Overview
Humber’s Project Management graduate certificate program will prepare you to manage complex projects and programs. Given the recognition that project management skills and competencies have to the success of all organizations, this program attracts candidates from diverse backgrounds and industries whether public, private or not-for-profit sectors.
In just two semesters, you will learn the skills needed to move a project through conceptualization, initiation, planning, execution, control and closing. The curriculum is designed in collaboration with industry and closely aligned to the Project Management Institute’s Project Management Body of Knowledge (PMBOK), as well as international best practices.

Students also learn about trends in project management including cutting edge technology, the adaptive/agile approaches to project management and electives in areas such as the public sector, information technology, construction and strategic portfolio management.
Career opportunities
PMI’s PM NETWORK magazine has reported that the sectors to watch for project management hiring opportunities are technology, global infrastructure, energy, financial services and health care. As well, the Project Management Institute (PMI) stated that project-based industries could be at risk due to the lack of skilled project managers, based on a study conducted by The Anderson Economic Group (AEG). Between the years 2010 and 2020, an estimated 15.7 million new project management jobs will be added globally, reaching an economic impact of over $18 trillion across seven project-intensive industries.
Whatever sector you want to work in, the demand for leaders and team members with project management skills and competencies is growing. Our program has been designed to help everyone, from the new graduate to the experienced professional, looking to acquire this highly regarded and sought-after skillset.
