About International Project Management Association

IPMA is the world’s first project management association, founded in 1965. IPMA is a Federation consisting of a network of 70 Member Associations (MAs). IPMA MAs develop project management competences in their geographic areas of influence, interacting with and developing relationships with professionals, corporations, government agencies, universities, and colleges, as well as training organizations and consulting companies.
The International Project Management Association (IPMA) is a Federation of 70 Member Associations (MAs) all around the world. The MAs organize their own research and exchange activities to meet the needs of members in their respective context. However, the value of being a member of IPMA has always been to engage with peers in other countries and exchange ideas on how to advance the discipline and learning from each other.

IPMA has spread from Europe to Asia, Africa, the Middle East, Australia, North and South America as well as Australia and New Zealand. The demand for our products and services and the number of our Member Associations is steadily growing. Through IPMA, project management practitioners from all cultures and all parts of the world can network, share ideas, and move our practice and our stakeholders forward through effective collaboration and cooperation.
