Tips on using this forum..

(1) Explain your problem, don't simply post "This isn't working". What were you doing when you faced the problem? What have you tried to resolve - did you look for a solution using "Search" ? Has it happened just once or several times?

(2) It's also good to get feedback when a solution is found, return to the original post to explain how it was resolved so that more people can also use the results.

Thanks a lot for your help mr.Tanveer i think iwill start with the pmi-sp first it seems easier ( too many certificate holders and a shorter exam beside i am working in egypt and actually it is as you  said pmi is more popular) then the PsP.

Certifications from a global institute or authority are always worthy. For planners it’s PMI-SP (not PMP) and PSP. Whatever you go with it’s your decision as per your region and convenience. I am working in the Middle East where PMI is more popular accordingly I decided to go for PMI-SP. Still you can go for PMP as it’s for project managers and worth full.

Cheers - Tanveer
