Hi, This is a good question and a good switch for career development. To become a project manager (whatever your background is) you need at least basics in project management knowledge and some years of practice. Sounds hard, right? Don't worry you can hack the process in a smart way. A lot of programmers start their career in project management by helping and contributing in one of the project phases (initiation, planning, execution, closure). Once they understand how it works they can apply to become a project manager assistant… but this is a long way. We advise that the programmers choose a technical project management training and certification. Companies respect and trust recognized project management certifications such as Certified Project Manager (CPM) by IIB Council (entry level course), PMP by PMI (requires experience in project management) and more… So we advise you to go and get the necessary knowledge and training, then you will be 100 % ready to become a project manager. Hope we helped you with this answer!
