Wondering if I actually earned the acronym to add behind my name?

[Claire Budd]

I recently earned the "Atlassian Agile Project Management Professional Certificate" from LinkedIn Learning. It was 7+ hours of coursework followed by a timed exam lasting 90 minutes and covering 50 questions. Does this mean I can add "PMP" after my name professionally now? Or are these certificates considered "lite" versions of the real deal?

Hello @Claire Budd 

Welcome to the Atlassian community.

General PMP certification is much larger than just the course offered by Atlassian, so in my opinion, no, you have not achieved the necessary training from just that course to add PMP after your name.

For information on general PMP certification, refer to:

Thanks Trudy! I appreciate the guidance. I wish LinkedIn Learning made that clearer. :)
