The iSQI Certified Professional for Project Management program started in March 2003 with a four-day training "Basics of Project Management", including a final "Foundation Level" examination. Additional components, building up on the Foundation Level certificate, with advanced content are currently in development.

To ensure a consistently high quality, every training is organized and carried out either by iSQI itself or by a company accredited by iSQI.

The iSQI Certified Professional for Project Management course is concluded by an examination on the basics of project management as they are taught in the course. After successful examination the participant receives the iSQI Certified Professional for Project Management certificate.
