The '''Association for Project Management''' ('''APM''') promotes the professional disciplines of [[project management]] and [[programme management]] in the UK, where it is the largest professional body of its kind. APM received its Royal Charter in 2017. Note, so far as the courts in England and Wales are concerned, project management is not a specific profession (Pride Valley Foods Ltd. v Hall and Partners (Contract Management) Ltd (2000)).
