Question formats
CompTIA Project+ (PK0-005) is an entry-to-intermediate level certification that validates the knowledge needed to manage small-to-medium IT projects throughout their lifecycle. It covers project initiation, planning, execution, change management, and communication. Project+ is vendor-neutral and does not require the work experience needed for PMP, making it accessible to early-career professionals and those transitioning into project management roles. It is a single-exam certification recognised by employers across both IT and business domains.
Official prerequisite
None — no formal prerequisites
Recommended experience
6–12 months of experience working on or supporting projects; familiarity with basic IT concepts
Early-career professionals or IT staff who manage or participate in projects and want a recognised project management credential without the PMP experience requirement
Should you skip this exam?
If you have 3+ years of project management experience, the PMP or PRINCE2 Practitioner will carry significantly more weight with employers
Courseiva study tip
Focus on the project lifecycle phases and change management procedures; understanding terminology from the PMBOK guide will help even though this is not a PMI exam

What certification to take next
The PK0-005 exam costs $239 USD per attempt. This is the same price as CompTIA Data+ and less than Security+ or Cloud+.
You need a scaled score of 710 out of 900 to pass the CompTIA Project+ PK0-005 exam.
The exam has a maximum of 95 questions to be answered within 90 minutes.
Project+ covers project initiation and governance, project planning, project execution and change control, communication and change management, and project closure.
Project+ has no experience requirements and is entry-level, while PMP requires 36–60 months of project leadership experience and 35 hours of education. Project+ is a stepping stone towards PMP or CAPM.
Project+ is valid for 3 years. Renewal is through CompTIA's CE programme by earning 30 CEUs or passing a higher-level CompTIA exam.
Project+ is recognised primarily in IT-adjacent project management roles. For broader project management careers, PMP or PRINCE2 tend to be more widely valued, but Project+ is a solid entry point.
