Eh, PMP needs degree and like 4500 hours of managing projects then only can take, no? that's like 1.5-2.5 years.
*
it's 4,500 non overlapping hour's. You must be realistic as well to include annual leave, public holidays & weekends.
And daily realistically 8 hours.

So let's say 1 year left only 365 - 130 = 235

Hours = 235 x 8 = 1880

So 4500/1880 ~ 2.5 years onwards
