Preface

The universal IPMA® Four Level Certification (4-L-C) system became operational in 1998 officially and world-

wide, after several years of development in our national associations.

The certification of a Member Association (MA) starts with the nomination of the first assessors, the establish-

ment of the certification body engaging important sectors of the economy, and the transfer of the IPMA Com-

petence Baseline (IPMA ICB®) to the National Competence Baseline (NCB) or the direct usage of IPMA’s ICB by

the Certification Body (CB).

The own first assessors are assisted by an experienced assessor from an existing CB. The IPMA approved first

assessors are responsible for the validity of the system until the initial validation by IPMA.

The IPMA® integrated services system consists now of the

• IPMA® Four Level Certification for PM professionals

• IPMA® Two Level Certification for PM consultants

• IPMA® Excellence Award

• IPMA Delta® Certification for organisations.

In the year 2012

• The certification bodies of 48 member associations were in operation. The great performance and the con-

tinuing high growth rates demonstrate how much potential is in the IPMA Certification System.

• 11 Agreement Additions for the PM Consultant certification and 16 Agreement Additions for the IPMA Delta

certification had been signed. The CBs had granted 30 PM Consultant certificates to individuals. 9 organi-

sations had got an IPMA Delta certificate and 2 were in process. A large growth is expected for the year 2013.

• Again a great quantitative growth in the project management certification was realised this year. Until the

end of the year 2012 more than 172’000 certificates were granted in total. Until the end of the year 2013

the total is planned to grow to almost 200’000 certificates.

• The share of the 4 Level certificates is about 0.3% Level A, 5.5% Level B, 24.8% Level C and 69.4% Level D.

The growth factors for the number of certificates per year since the year 2006 are 4.2 for Level A, 1.7 for

Level B, 1.6 for level C and 1.9 for Level D.

• The IPMA® Integrated Certification Services and the IPMA® Registration of Education Programs and Trai-

ning Courses are animating an excellent and sustainable professional development for the IPMA® Member

Associations and their members.

More and more organisations and project, programme and portfolio managers prefer the ICB (now extended

by ICBC for project management consultancy) as the global standard. The IPMA Certification is the scale for

their competence.

The IPMA® Integrated Certification Services fit the personal development and career of individuals as well as the

excellence of projects and project teams and the competitiveness of the companies and the other organisations.

IPMA Certification System

The International Project Management Association (IPMA®) is a non-profit organisation, whose function is to

be the prime promoter of project, programme and portfolio management (PM) internationally.

The membership of IPMA is primarily of national project management associations. More than 50 member

associations serve the specific needs of the project management discipline in their own country in their own

language. IPMA develops those needs at the international and global levels.

To achieve this aim IPMA has developed a number of services encompassing research and development, edu-

cation and training, certification, standards, awards and young crew as well as conferences, seminars, work-

shops and publications.

An individual or organisation automatically supports IPMA if they become a member of a national project

management association which is a member of IPMA. If there is no Member Association in a country, member-

ship is available with existing Member Associations and the certification can be done with an existing Certifica-

tion Body.

The benefits of membership include:

• Extensive networking opportunities

• Promotion and support for conferences

• Panels and workshops for exchange of experience

• Globally recognised certification of individuals and organisations

• Project Excellence Award

• Young Crew innovative activities

• Participation in international research and development of standards

• Registration of education programmes and training courses

• Bi-monthly International Journal and Quarterly Newsletter

• Reduced entry fee for events

The customers can use the IPMA Certifiation as an integrated services system addressing the project, pro-

gramme and project portfolio management competence of individuals, project teams and organisations. The

general competence structure is shown in the IPMA Delta® model�

Individuals can use the IPMA Four Level Certification since the year 1998 for demonstrating and developing

their competence; since a few years, the PM consultants can use the Two Level Certification for the same

purpose.

Project teams can measure their performance with the IPMA Excellence Award model and can be recognized

since the year 2002 with national and international awards.

Organisations can evaluate and benchmark their competence since the year 2010, also through an indepen-

dent third party assessment with IPMA Delta®.

The usage of the IPMA® certification system is the subject of Agreements between IPMA and a member

association with its Certification Body.

The content addressed by the competence certification of the Certification Bodies is published in the IPMA

Competence Baselines

• the IPMA Competence Baseline (IPMA ICB®), Version 3.0 (June 2006),

• the IPMA® Competence Baseline for PM Consultants (ICBC), Version 1.0 (June 2011)

• and the IPMA® Competence Baseline for Organisations, planned for 2013

The Competence Baselines are the detailed framework for the fundamental terms, tasks, practices, skills,

roles, attitudes, management processes, methods, techniques and tools that are commonly used in project,

programme and portfolio management. They also refer to advanced knowledge and innovative and advanced

practices used, where appropriate.

The common regulations and guidelines in IPMA as well as the conditions for the validation of the Certification

Bodies by IPMA are described in the IPMA certification system documentation. The organisation, the

procedures and the forms are described in the national documentation of the Certification Body.


