For almost ten years, Rome Business School has been an accredited partner of the Project Management Institute (PMI), first as a Registered Education Provider (since 2017) and, since 2021, as an Authorized Training Partner.
This collaboration positions the Business School among the pioneering institutions in Italy and confirms its commitment to aligning with and promoting PMI’s innovative approach to project management.
Being an Authorized Training Partner means using official PMI materials only, delivering training through certified instructors, and ensuring full compliance with international standards.
Rome Business School programs prepare students for certifications such as PMP® (Project Management Professional), the global benchmark for experienced project leaders, CAPM®, designed for professionals starting their Project Management careers, and PMI-ACP®, dedicated to Agile practitioners.

Rome Business School relies on an international faculty composed of senior professionals recognized in the Project Management field, including Carmine Pagano, Senior Director at NTT DATA Italy, Head of Enterprise Agility and Program Governance, President of the PMI Central Italy Chapter, and certified Agile Transformation Coach, and Marino Lizza, Founder and CEO of WeCanJob, a high-tech company specializing in labor market analysis, and Team and Project Leader at Nuovi Lavori.
Most faculty members have over 25 years of professional experience, and approximately 70% have held executive roles, bringing senior-level Project Management and operational expertise into the classroom.
Their backgrounds span business, law, organizational development, telecommunications, and digital transformation, with the goal of applying different Project Management methodologies (Agile, SAFe, Waterfall) through real simulations and case studies.
Training is strongly practice-oriented and includes labs, simulations, workshops, and direct interaction with company managers. From the first days, students take part in welcome sessions with Oracle and Enel, business case studies with Google, IBM, and PwC, company visits to KPMG and TIM, and access to Global Trends Labs focused on emerging markets and trends with Deloitte.
The program is further enriched by the opportunity to participate in international study weeks in 14 destinations, including Silicon Valley, London, Paris, Barcelona, China, Qatar, and Lagos.
To strengthen the impact of the Master’s programs, Rome Business School Career Services support access to career paths such as Project Manager, Agile Product Owner, Chief Operations Officer, Risk Analyst, Scrum Master Coordinator, and Business Process Manager.
In 2024 alone, Career Services managed 7,894 job opportunities through a network of 1,403 partner companies, contributing to a 98% placement rate. Project Management graduates often take on higher-responsibility roles within one year of graduation, with an average salary increase of 34%.
“Choosing RBS and this Master was a challenging but extremely rewarding decision. I was looking for a program that combined PMP preparation with an international academic experience, and RBS proved to be the perfect choice,” says an RBS alumnus, now a Quality Assurance Analyst at Accenture Belgium.
