About NICPP

The National Institute of Chartered Program & Project Professionals (NICPP) is a joint initiative by NITI Aayog and Quality Council of India (QCI) to establish and promote best practices in program and project management as a profession in India. The institute is housed in QCI and aims to enhance capacity development in project execution, particularly in crucial infrastructure domains such as power, transportation, ports, smart cities, digital infrastructure, irrigation and social infrastructure.

InBoK

Developed as the ultimate Indian standard for program and project management of infrastructure projects, the Indian Infrastructure Body of Knowledge (InBoK) is a unique and infrastructure-focused technical baseline based on program and project management practices in India.

NICPP Certifications

NICPP offers a comprehensive 5-Level Certification in program and project management. Each level of the certification program represents a combination of competence and experience in the domain. Levels 0, I, and II of the certification curriculum focus primarily on Program Management, while levels III and IV place greater emphasis on Project Management. This progression mirrors the typical journey of a professional in the field.

NPMPF
