course Synopsis:
Beyond academic credentials,
certification by the Project Management Institute (PMI®) as a Project
Management Professional (PMP®) shows the world that you have mastered essential
project management competencies. To earn PMI®'s PMP® credential, you must
demonstrate the required "long-term commitment" to project management
professionalism and pass a 4-hour, 200-question exam, covering all nine areas
of PMI®'s Project Management Body of Knowledge (PMBOK® Guide) and the area of
professional responsibility. Improve your chances of passing the grueling PMP®
certification on the first try with this unique course.
You will find out exactly what you
need to know and how to prepare yourself to fulfill the requirements for each
PMBOK® Guide area. You will become familiar with the makeup and format of the
exam itself by answering multiple-choice questions within each lesson. You will
get a chance to explore the rationale behind each answer with your instructor,
a certified PMP®. In addition, after you've completed the lessons, you'll have
the opportunity to take up to 10 "real-life" practice exams to put
your skills to the test.
You'll receive a copy of ESI's
popular and unique PMP® Challenge!--600 questions on spiral-bound, fully
tabbed flash cards-- as well as the widely acclaimed PMP® Exam Practice Test
and Study Guide", 5th ed., by LeRoy Ward, PMP®. (Note: the
multiple-choice questions presented in this course are taken from ESI'sj "PMP®
Exam Practice Test and Study Guide", 5th ed., by LeRoy Ward, PMP® and "The
Project Management Drill Book: A Self-Study Guide" by Carl L. Pritchard,
PMP®.)
