Advised Skills Reports Rising PMP Certification Enrolment Amid Global Project Management Talent Gap

Sep 29, 2026

The training provider's enrolment results accompany commentary on project management workforce projections published by PMI and the World Economic Forum in 2025

London, United Kingdom, September 29, 2026 -- Advised Skills has recorded increased enrolment across its PMI Authorized PMP Exam Preparation courses. The London-based training provider operates in more than 20 countries. The enrolment trend reflects a broader shift among employers toward certifying existing staff rather than competing externally for project management talent.


The Project Management Institute's (PMI) Global Project Management Talent Gap report, published in May 2025, puts the worldwide project management workforce at 39.6 million in 2025 and projects a potential shortfall of up to 29.8 million professionals by 2035, as demand for project management skills could rise by up to 64% between 2025 and 2035. Advised Skills delivers its PMP preparation through its PMI Authorized PMP Exam Preparation programme, alongside training in PRINCE2, ITIL 4, TOGAF, SAFe and DevOps.


The World Economic Forum's Future of Jobs Report 2025 lists project management among the roles expected to see the strongest net job growth through 2030. Advised Skills provides these programmes as part of its wider corporate training offering for organisations building project delivery capability internally.


Marcin Chmielewski, Deputy Managing Director at Advised Skills, said: "We're seeing more organisations treat PMP certification as a way to close skills gaps internally rather than compete for scarce talent externally. It's often faster and more cost-effective than hiring, and it gives project teams a shared, internationally recognised standard to work from."


Further information on the organisation's accreditation history and training footprint is available on the about Advised Skills page.

Style Edit: 45R’s new knits spotlight texture and Japanese craftsmanship

The appeal of a good knit is often immediate, from the softness against the skin to the reassuring volume and warmth. At 45R, those qualities begin well before a garment takes shape. The Japanese label’s latest selection puts the making process in focus, bringing together airy merino, characterful Shetland wool and the flecked textures of Donegal tweed. Founded in Tokyo in 1977, 45R approaches clothing through monozukuri, or the “art of making”, a philosophy centred on respect for craft and...

O3’s Luca Yang hated studying. So he built 24/7 study cafes to motivate people like him

At 22, Luca Yang was running a small teaching company in New Zealand after quitting a six-figure finance job that he hated. It had humble beginnings, where he tutored English online for A$25 (US$17.55) per hour just to get by. When one of his students got into Oxford, word spread: one student became 50, then 500. By most measures, he had already won the start-up lottery. “It was producing a lot of money, but it wasn’t something I actually loved doing,” says Yang, who was born and raised in...
