How can I become a part time project manager?

The qualifications that you need to become a part-time project manager include knowledge of the industry in which you work, leadership and organizational skills, and the time management abilities to complete your duties within a limited number of hours. A project manager for software development or IT projects needs a degree or equivalent experience in computer science or IT, while employers often seek managers with business, management, finance, or human resources degrees for business or operations-related projects. You can also pursue professional certification. The Project Management Institute offers multiple certifications, including a Project Management Professional (PMP) accreditation.
