Competency Frameworks



Australian Institute of Project Management (AIPM) – Competency Framework


Project Manager Competency Development (PMCD) Framework – Second Edition provides general context for the definition, assessment and development of project manager competency. The framework outlines the key dimensions of project management competency and identifies those competencies that are most likely to impact project manager performance.

Project manager competency consists of three separate dimensions:

Knowledge – what a project manager knows about the application of processes, tools and techniques in project activities

Performance – how a project manager applies project management knowledge to meet project requirements

Personal – how a project manager behaves when performing activities in a project environment

Some thoughts…

Future RTO AIM Certificate IV

and Diploma in Project Management are ‘pure’ PM Qualifications.

Not all RTO’s are keeping as ‘pure’ as AIM.

Look for Practicing Project Managers as trained Facilitators.

Future Employee’s Is a qualified PM really a

‘qualified’ PM? Check any candidates

transcripts to see the content of their Qualification.

Ensure Diploma PM and/or CPPM is mandated on all PD’s.

Align Position Descriptions to a competency framework.
