Training Overview

Since January 2021, all Project Management Institute-authorized Project Management Professional (PMP)® exam preparation courses have been based on the Institute’s materials and its CHOICE learning management system. If you have taken such a course, but have NOT obtained your PMP® credential, this PMP® refresher course is for you.

The PMP® exam is still based on the sixth edition of the Guide to the Project Management Body of Knowledge (PMBOK® Guide). It is also very much focused on how value is delivered. You might remember that only half of the PMP® exam will test your process knowledge. The rest will test your understanding of people – the role of the project manager, developing and managing the team and engaging with stakeholders – and the business environment.

Also, there is still a strong emphasis on agile project management, with roughly half of the questions having some sort of agile slant.
