Project Management Professional (PMP) and Agile Certified Practitioner (PMI-ACP) certifications are two popular options for project managers who want to take their careers to the next level. While the PMP certification and the PMI-ACP certification are both earned after passing an exam, the primary difference between the two is the methods on which they focus.
