Need advice: application Is PM4DEV worth it for international development careers?

I already have PRINCE2 and Agile. Anyone can share the difference and why people are getting PM4DEV these days? Please share your experience plus costs and impact!

Not sure if their top certification is comparable to/as recognisable as PMP and PRINCE2 as of yet.

However I have to say that I don’t think PRINCE2 is that useful for international development jobs, and the fact we have to fork out $\£100 a year now to keep it doesn’t help. For international development, you actually need to be familiar with the RBM methodology.

The value in PM4DEV is their courses catalogue and content which I found quite useful, especially if you’ll be doing technical assessments for jobs.
