The online project management certificate program at Washington Tech can help prepare learners for supervisory and mid-level management positions involving project management and team management.

The Project Management program is 630  clock hours and offers 15-college credits from a regionally accredited institution.

The Washington Tech Online Undergraduate Certificate in Project Management will give learners an advantage in the marketplace without the need to take residential classes on a college campus. You can complete the project management certificate entirely online, which means you can get a quality, accredited education without interruption to your family, work, and community responsibilities.

In the online project management courses, you will learn to bring projects full cycle from early planning, development to completion.

  • Manage a project through all phases of the project's life cycle
  • Develop and implement plans to manage information systems projects, using Microsoft Project to develop schedules and related components
  • Apply best practices to manage complex projects with responsiveness and adaptability
  • Use a proven problem-solving framework to generate potential solutions for effective decision making

PMN-101  Principles of Management
PMN-102  Organizational Behavior
PMN-103  Foundations of Project Management 1

This certificate may appeal to those who want to:

The project management industry is predicted to be increasing in demand, with an overall positive career outlook for project management professionals. The Project Management Institute reports extraordinarily positive job outlook for skilled project professionals. This points to a rising need for project management professionals globally, as well as a larger portion of existing professional talent pool reaching retirement age. PMI estimates employers will need 87.7 million individuals working in project management-oriented roles by the year 2027.

Industries with the highest levels of expected project management job growth include:

  • Healthcare (expected 17% growth in project management jobs through 2027)
  • Manufacturing and construction
  • Information services and publishing
  • Finance and insurance
  • Management and professional services
  • Utilities and oil and gas

The US Bureau of Labor Statistics does not collect data on project management positions (as they often fall under other types of industry-specific managers), but USBLS does report faster than average growth for several related positions. Employment of computer and information systems managers, for example, is projected to grow 12% from 2016 through 2026 (an increase of approximately 44,200 jobs) BLS projects that employment of construction managers will grow by 11% from 2016 through 2026, resulting in approximately an additional 44,800 positions, leading to a positive job outlook in these project management-oriented roles.
