After passing the PMP exam, a thought may come to mind. Should you go for the PMI-RMP certification? And does it have any value?
Often I receive this query from professionals who have recently passed PMPs. This is a natural question because the PMI-RMP is the next sought after certification from the PMI; they want to achieve it.
可能还有另一个原因。
You have beenpreparing for the PMP exam。您通过它,释放压力,您对此不满意。通过PMP考试是一个适合您的项目。现在,您可以自由并正在寻找另一个项目,因此您正在考虑申请PMI-RMP考试。
I wouldn’t suggest you go for this certification just for the sake of attaining it.
There is another category of aspirants who did not pass the PMP exam and are only interested in the PMI-RMP certification because of their job requirements.
Should I go for the PMI-RMP certification exam?
You should go for this certification if you are involved inrisk managementand have a genuine interest. This certification will improve your performance and increase your career prospects.
如果您参与项目管理,并且有兴趣遵循风险管理职业,则还可以获得此认证。
该认证在行业中有价值吗?
Yes, this is a valued certification in the industry, and I have witnessed it. I received many more interview calls when I updated my CV with the PMI-RMP credential.
A search on any job portal for a risk management position will show you that many employers have recommended this credential and some have made it mandatory. This shows the value of this certification.
几年前,PMP认证持有者是rare and organizations were happy just to have them. These days, organizations are becoming more cautious. Project failure is a very costly affair, and they want to avoid it at all costs. Therefore, they prefer PMI-RMP certification holders over non-PMI-RMP certification holders to manage risks in their projects.
I hope I have answered your queries and now you are in a better position to decide whether you should get the PMI-RMP certification or not.
The following information will help you understand the process if you are interested in the PMI-RMP certification.
Eligibility
You should have 4,500 hours of project risk management experience if you hold a secondary degree (high school diploma or equivalent), and you must attend 40 hours of formal project risk management training.
You should have 3,000 hours of project risk management experience if you hold a four-year degree (bachelor’s degree or equivalent), and you must attend 30 hours of formal project risk management training.
Exam Fee
PMI成员的考试费为520美元,非会员的考试费用为670美元。
The PMI membership fee is 139 USD, so if you become a member of PMI and apply for the PMI-RMP exam, you will save 11 USD. Therefore, I suggest you get aPMI会员资格在申请考试之前并利用其提供的许多好处。
Exam
The PMI-RMP exam consists of170 multiple-choice questions,包括20个预测试问题。这些预测试问题没有添加到您的结果中,而是用于检查未来考试问题的有效性。由于您无法区分这些问题,因此您应该准备回答所有170个问题。
The time allotted for the exam is 3.5 hours, and there is no scheduled break. You can take a break but the time is included in your exam duration.
CCR Cycle
The PMI-RMP certificate is valid for three years. You will have to earn 30 PDUs in risk management topics to renew it for another three years.
Benefits of a PMI-RMP Certification
According to the PMI’s Pulse of the Profession edition 2015 findings:
83% percent of organizations that are high performers in project management practice risk management frequently while just 49% of low performers do so. The practice contributes to a handsome payoff: high performers meet their goals 2.5 times more often and waste 13 times less money than low performers.

This certification helps organizations perform better. It makes them proactive in managing risks, improves the control of projects, minimizes surprises and losses, and improves organizational resilience. It improves stakeholders’ confidence and trust in you and your组织。
Summary
The PMI-RMP certification is the most renowned certification in risk management, and possessing it validates your experience and knowledge. This certification enhances your skills and makes you more employable. I recommend you apply for the PMI-RMP certification if you are involved with risk management.

