The year began with a huge effort to ensure that all processes, guidance and assessors were ready for the 16 May launch of the Register of Chartered Project Professionals. Since then a dedicated team has supported 768 applicants through the ChPP process, with 495 awards by the end of March across 40 sectors. An assessor “was left with a feeling of really belonging to something special for the future of our profession”.

ThestandardispartofastrategyaimedatincreasingtakeupofAPM’squalificationsandstandards.We’redeepeningChPPbydevelopingnewrecognisedassessments,includingAPMRegisteredProjectProfessional(RPP)–route2–APMPractitionerQualification(PQ)andAPMProjectProfessionalQualification(PPQ)–bothroute1–andthiswillincludetheopportunityforhighereducationinstitutions,employersandotherprofessionalbodiestobecomearecognisedassessor.Furtherrecognisedassessmentswillgolivethroughout2019.

Creating an inclusive profession; APM as a chartered body – Supporting the journey of chartered professionalsandRelate, democratise, transform – opening doors to project management for young people.

The register raises awareness of APM’s professional standards. Our survey, Taking a Seat at the Table found that 78 per cent of employers are more likely to recruit a project manager with chartered status over one who doesn’t. Eighty-nine per cent believe ChPP has a positive impact on a professional’s employability, while 86 per cent think that a chartered employee adds to a firm’s reputation.

APM now has almost 30,000 individual members and more than 500 organisations participating in the Corporate Partnership programme, making us the largest professional body of its kind in Europe.

Conference attendance is up across the board, most spectacularly at APM Women in Project Management Conference which saw a 48 per cent increase in delegates. Seventy-six per cent of attendees at our Power of the Profession conference in Manchester were new to APM events, and the same percentage said it left them with a ‘very good’ or ‘excellent’ perception of the Association.

Knowledge and research APM:theleadingsourceofknowledgeandinsightsfortheprojectprofession.

Objective

Advance the art, science, theory and practice of project management with an innovative knowledge and research programme.

Next steps

Our ongoing investment in digital and content will help position APM as the principal resource for project delivery. We will continue to invest at least two per cent of commercial revenues in research each year. Planning is underway for a 2020 academic research conference and our global profile will be raised via representation at significant international events. We’ll refine APM Learning, adding international guidance and benchmarks for professional practice.

“TheAPM Body of Knowledgeprovidesabroaderviewofprojectmanagement,fromthestrategiccaseforprojects,todeliveringchangevialinearanditerativelifecycles,tostakeholderengagement.”

March 2019 saw publication of the seventh edition of our flagship publication, the APM Body of Knowledge. Drawing on over 2,000 items of feedback from members, Corporate Partners and government, it provides a broader view of project management, from the strategic case for projects, to delivering change via linear and iterative life cycles, to issues such as leadership and stakeholder engagement.

Organisational innovation APM:promotesthepoweroftheprojectprofessionforgood.

Digital badges, an online, fully-transparent means for members to display their achievements, proved to be an outstandingly-successful new initiative with 43,635 issued between October and March. APM has gained profile too as 17,307 of the branded badges were shared on social media.

Over 30 Corporate Partners wanted their logo to feature in the first edition of Project: You. A new version, including over 50 Corporate Partners, will appear later in 2019, highlighting project management’s role in almost every part of the economy.

APM’s first ever national advertising campaign to raise awareness of the profession ran during April and May 2018. Outdoor advertising reached 3.2m people and prompted 7,124 visits to the website. Analysis of the results led to our follow-on ‘Make Change Happen’ campaign in January 2019.

Targeting25-to34-year-olds,thecampaignwasseen31.4mtimesonFacebook,Instagram,YouTubeandthe Guardianwebsitegeneratingover81,000hitstoAPM’swebsite.
