Standards
aPRO is asapm's unique organizational performance assessment standard. The asapm Performance Rated Organization process either results in certification as a performing organization, or a list of areas to work on to improve PM performance. Contact Tim Jaques, Director of Standards.
Download NCB-USA, the USA's National Competence Baseline. PM Performance results not just from Knowledge, but through application, recognition, and experience. NCB shows the path from Knowledge, through Skills, Attitudes, demonstrated interpersonal behaviors, Competence, and the resulting PM Performance.