IPMA Four Level Certification

On June 14, 1998 in Ljubljana, Slovenia, the IPMA Council of Delegates confirmed the establishment of IPMA’s

universal four level system (4-L-C) which was approved on February 28, 1998 in Bled. The certification in

project, programme and portfolio management was then realised by the certification bodies of the Member

Associations.

The certification schemes and systems of the certification bodies (as defined in the ISO/IEC standard

17024) shall be a great incentive for the project, programme and project portfolio managers and the mem-

bers of the project management teams (i.e. the project management personnel) to

• expand and improve their technical, behavioural and contextual PM competence

• continue their education and experience in PM

• improve the quality of PM

• last but not least – achieve the project, programme and portfolio objectives better.

The benefits of this certification are

• for the project management personnel:

an internationally acknowledged certificate of their PM competence

• for the suppliers of project management services:

a demonstration of their employees’ professional competence

• for the customers:

more certainty to get the state-of-the-art services from project management professionals.

The general competence structure for the four levels is shown in the IPMA Competence Baseline (IPMA ICB®)

which includes the description of the PM competence elements and the taxonomy for the assessment of the

project management personnel.

The main requirements for each level are derived from typical activities, responsibilities and requirements from

practice.

• IPMA Level A® Certified Projects Director

Shall be able to manage complex portfolios or programmes.

• IPMA Level B® Certified Senior Project Manager

Shall be able to manage complex projects.

• IPMA Level C® Certified Project Manager

Shall be able to manage projects with limited complexity and / or to assist the manager

of a complex project in all competence elements of project management.

• IPMA Level D® Certified Project Management Associate

Shall have the knowledge in all competence elements and be able to apply it.

Contextualcompetences

Technicalcompetences

Behaviouralcompetences


The levels are not restrained to hierarchical thinking. A project management specialist on the IPMA Level D®

may be, apart from his fundamental knowledge in project management, a highly qualified, experienced and

recognised expert in a special field. On each level most professional work can be done for the respective tasks

and decisions, in a local or regional or national or in an international context.

The levels are suitable for career track and maturity models as well as for personnel development.

The IPMA Level D® represents the requirements of the professional associations for project management

knowledge provided by the education and training in project management for its use in practice.

The certificate holders provide periodic evidence of their competence maintenance and development in pro-

ject, programme and portfolio management. The recertification process evaluates their professional activities

and continuing professional development.

PM Consultant Certification

To fulfil the certification needs of PM Consultants, IPMA® decided to extend the Four Level Certification (4-L-C)

system by a Two-Level Certification for PM Consultants

• IPMA PMC Certified Project Management Consultant

A Project Management Consultant is qualified to work on consulting assignments at project level, including

its context.

• IPMA PPMC Certified Programme and Portfolio Management Consultant

A Programme and Portfolio Management Consultant is qualified to work on a PM strategic, organisation and

strategy implementation level consulting assignment (Executive level, Project Portfolio or Programme

Responsible, PM Responsible) and leads a team of PM Consultants.

For defining the requirements for PM Consultants it was necessary to align their activity profile with the profile

for the Management Consultants and the profile for the Project, Programme and Portfolio Managers. The

similarities of and differences between the roles of the Project, Programme and Portfolio Manager (PM, PPM),

the Management Consultant (MC), and the PM Consultant (PMC, PPMC) as well as the overlapping is described

in the ICBC.

For the certification of PM Consultants, IPMA extended in 2010 the ICB by the 14 competence elements of

the ICBC.

The Four Level Certification for PM professionals and the Two Level Certification for PM consultants (both for

assessing individuals) is complemented by

• the IPMA Excellence Award model for assessing projects and project teams

• the IPMA Delta® for assessing organisations

to the IPMA integrated services system for project, programme and portfolio management.

IPMA Delta® Certification

The Organisational Competence Baseline adds a new dimension to the world of projects, programmes and

project portfolios, the perspective of organisational competence in project management. It perceives

projects as an integral part of an organisation. An organisation – as social system – needs to build up com-

petences for managing the multitude of projects. The tasks are: To develop the organisational competence in

project management, to build on the organisation´s mission, vision and strategy and to achieve the desired

results.

The organisations are distinguished as standard, complex or large, complex and large and by their sector of

the economy.

This competence can be characterized with the following classes:

Initial: The achievements of Project Management are at a personal level.

There are individuals who perform well, but performance is coincidental.

The organisation has no formal PM standards, structures and processes in place.

Defined: There are partially defined PM standards, structures and processes

in place which are partially applied in the organisation.

Standardised: There are fully defined PM standards, structures and processes

in place which are mostly applied throughout the organization.

Managed: There are fully defined PM standards, structures and processes

in place which are fully applied throughout the organisation, which the

Management actively controls.

Optimising: There are fully defined PM standards, structures and processes

in place which are fully applied throughout the organisation, which the

Management actively controls and continuously develops.

For the IPMA Delta certification, the following competence elements can be used:

1 Mission, vision & strategy

2 Effectiveness & efficiency

3 Organisation

4 Culture

5 Leadership & communication

6 Development

7 PM decision making

8 Project management processes

9 Programme management processes
