I have my PMP. Its not just about the classes and the test, its about having years of demonstratable experience that you can have referrenced by other companies. Some of your experience has to be with outside companies, not just inside projects.

Graduated with a BS in Criminology.

Worked as a Corrections Officer for a year during my senior year.

Moved to NJ and went to work for a software company to get white collar experience before applying to Federal Law Enforcement agencies.

Decided a few years ago that white collar experience (and hours, salary, danger level) trumps federal law enforcement dreams.

So I started down the path of doing what I went to school for be ended up changing.
