What is ACP Agile Project Management Qualification Examination?
ACP (Chinese name for professional certification of agile project management) is an agile practitioner qualification certification initiated by American Project Management Institute (PMI), which strictly evaluates whether a project manager has high-quality knowledge and skills.

PMI survey shows that in the process of project implementation, because the demand is constantly changing, if the thinking mode of "plan first and then act" is still implemented, then the project cannot be promoted. Based on this situation, PMI launched PMI-ACP certification on 20 1 1, aiming at enabling project managers to adopt agile methods to cope with the ever-changing project requirements and have the quality and ability to respond quickly.
