After passing the PMI-ACP exam …
[For PMI-ACP® computer based test (CBT)] After 3 hours of finishing and checking the 120 PMI-ACP® exam questions with your full attention, you will be presented with a blank screen after clicking the “End Exam” button. Don’t worry, this is just an indication that the PMI server is checking and computing your score for the PMI-ACP® exam (not a computer error). But before you get your PMI-ACP® exam results, you will be asked to fill in a survey about your PMI-ACP® exam experience and the performance of the exam centre staff.
Afterwards, a congratulation message will appear on the computer screen if you have passed the PMI-ACP® exam. This is the very moment you are “conferred” the PMI-ACP® credential. Clicking the “confirm” button will lead you to another page showing your “proficiency” levels on the domains tested on the PMI-ACP® exam. You can then click the “confirm” button again to log out of the exam session and walk out of the exam room.
The exam centre staff will print you the PMI-ACP® exam report with your overall performance in the exam (pass or fail) proficiency levels for the domains. Do make sure that there is an exam centre stamp on the report to indicate its authenticity. You must keep the exam report till your PMI-ACP® certificate arrives as the only proof of your PMI-ACP® credential. (Though it is rare, there are reported cases that PMI server did not register the exam performance of the candidate and the candidate needed to appeal to PMI to get the PMI-ACP® certificate.)

Hi, my name is Edward Chung, PMP, PMI-ACP®, ITIL® Foundation. Like most of us, I am a working professional pursuing career advancements through Certifications. As I am having a full-time job and a family with 3 kids, I need to pursue professional certifications in the most effective way (i.e. with the least amount of time). I share my exam tips here in the hope of helping fellow Certification aspirants!
With the new 2021 PMP Examination having the Agile content, Is it safe to sit for PMI-ACP exam with the studied material for PMP? I’m giving my PMP in 2 weeks.
If you have already studied for the PMI-ACP, I am sure your Agile knowledge is enough for the PMP Exam. Wish you luck!
Hey Edward, Your materials here were really helpful to passing the PMI ACP exam.
Congratulations! So glad you will my sharing useful to you. Please share with your friends if they need to take the exam. Thanks!
Inspiring site…
Just passed and considering adding the certification acronym to my business cards and unsure as to which is correct “PMI-ACP” or “ACP”?
Congratulations! PMI-ACP should be the proper abbreviation.
Hi Edward, Your site is really helpful and a very good resource for PMI-ACP study. I cleared my ACP exam yesterday only as ‘Above Target’ and a BIG thank you for the stuff that you have put together and the way you have managed it.
Congratulations on your excellent results! Thanks for your compliments.
Thank you for all the useful info. posted in your blog. I cleared the PMI-ACP exam today with good results and I find this website extremely helpful.
Congratulations! You did it! Would you like to share your successful exam lessons learned with us? Thanks!
Hi Edward!
I would like you for such great resource. It really helped me a lot. To be honest I registered to the exam only 1 month prior the test itself. First week it was daily study of different web resources and 2 weeks of high volume on work so I didn’t had a chance to prepare enough. and only 3 days prior exam I studied all your free domain descriptions and it really helped me lot. Not to misinform other candidates I had some practicale experience and 2 Live training, so it’s not so easy to pass the exam. P.S. Today I’ve received my test results with “Pass” result and I’m really glad ).
One more time Edward for https://edward-designer.com 🙂
Congratulations! Your efforts paid off. It is my humble hope to be able to offer some assistance to fellow PMI-ACP aspirants. I am glad that you think so.
Please help to support the website by telling your friends/colleagues who may find it useful. Thanks in advance!
Hi John,
Congratulates on passing the PMI-ACP exam! I got to know at least 2 PMI-ACP candidates who have got Proficient in the exam after 15 Sep.
I took the PMI ACP exam on 6th Nov and I got Passed. However, all my proficiency level displayed “Moderate Proficiency”, I just wished to know if anyone after 15 Sep (new sylabbus) got “Proficiency”. What I have heard is PMI collects the data from the users choice and marks as the right answer, in doing so, is PMI not having enough data to with new syllabus to announce any candidate as Proficient?
I took the exam on October 25th., and passed it.
As of today, I neither received an email from PMI reflecting that I had passed the course, nor is it showing on the registry of PMI.
What to do? Please help.
Thank you
I took the exam on Sept. 25, 2015, and had to wait until Oct. 22, 2015, to get the results. I PASSED!!!! But that was a long, nerve-wracking wait but well worth it!
Congratulations Deborah! You should be very proud of yourself!
Thank you and I will be glad to write something about my study journey.
The results for anyone taking the exam after Oct 15, 2015 will be available immediately after finishing the exam. That is, there will be a congratulatory screen, and there will be a score report with proficiency levels. The certificate should arrive in 6 to 8 weeks
Hi Terrence,
Thanks for making the point clearer. Yes, PMI-ACP exam takers will be able to know whether they can pass the exam or not after submitting the exam (and after answering the survey). They will be able to add the PMI-ACP title after they have passed immediately. But they will still need to wait 6 to 8 weeks to receive the printed PMI-ACP certificate.
Greetings,
Thank you for the info on this blog. I have a question if I may ……. someone just took the test yesterday and ended up with a message stating that the exam result will be email to her on or before October 21st ……. I was under the impression that the results are immediate just like any other PMI exam.
The letter she got from Prometric center stated ” Please note, official score results will not be issued immediately for this exam”
Do you have an input ??
BR,
Fares
Thanks for your comment. Since the PMI-ACP Exam was changed on 15 July 2015, the new PMI-ACP exam that is administered between 15 July and 14 October will have the exam scores delivered on or before 22 October 2015. PMI is obviously doing some statistically adjustment to the passing score, etc. during this period so that the difficulty of the new PMI-ACP Exam will be on par with the previous one.
After this trial period, the PMI-ACP Exam score will be delivered immediately after pressing the submit button.
