   PMP requires more experience without a degree (60 months), not fewer; original had it backwards

   Before

   The Project Management Professional (PMP) certification, issued by PMI, requires 36 months of project management experience (or 24 months with a four-year degree), 35 hours of PM education, and passing a 180-question examination.

   After

   The Project Management Professional (PMP) certification, issued by PMI, requires 36 months of project management experience with a four-year degree (or 60 months without a four-year degree), 35 hours of PM education, and passing a 180-question examination.

   Why: PMI actually requires MORE experience without a four-year degree (60 months), not less; the original article had the relationship backwards. Verified the live article body already reflects the corrected figures. The article's faq field does not mention the PMP experience requirement at all, so no secondary fix was needed there.
