I'd recommend searching for jobs in your area for the industry that you're looking at, and searching specifically for PMP.

I have a similar background and trajectory. I can confidently say that knowing those skills will ABSOLUTELY be useful. I didn’t end up using MS project that much, but excel is always a good bet (practically every org on planet earth uses this extensively). Tableau is great for creating nice dashboards and self service reporting that management just loves to bits. Power platform was an absolute game changer for me personally and a level up for my division. If you get really good with power automate, power apps, and dataverse then you will be quite well positioned with skills. I highly recommend learning the basics of software engineering to really push those skills out for power platform as they make those skills more accessible to folks without coding skills. You don’t need to know how to code, but if you understand the principles and how software is built (front end, back end, and databases) then you will create killer automations and power apps that make your life much easier. Keep it up, you’re on the right track!

Hey, Alvin! Hope all is well. So, I recently graduated high school and I’m currently going into college majoring in business. I’m exploring various career paths but I think becoming a project manager in perhaps the real estate industry would be ideal for me. Now, I want you to know what you would do if you were in my position. Take it that you have no experience, knowledge, or skills going into such career. How would you get started? How will you gain the valuable skills and experience while doing so? If this is too much to ask for I can understand, but any feedback will be greatly appreciated and considered. Thank you!
