RE: OT: PMI PMP Certification
Contact a PMP friend - here's his take: PMI is in fact changing their exam on August 31st. As I recall, the professional and social responsibility piece will now be tested across all domains-so professional and social responsibility will now be integrated into every area and question. The new exam content outline can be found here: http://www.pmi.org/Certification/Project-Management-Professional-PMP/~/media/PDF/Certifications/PMP%20Examination%20Content%20Outline_2010.ashx I assume this guy already has his 35 contact hours to take the exam and has completed his application and had it approved?Those are two critical steps. If so, then I’d direct him to www.rmcprojectmanagement.com Rita Mulcahy’s company produces study guides for the PMP exam and I’ve heard nothing but great things from my fellow PMPs (including my boss) about her course materials. I’ve taken a couple of PDU earning courses from RMC and I can say they are pretty good. Get a study guide from there, make sure it includes PMP practice exams and cram, cram, cram. Memorize all formulas in the PMBOK.Because you’re not allowed to take ANYTHING into the exam with you at Prometric. Know how to calculated PERT and Earned Value and Schedule and Cost Performance indices, Estimate At Completion, Budget At Completion and the number of communication paths.

I had planned on taking it in around two months, but I just caught wind of the fact PMI is changing it on August 31. So now I’m cramming to see if I can get it done before the change. I took two project management courses in grad school pretty recently, and am currently reading a couple of PMP study guides.

RE: OT: PMI PMP Certification
Thanks-and please thank your PMP friend for me. :-) John From: Shauna Hensala [mailto:she...@msn.com] Sent: Monday, August 01, 2011 4:05 PM To: NT System Admin Issues Subject: RE: OT: PMI PMP Certification Contact a PMP friend - here's his take: PMI is in fact changing their exam on August 31st.As I recall, the professional and social responsibility piece will now be tested across all domains-so professional and social responsibility will now be integrated into every area and question.The new exam content outline can be found here: http://www.pmi.org/Certification/Project-Management-Professional-PMP/~/media/PDF/Certifications/PMP%20Examination%20Content%20Outline_2010.ashxhttp://www.pmi.org/Certification/Project-Management-Professional-PMP/%7E/media/PDF/Certifications/PMP%20Examination%20Content%20Outline_2010.ashx I assume this guy already has his 35 contact hours to take the exam and has completed his application and had it approved?Those are two critical steps. If so, then I'd direct him to www.rmcprojectmanagement.comhttp://www.rmcprojectmanagement.com/ Rita Mulcahy's company produces study guides for the PMP exam and I've heard nothing but great things from my fellow PMPs (including my boss) about her course materials. I've taken a couple of PDU earning courses from RMC and I can say they are pretty good. Get a study guide from there, make sure it includes PMP practice exams and cram, cram, cram.