您是否参与了风险管理并考虑PMI-RMP认证?请在评论部分中分享您的想法。
嗨,我只想知道我应该阅读整个PMBOK以通过PMI RMP考试还是PMI只有RMP指南就足够了吗?我的意思是,在考试中是否有与其他知识领域有关的问题?
You should read the complete PMBOK Guide with more focus on Risk related topics.
Are you a PMP?
您投资了多少时间准备考试?您是否找到了风险管理的工作空缺?它使您受益吗?与PMP有何不同?
It is different from the PMP as the focus is on risk management. It is highly valued, after passing the exam, I updated my resume on some job portals and started getting many calls and so I had deactivated my account.
Hi …. the blog is really informative. The PMI-RMP question bank was last updated in Jan 2017; also its based on the PMBOK 5. Can you please let me know when would the latest version be available which I assume would be based on PMBOK 6?
When the exam will shift to the new version, I will also update my PMI-RMP Question Bank.
To date, there is no news from the PMI that when they will change the exam.
This is so helpful! I see there are some differences of opinion as to which exam is harder, PMP or RMP. If you’ve recently taken the PMP shouldn’t the learning curve and thus study time for RMP be less? Is RMP more quantitatively based, more situational/scenario based than PMP, or about the same?
谢谢您的网站Fahad。它在PMP方面对我有很大帮助,接下来我很高兴进入RMP!
RMP is comparatively tougher than the PMP. Prepare well for the exam.
Good luck.
Dear Fahad,
I’m PMP certified and I passed my RMP exam yesterday, I would really thank you for two points :
你的简单和直接的方式来解释多云points of management.
2-I did practice many questions on RMP and I found that yours are the nearest to the exam topic and you’ll be featured if you add more questions related to the “Critical Succes Factors of the Practice Standard for Risk Management”
My question is:
By passing my RMP exam Can I claim for PMP PDU’s? and for how many PDU’s?
Thanks Ahmad for your comment and I will surely implement your suggestions in the next update.
Yes you can claim to full PDUs.
我准备的考试策略: -
首先,我研究了PMBOK第五版(有关股权持有人管理,沟通,质量和采购管理的更多内容)
第二,我研究了丽塔·穆尔卡希(Rita Mulcahy)第二版风险管理书籍
Third I practised the Mock Tests from U certify website and PDF RMP Sample tests by Fahad
How I Crack the Exam:
首先,我尝试了花费更少的时间,我可以正确回答的问题(我跳过了长度的场景和有问题的问题)
其次,我尝试了跳过的漫长而有问题的问题,我可以正确回答100%。
Third I attempted the remaining questions which I am not sure and I may answer 50% or 0 %probability correctly.
Fourth I took a break for 10 min and reviewed/double checked the questions which I answered correctly.
Be honest I skipped around 5 to 6 questions related to problematic which I felt difficult for me(related to probability distribution/latin hyercube).
I attempted remaining problematic questions like related to PERT Technique, quantitative analysis(EMV), Cost and Schedule performance Index.
恭喜Muneswara通过PMI-RMP考试,并感谢您分享您的课程

Congratulations Deevan on passing the PMI-RMP exam.
嗨Deevan,
I took the PMI-RMP a few days ago and didn’t pass. I took the prep course with a company who utilized obselete materials which didn’t cover a lot of the questions on the exam which involver Latin Hypercube, Risk Manager responsibilities, Probability distribution etc. I am in the process of purchasing the two books you suggested and need to confirm that these topics are covered before I purchase them. Can you please confirm?? Also the books I found say they were written in 2005. Is this the same book you purchased? Awaiting you response. Thanks in advance.
Hi Fellows ,,, I passed the PMP exam and I wish to take the risk management exam too but I have a question ,,, I never had dedicated 3000 hrs of risk management ,, what should I do? just wait till I can have these hours? Thanks and all the best
You cannot apply for the PMI-RMP exam until you have required experience. Get the experience then apply for it.
你好法哈德;
您能解释一下如何通过2015年12月发布的新CCR计划阅读书籍的PDU吗?
Thank you.
I did not report it in new CCR Cycle, but I believe that the procedure will be the same. Note down the time invested and identify the side of triangle and you will be good to go.
