project management professionals and is designed to objectively assess and measure professional knowledge.

The PMP® accreditation is one of the world's most highly regarded professional project management qualifications. To be accepted as one of the industry's top performers, this credential is invaluable. It proves you can work to a high and internationally recognised standard.

According to a recent article released by ESI International titled - Certification - worth the hassle? This highlights five points why having the PMP® credential will be value to you.
