Competence profiles, certification levels and functions in the project management and project support environment / druk 2

Developments in the project management field are ongoing. This professional fieldcontinuously broadens and becomes profounder. Therefore, IPMA has extended itsattention from project management to program management, portfolio management andproject support (PMO).This has made manifest the need for a reference model in which the various functions andcorresponding competences and the relations between them are presented. Not only for HRmanagers, but also for project and program managers and PMO heads.In the first edition of this book, attention was given to the regular functions in the projectmanagement field, as they are applied in the IPMA 4-level system. With the publication ofthis second edition, the wish has been realized to make a complete function building for theproject management field available.The second edition of this book does justice to PMO professionals' needs for recognitionand appreciation of their added value for projects, programs and portfolios. This is a publication of IPMA-NL.
