Solution

PMI certifications are professional certifications issued by the Project Management Institute. They are important because the certification ensures that project management professionals are competent to meet the demands of different projects in this global economy.

PMI standards are the minimum criteria that a professional should meet who has a degree. That the standards are met are ensured through the requirement that the candidate has a required degree and required hours of leading/directing projects. The standards are developed by practitioners.
