Access Bank, PMI Offer Nigerian Women 25% Off Project Management Exams

Access Bank's W Initiative has teamed up with the Project Management Institute (PMI) to help more Nigerian women earn internationally recognised project management certifications. Under the partnership, eligible women get discounts on exam fees and on training courses.

Women can get 25% off the exam fees for two PMI certifications. These are the Certified Associate in Project Management (CAPM) and the Project Management Professional (PMP). They can also get up to 50% off exam preparation courses from participating PMI Authorised Training Partners. The course discount runs until December 2026. No end date has been given for the exam fee discount.

Reports say eligible women are existing Access Bank customers or women opening new accounts. They need an active Access Bank account and a W Debit Card. They must also meet PMI's own requirements for the certification they choose. Women who want the discount will go through a registration and verification process.

The partnership was announced by Access Bank and PMI. PMI Sub-Saharan Africa's Managing Director, George Asamani, and Access Bank's Head of Women Banking Team, Nene Kunle-Ogunlusi, spoke on the partnership.

Project management is one of the most sought-after skills in the global job market. The CAPM suits people starting out in project management, while the PMP is for those with more experience. Lower fees could make these certifications easier to reach for more Nigerian women.

Access Bank and PMI have not yet shared a public link or contact details for claiming the discount. Women who are interested should ask Access Bank or a PMI Authorised Training Partner for the steps and for the end date of the exam fee offer.
