Project Management Professional Exam Cost

405 USD for PMI members / 555 USD for non-members

The exam fee is the published figure above. Budget 240 minutes of exam time, plus the revision time you need for 3 domains. The vendor retake terms vary, so confirm whether a second attempt is charged separately before you budget.

Retake terms for the Project Management Professional are set by Project Management Institute and are not included in the figure above. Check the official exam page before scheduling, because the waiting period is what usually costs you time, not the fee.

The published price for the Project Management Professional does not list a voucher. Discounts usually arrive through employer sponsorship or training budgets rather than from the vendor directly, so check with your employer before paying full price.

No. The exam fee is paid to Project Management Institute and covers the exam itself. Certilum is a separate product: 180 practice questions for this certification, tagged to the official domains, with a difficulty score of 2.3/10.

Begin with the PMBOK Guide and Agile Practice Guide. Use process chart memorization and scenario-based practice exams to bridge theory and application. Focus on the differences between predictive and adaptive life cycles. Join study groups and use online simulators that replicate the exam interface.
