The Certified Software Project Manager

The Certified Software Project Manager (CSPM) is a gold-standard certification accredited by the Global Academy of Finance and Management ®. This credential is for individuals with skills and experience in design, development, and implementation of software projects including planning, coordinating, and managing all change management activities related to an organization’s software applications to keep businesses running smoothly. To become a CSPM-Certified professional, you need to know both the project management life cycle (PMLC) and the software development life cycle (SDLC) methodologies. This book addresses the inputs, processes and the expected deliverables associated with each phase of the SDLC and PMLC. It is advisable to read the project management chapters first because there are other components of an information technology project that you need to manage where the tools and processes to manage them are not available in SDLC. That is why an experienced Software Project Manager must know both SDLC and PMLC methodologies. CSPM-Certified professionals are experienced in the design, development, testing, and implementation of software applications, project management, change management, project quality management, project stakeholder management, and possess organizational leadership and teamwork collaboration skills. Who should read this book? Anyone with the required qualifications and the necessary experience associated with software development project management should consider getting certified as a Certified Software Project Manager by reading this book. The processes to get certified are made simpler by following the instructions described in this book.
