PRINCE2 is a process-based approach for project management, providing an easily tailored and scaleable project management methodology for the management of all types of projects. The method is the de-facto standard for project management in the UK and is practiced worldwide.

CompTIA Project+™ is a globally recognized project management certification that provides validation of fundamental project management skills. It covers the entire project life cycle from initiation and planning through execution, acceptance, support and closure. Unlike some project management certifications, CompTIA Project+ can be acquired in a quick and cost-effective manner. There are no prerequisites, and candidates are not required to submit an application or complete additional hours of continuing education.

In 2007, Project Management Institute released a new credential: PgMP - Program Management Professional, credential designed to demonstrate project and program management skills.

Project Management Institute has recently created a new credential: PMI-SP - PMI Scheduling Professional (PMI–SP)^SM. One of the areas of project management that is critical to the overall project success is project execution. No matter how well the project is planned and how much in advance, if the execution is poor, the project failure is imminent.
