FAQ
What is the CompTIA Project+ certification?

CompTIA Project+ (PK0-005) is an international IT-oriented project management certification. It validates mastery of the project lifecycle, team management, communication, risks and methods (predictive, agile, hybrid) without being tied to a single framework.

What is the difference between CompTIA Project+ and PMP or PRINCE2?

PMP (PMI) has stricter prerequisites and is widely recognised internationally. PRINCE2 is a structured method. Project+ is more accessible, pragmatic, IT-oriented and has no strict prerequisites, ideal for formalising your practices. MFE-IT helps you choose according to your background.

Is the Project+ exam included in the course?

Yes. Our CompTIA Project+ certification course includes sitting the official PK0-005 exam, with voucher and logistics included.

Does the course cover the project lifecycle, planning, budget and stakeholder management?

Yes. The programme covers project management fundamentals: lifecycle and phases, planning (schedule, costs, resources), risk and stakeholder management, communication and project documentation.

What is the difference between CompTIA Project+ and PMP or PRINCE2?

Project+ validates project management fundamentals with no heavy experience prerequisite, across all sectors. PMP (PMI) and PRINCE2 are more advanced certifications, requiring more experience and methodological formalism.

How long does it take to prepare for the Project+ certification?

Our Project+ course runs over 5 days (35 hours) in a fully tailored format. This volume covers all exam domains with case studies and simulations.
