Abstract: Abstract This paper presents the evaluation of a cross-university certification system for students in project management. For this purpose, the certification system is briefly described and the evaluation by means of an online survey is explained. The results show that most of the participants of the certification were satisfied with the organization and the structure, the level of difficulty and the contents of the certification. The survey also showed that companies value the certificate when certificate holders apply for jobs. From the results, opportunities for improvement can be derived, such as increasing awareness and providing more information upfront, which can be implemented in the future.
